CUSTOM BACKGROUNDS
Adding Meaning to Your Portrait
A portrait is more than just an image—it’s a story. While the subject of the painting is the star, the background can add depth, emotion, and personal significance to the piece. That’s why I offer two background options for my custom paintings: fully personalized backgrounds and a selection of pre-existing designs that can beautifully complement your artwork.
Custom Backgrounds: A Personal Touch
For those who want a background that tells a deeper story, I can create something entirely unique. Whether it’s the backyard where your dog loved to run, a favorite hiking trail, or a meaningful landscape that holds special memories, a fully custom background adds another layer of sentiment to your portrait. This option does require an additional fee, as it’s designed specifically for your painting.
Pre-Existing Backgrounds: A Beautiful, Budget-Friendly Option
If you prefer a polished look without the added cost of a fully custom design, you can select from my collection of pre-existing backgrounds—previously painted settings that work well with a variety of subjects. These backgrounds offer a seamless way to elevate your portrait while keeping the focus on the subject.

No matter which option you choose, the goal is always the same—to create a piece of art that feels timeless, meaningful, and uniquely yours. If you’re not sure which background would work best, I’m happy to help guide the decision!
