If you like the idea of customization, and you think family photos are an important element of the home, why not let the creative people and Fawn and Forest make you a [custom digital portrait](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/image-painter) of your child?
Each painting is done by hand on a [high quality canvas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pixybeam) that is 1.5" deep with no framing required. Using a photo provided by the customer, the face is printed on the canvas using archival quality ink. Each painting is unique although there are a few basic templates used. The paintings can be further customized on request.

Once the painting is complete, a sample image is sent to you for final approval and any retouches before ordering.
