Art & See is a custom oil painting service that hand-paints museum-quality reproductions of famous artworks and custom portraits from your photos, using traditional oil on canvas by skilled master artists.
What is Art & See?
Art & See offers hand-painted oil painting reproductions of iconic masterpieces and personalized oil portraits. You send a reference photo or choose from over 33,000 available artworks in their catalog, and a trained artist paints it from scratch on high-grade canvas using British Windsor & Newton oil paints. No prints, no digital manipulation, no AI. The service is run by a team of classically trained artists with 15+ years of experience, based in multiple studios worldwide.

What can you do with Art & See?
- Commission a reproduction of a famous painting: Browse the catalog (e.g., Starry Night, Girl with a Pearl Earring) and order a hand-painted copy in your chosen size. The artist matches the original's color, brushwork, and emotion.
- Create a custom portrait from a photo: Upload any photo (person, pet, landscape) and specify preferred style, size, and framing. The artist paints a one-of-a-kind portrait that captures likeness and character.
- Customize an existing painting: Request modifications to dimensions, color scheme, or composition (as seen in customer reviews) — the team accommodates changes before starting.
How does it work?
- Choose a painting from the catalog or submit your own photo via the custom orders page. Select size, framing, and any modifications.
- A master artist paints your piece by hand on canvas using traditional oils. Production time varies based on complexity (customer reviews note it takes time but is worth the wait).
- Receive unedited photos of the finished painting for approval. Request free revisions if needed.
- Once approved, the painting is packaged and shipped via insured courier. You can track delivery door-to-door.
