People should honor their special friendship bond through meaningful celebrations. At Portraithy, we paint your best friend’s picture as a beautiful hand-painted oil portrait. The artwork represents more than visual art because it represents the collection of your shared memories together with laughter and deep friendships.
You should purchase our custom best friend portraits to express friendship value as well as serve as birthday or anniversary gifts.
The process of creating a friendship painting that your friends will keep as mementoes remains straightforward. Here’s how it goes:
Step 1 – Upload your photo
Select a memorable photo that shows you and your friends in a special moment whether it was during travel or a celebration or a random snapshot that brings happiness. The result will be best when you choose a picture with sufficient lighting that displays facial expressions clearly. Our staff stands ready to assist you when you need help selecting the best image from your options. We can combine elements between different photos to include all participants.
Step 2 – Choose your size
Decide on the canvas size and orientation you want. We offer sizes from 8×10″ (20×25 cm) to 32×39″ (80×100 cm); larger custom sizes ship rolled in a tube. You can also suggest a specific background to match your vibe.
Step 3 – Our artists bring it to life
The artists at Portraithy will start painting your portrait with oil paints on high-quality canvas after you confirm your photo selection. The artists dedicate careful brush strokes to create an artistic representation of your friendship. The final product consists of real fine art which combines textured and deep elements rather than basic digital filter effects.
Step 4 – Preview and approve
A photo of your finished painting will be sent to you before we ship it. You can request free revisions during this review. Your portrait ships only after you approve it.
Step 5 – Receive your custom portrait
Your painting arrives at your doorstep in secure packaging so you can display it or give it to someone else. The worldwide shipping service at our company ensures that your friends located anywhere will receive a beautiful symbol of your friendship.

Kate did a custom portrait of my best friend’s wedding as a wedding gift. It turned out absolutely fabulous! They were stunned when they received it. Trustpilot

This painting absolutely exceeded my expectations. So detailed and colors were beyond perfect. I had someone who was not in the picture added and you couldn’t tell they weren’t there to begin with. Customer service was wonderful. Very responsive even with our time zone difference. This was a present to my best friend who’s grandmother passed away and when she opened the package she immediately started crying. I highly recommend this artist. Beyond talented and greatly appreciated for this. Trustpilot

From start to finish, Kate did such a fantastic job. She was so communicative throughout the whole process, and it was very clear that her primary goal was the best possible product that would also capture the spirit of the photo I sent her. The painting was packed and shipped internationally with such care. It was better in person than I could have even imagined. My best friend recently lost one of her dogs and the painting perfectly exuded the happiness of the two of them together. Would ABSOLUTELY recommend Kate and her beautiful work! Trustpilot

Absolutely amazing. I have ordered several paintings, and every single one is amazing and perfect. From the communication to the details of the paintings and shipping, I cannot recommend them enough. They are extremely friendly and great to work with. I’ve never had an issue with them and they go above and beyond to make sure their customers are satisfied with their order. Basically, if something is wrong with it, it’s on the customer, not them, because they are that good. I NEVER leave reviews like this, but there is nothing negative to say about them. If you are in the US, there may be a slight delay in them responding, however, they are based in the UK so there is a time zone difference, and they are busy, so keep that in mind. They will even recognize frames and, given the option to use their creativity, they go above and beyond. 100% recommend and I can’t say enough good things about them. If you want an amazing painting, go with them.
