Our color portraits are our most popular style — vibrant, full of life, and a perfect addition to any room. We can even transform old black and white photos into full color to bring the past back to life.
With this option, we'll draw you as a character of your choice with a patterned background. Just include a photo of the character and/or tell us who it is in the order instructions. You can describe your background, upload a reference, or choose from the options in the video gallery.

Special Gift
Just wanted to say how pleased I was with the recent gift I received from my daughter of the drawing of my late son, with his niece and nephew that he never got to meet. My son died in 2008 from injuries in a motorcycle accident. My daughter at the time had just turned 17 and my son was 3 months shy his 20th birthday. My daughter had her first child a daughter in 2020 and the following Christmas she purchased a drawing of my late son with my granddaughter incorporated into the drawing. Well this Christmas she purchased another one of your drawings for me with this one having my late son and her daughter and her now 2 year old son in it. I will cherish these pictures. They are so wonderful.

Amazing Work!
My father’s mother passed away before he was able to see her again. My dad’s last family photo was taken when he was a child so I wanted to create an updated one for him to keep forever. The drawing was more amazing than I could have ever imagined and it gave my dad a new memory to keep close to his heart. I cannot thank you enough for creating this for my dad.

Beautiful
I am beyond thrilled with the drawing I received. My daughter turned 7 a few days ago and she asked for a picture of her with her great-grandma. My grandmother passed away almost 9 months to the day before my daughter was born. My grandma never knew I was pregnant with her, let alone got to meet. Ever since my daughter was a baby, though, she has always looked at and talked to a picture of my grandmother as if they were old friends. Of all the gifts she received for her birthday this year, she said this portrait was her favorite. Thank you!

Wonderful Father's Day Gift
My Husband's father passed away years ago. I never met him. Ever since then I try to make sure that I include his father in our major life events. I had a picture made of his dad helping him with his tie on our wedding day. I am attaching a video of him opening it. You can see how much he loved this picture! Thank you so much for doing a great job. Now he doesn't have to miss out on his dad not being around for the special events in his life!

The Perfect Mother's Day Gift
We came to DrawKing to do the impossible. To create a family picture for my mother in law. She has 7 adult children,one of which sadly passed. She had no pictures with herself and all of her children. I submitted multiple images of the 9 people that would need to be in this picture and they pulled it all together beautifully. My mother-in-law cried opening it and my father-in-law was floored by how nice it was. We will continue to use and recommend DrawKing to others.
He done a great job. We are waiting for our canvas to come in to give to a friend. But great work as always. This is my second time using this company and can’t complain about nothing
