12 studio styles
These samples were rendered by the same engine you will be using. Each one applies its own rules for line, colour and texture rather than layering a filter over your photo.
One unbroken stroke, endlessly elegant
The whole portrait drawn as a single continuous line. Minimal, modern and impossible to look away from — our most-loved style for hallways and bedside walls.
Loose brushwork with quiet drama
Sumi-e inspired washes of diluted black ink. Soft gradients, confident edges, and a hand-painted stillness that suits calm interiors.
Blooming pigment, feather-light edges
Translucent layers of pigment that bleed into the paper, with edges that dissolve into white. Warm, sentimental, and the best seller for gifts.
Your favourite face, but nobility
Renaissance oil painting treatment complete with velvet robes, medals and a dignified pose. Equal parts stately and hilarious.
Bold blocks, loud joy
Flat screen-printed colour, heavy outlines and halftone dots. Built to be the brightest thing in the room.
Fine linework framed in botanicals
A precise pen portrait wrapped in a wreath of pressed wildflowers and foliage. Delicate, feminine, endlessly giftable.
Glowing edges against deep dark
The portrait rebuilt as glowing neon tubing on near-black — drawn light rather than photographed light. A modern statement piece for studios and game rooms.
Layered shapes, tactile depth
The portrait rebuilt from stacked cut-paper shapes with real drop shadows. Graphic, warm and unusually tactile.
Your photograph, print-ready
For when the photograph is already the thing you love. No illustration and no reinterpretation — we clean it up, correct the colour and light, and prepare it for archival printing, so what arrives is your own picture at its best.
Try this style
Built for the needle, six colours flat
Designed for embroidery rather than adapted to it. The portrait is reduced to clean closed shapes in a handful of flat colours — the way a needle actually lays thread — so what arrives on the garment is what you approved on screen.
One colour, one confident run of stitch
A single-colour outline portrait with a deliberately heavy line, so it reads clearly at badge size on a chest or a cuff. The simplest thing to stitch well, and the cleanest at small scale.
A crest, the way a badge is really made
Your portrait as a stitched crest: a bold, simplified head inside a clean border, in four or five flat colours. Designed to read instantly from across a room, which is what a chest badge has to do.
Not sure which one
Restyling is free, so the sensible way to choose is to see your own subject in each hand rather than judging someone else's dog.
