Frequently Asked Questions

We can turn any photo into a painting. However, best results are achieved when the photos are clear, and our artists can clearly see the details of your photo.

We recommend the following things for best results:

1. Your photos should be at the highest resolution (no less than 1024X768)

2. Send your favorite photos, since our artists cannot recreate something that is not already there

You may send your picture in .jpeg, .gif, .bmp, or.tiff. format. If your photos are in a Word, Powerpoint, or a PDF file, then you may send those as well. Please try to send photos with the highest resolution possible

 

If you dont have your photos in digital format you can mail them to the following address:
Painting4Ever
616 Corporate Way, Suite 2-3486
Valley Cottage, NY 10989
