The Custom Pastel Portrait is the first pre-made design we've launched as part of the Studio Service, with more designs coming in different styles and formats over time.
It's a pastel-style portrait made from a photo you upload, with a few structured choices so the result feels personal without requiring a full custom brief.
Select your preferences.
When you order a Custom Pastel Portrait, you'll fill out a short form alongside your photo upload:
- Position. Facing left, facing center, or facing right.
- Background color. Pick from six timeless shades: warm grey, slate blue, setting plaster, cream, sage green, or dark brown.
- Outfit. A short description of what you'd like the subject to be wearing.
- Subject's name. Optional, helpful for the artist to have.
- Special instructions. Optional free-text field for anything else the artist should know.
What's included and how pricing works:
The price you see on the product page includes the below. You enter your preferences in the studio fields, upload your reference image, pick the print product you want, and check out.
- The custom artwork (+$50)
- 1 round of revisions
- The print product of your choice (you select the material and size at checkout)
- A high-resolution digital download
What happens after you order:
An Éphé artist creates your portrait. You'll receive an email with a private link to preview it. You can approve the piece or request a revision directly from that page. Once approved, your high-resolution digital file is emailed to you (and lives in My Art Gallery), and your print or canvas is sent to our print labs.
Is this the right fit?
If you love this style of artwork, this is the perfect fit! If you have a specific vision that doesn't fit the pre-made design option (for example, combining elements from multiple photos, extending the frame of a photo, or a very specific composition), consider our fully custom option instead.
