{"title":"Forever Artify — Family Gifts","description":"\u003cp\u003eFive commissions for a family, and they divide by what the painting is actually of. Two are painted from a photograph: the couple and family portrait, and the house portrait. Two are built from information rather than an image: the birth flower family print, which gathers each person's birth month flower into one bouquet, and the song lyric print. The fifth is a photo print made as a gift from a niece or nephew to an aunt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow many people fit in one painting?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe couple and family portrait takes one to four, and pets count as one of the four, so a couple with two dogs fills it. If your family is larger than that, the birth flower print is the one that scales — it carries a name per flower rather than a face, so a set of grandparents, children and grandchildren all fit on one sheet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat if nobody has a good photograph?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThen paint the place instead of the people. The house portrait needs only a clear exterior shot, and for a family who have just sold a house or just bought one it often lands harder than a portrait would. The song lyric and birth flower prints need no photograph at all.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat do these cost?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe song lyric print is about CA$33 and the birth flower print about CA$42, both as prints in two or three styles. The house portrait runs from about CA$65 as a digital file to about CA$144 for a 12x18\" (30.5 x 45.7 cm) original, and the family portrait from about CA$65 to about CA$200 depending on how many faces are in it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSee also \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/fa-pet-portrait\"\u003eCustom Pet Portraits\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/fa-couple-gifts\"\u003eCouple \u0026amp; Anniversary Gifts\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/fa-birth-flower\"\u003eBirth Flower Art\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"personalized-aunt-gift-print","title":"Personalized Aunt Gift - Photo Print from Niece or Nephew","description":"\u003cp\u003eA personalized aunt gift: your photo together, turned into a black and white print with her name and the year her niece or nephew was born.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA gift from niece or nephew\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSend any photo of Auntie with the children.
