Make mine The Old MasterFree preview: pay only if you love it. Digital files only; printing not included.
Illustrative examples made by AI. Your pet’s portrait is made from your own photo, so it will be unique and may differ from these.
What it looks like
Inspired by 17th-century Dutch portrait painting: your pet’s head and chest, natural and dignified, lit by soft light from one side against a deep warm umber and olive-brown background. Rich glazes, visible brushwork and fine fur detail give it an heirloom feel. There’s no clothing, collar, jewellery or props, just your pet.
Pets and photos that suit it
Calm, soulful faces suit it beautifully, but any pet works. Pale and mid-tone coats glow against the dark background; very dark coats come out moodier. Use a sharp photo with the face and chest visible and light coming from one side if you can.
Gift ideas
A classic gift for birthdays, Christmas and Mother’s or Father’s Day, and a dignified way to remember a much-loved pet. It suits a study, a hallway or above a fireplace.
Printing and framing
Matte paper or canvas suits the oil-painting texture. An antique gold or dark timber frame completes the gallery look. The print-ready file is 3072 × 4608 px (2:3), sharp at A4 or 8 × 12 in; we recommend A3 or 12 × 18 in as the largest. The Bundle adds 8 × 10 in and A4/A3 layouts.
The Old Master questions
Is it a real oil painting?
No. It’s a digital portrait made by AI in the look of a classical oil painting, delivered as a high-resolution JPEG you can print anywhere.
How is it different from Royal Highness?
Royal Highness dresses your pet in a crown and robes. The Old Master keeps your pet natural, with no costume, in a quiet painted portrait.
Can I add my pet’s name?
Yes. Add a name before you make the preview and it can be lettered into the artwork. The Bundle also includes a version without the name.
Will it look good on canvas?
Yes, the painterly texture suits canvas at 30 × 45 cm (12 × 18 in) or smaller.
Do you deliver worldwide?
Yes, because there’s nothing to ship. Your portrait is an instant digital download, so you can order from anywhere and print it at a local photo lab, an online print service or at home. Prices show in your local currency where available.
