Our talented portrait painter Liu Fu Da is fully specialized in portrait painting and has many years of experience in the portrait genre. With "fully specialized" Liu Fu Da deals exclusively with portraits and do not paint other types of paintings. His style is naturalistic, which is the type of portrait painting most people like, since it is natural that people want to have portrait paintings that look like the people you love. There is something special about a painting rather than a photo. A photo can be great but it will never be able to achieve the same warmth and charisma as the brushstrokes of a true portrait painter and genuine oil paint. Liu Fu Da is fully competent in painting Scandinavians and you can always comments on a portrait's shades of color, details and special requirements with Liu Fu Da before a portrait painting begins.

Did you order a photo-to-painting your painting will most likely be done by our youngest painter Huang Ji, a master of the naturalistic art. Huang Ji can make things mimic reality very accurately. Still, you should always count on getting a unique product, as the painting is done in the hand by a human instead of being printed out by a machine.
