Order a Custom Painting

Custom oil or watercolor Paintings created from your photos and personal preferences.

This commission service is separate from live wedding painting and is completed in my studio using your selected reference photo.

From meaningful portraits and beloved pets to beautiful landscapes, I transform your favorite photo into an original piece of fine art designed to last a lifetime.

Every painting is personally hand-painted by Diane Mowery as an original work of fine art and includes a certificate of authenticity.

A commissioned painting simply means artwork created specifically for you from your photo or idea.
