Anniversary Presents Can be Painted Portraits

When you are short on anniversary gift ideas and you think that you have given your loved one everything, there is one option for you. You can present him or her with a painted portrait of the two of you together, that is if you are not married. If you already have a family and your anniversary is coming up, a painted photo of the whole family is a great gift. A painting of your photo is a unique present which is guaranteed to last for so many years. It is something which you can hold dear to your heart and share with family members from the next generation. Digital prints will never measure up to the classic beauty of painted portraits. It is for a fact that paintings will always hold an aura which is different from digitally-printed images. When you look at a painting, you will see it as a masterpiece which has probably been handed down from generations. If you have your family photo painted and presented as a gift, it will serve as a fresh new way of gift-giving.

Painted portraits of families and loved ones are great anniversary presents. These are masterpieces of a gift which will never amount to other kinds of gifts. Expensive presents such as cars, jewelries, or huge parties do not amount to the beauty of portrait painting. When you give your loved one a car, this will cease to perform after many years. On the other hand, jewelries can seem so vain. The excitement of parties last only within those hours that you spend dancing and mingling with people close to you. But when you give someone a painted portrait, it offers a warm feeling. When you receive a painting from the person that you love, you will always have that wonderful sensation deep inside whenever you look at it. This is something which you will never feel with ordinary gifts.

When you are apt with photo painting, you can paint the portraits of your family yourself. On the other hand, you can always choose to let experts do it. If you want professional painters to do the job, you can look for one over the Internet. Or else, you can look for websites which offer this type of service. One of these sites is Paint Your Life, which provides family portraits or pet portraits. You can choose from mediums such as watercolor, oil, pastel, charcoal, acrylic, and pencil. You can even have your wedding photos put on canvas. If you would like to present your spouse with unique anniversary presents each year, have the photo of the entire family painted.

If you are looking for one-of-a-kind anniversary gift ideas for your parents, portrait paintings are appropriate for them. Whether it may be their golden or silver anniversary, a painted portrait of your parents together can be very heartwarming. Aside from their photograph, you can also have the photo of the whole family painted. Or else, the painting may be of the grandchildren only. However you want the portrait painting to be done or to appear, it will always be a great present to give.

Portrait Painting Atelier (Hardcover) $22.87 The art of portraiture approached its apex during the sixteenth century in Europe with the discovery of oil painting when the old masters developed and refined techniques that remain unsurpassed to this day. The ascendance of nonrepresentational art in the middle of the twentieth century displaced these venerable skills, especially in academic art circles. Fortunately for aspiring artists today who wish to learn the methods that allowed the Old Masters to achieve the luminous color and subtle tonalities so characteristic of their work, this knowledge has been preserved in hundreds of small traditional painting ateliers that persevered in the old ways in this country and throughout the world.Coming out of this dedicated movement, Portrait Painting Atelier is an essential resource for an art community still recovering from a time when solid instruction in art technique was unavailable in our schools. Of particular value here is a demonstration of the Old Masters’ technique of layering paint over a toned-ground surface, a process that builds from the transparent dark areas to the more densely painted lights. This method unifies the entire painting, creating a beautiful glow that illuminates skin tones and softly blends all the color tones. Readers will also find valuable instruction in paint mediums from classic oil-based to alkyd-based, the interactive principles of composition and photograph-based composition, and the anatomy of the human face and the key relationships among its features. Richly illustrated with the work of preeminent masters such as Millet, G¿ricault, and van Gogh, as well as some of today’s leading portrait artists—and featuring seven detailed step-by-step portrait demonstrations—Portrait Painting Atelier is the first book in many years to so comprehensively cover the concepts and techniques of traditional portraiture.
