Be most unique and personal in expressing your feelings for your loved ones and those who you most care for: give them that very special, personal gift, an art creation of your own inspiration and creative thinking, for a most affordable price.

Now we can help you transform a cherished photo into a tasteful drawing hand made by a real artist, and give this unique art creation as your gift to your loved ones. Be it a portrait of yourself or of someone else who is important to you, a family photo or with friends, an inspiring photo souvenir taken during a family trip, or your family pet. Or, this can be a gift with a smile -- what about a joyful, tasteful caricature handed over to a close relative, a beloved friend, an appreciated employee, or even to.... yourself, displayed in a way that no photo can ever depict?

All you have to do is to initiate our easy, self-explanatory order process from any point you wish in our site. Once started, this process will guide you through, from start to end: How to upload your model photo, which artist and what color style to choose, payment and confirmation of your order. You will find that there's practically no need for you to bother with mail, telephone calls or email, in order to send your photograph or instructions to us. 

Of course, if you prefer to mail us your photos or your payment by mail, or if you prefer to communicate with us using email, telephone or snail-mail, we'll be always glad to serve you according to your preferences. After placing your order, we will transfer your photo or photos to the artist of your choice, who normally completes the artwork within well-defined time limits. It can take the artist approximately one week to complete a simple caricature or a pencil, charcoal or pastel portrait. If your order consists of an oil painting, or a larger-scale portrait including more than one person or a full-figure portrait, then time limits may extend into two, three or four weeks, depending on the type of your artwork. 

In the case of a simple, single-image portrait, it usually takes no more than two weeks turnaround time (from order to delivery) for your personal, completed original piece of art to arrive to you by mail delivery. Or maybe to be delivered, as a surprise gift, to someone you love?

When ordering an original photo transformation artwork, you will have an option to accompany the photo with some instructions, should you like the artist to apply specific results to the drawing. This can be done, for example, to fit your own choice of a customized scene, background, or a retouch of the photograph's "real" background.

Our artists are located in Montreal, Canada, in a fascinating French-European milieu just across the US-Canada border. Here, in a tourist hub and destination, thrives a vivid artistic community, a colorful mosaic of skilled, highly-qualified artists and painters from ethnically diverse origins, from Europe, Asia, Africa, and of course those who are native to North America. 

Each of these artists has completed an average of hundreds of hand-drawn, commissioned portraits; most of our artists practice diverse types of artwork, according to their artistic preferences: One concentrates more on black-and-white portraits, others draw more nude, others yet draw pets and animals, landscapes, or make graphic design. They apply a variety of artistic approaches, such as expressionism and surrealism. Several of our artists had presented their works in exhibitions, and many have majored their studies in respected art institutions.

We at artpiazza.com are committed to serve you in the most efficient manner possible, and to deliver the artistic photo transformation that will accommodate and surpass your expectations.  This serves as our fundamental concept. If you will not be satisfied with the final result, for any reason, simply mail us back your ordered artwork and we will refund your payment in full.
