I’d like my favourite photo transformed into a hand-painted, realistic portrait on ceramic coffee cups. You’ll be working directly from the image I provide, so faithful detail and colour accuracy matter more than stylistic experimentation. The finished cups should be fully cured, food-safe, and sealed well enough to stand up to everyday hand-washing without the artwork lifting or fading. Please let me know: • how many cups you recommend per batch and any size constraints you prefer, • the type of paint and clear coat you normally use for durable, realistic finishes, • your typical turnaround time from sketch approval to shipment, and • what progress snapshots you can share so I can approve likeness before final curing. Once I receive the completed cups in perfect condition—portrait matched, colours true, no chipping—I release final acceptance. If you need any additional reference angles or lighting notes from the original photo, just ask and I’ll send them right away.

Hi, We will deliver a faithful, hand-painted portrait on ceramic cups with colour-accurate tones and a food-safe finish designed to resist everyday hand-washing. We have spent the last 10 years solving exactly this type of problem. Our process begins with a high-resolution illustration study from your photo, followed by art consulting to lock lighting and palette; we then map the composition for product design so the portrait wraps the cup curvature. After sketch approval we paint with professional porcelain/underglaze pigments, fire or bake per material, apply an FDA-compliant clear overglaze, and perform a final cure and hand-wash durability check. We recommend batches of 6-8 cups (standard up to 12 oz) for consistent firing and colour control. Typical turnaround from sketch approval to shipment is 7-14 days. We will share progress snapshots at sketch, pre-glaze painting, and post-cure stages so likeness and colours are approved before final sealing. Thanks, Zeeshan - Please use We,us, our. We are team so dont use I, me.

Hi, I’d love to help turn your favourite photo into a realistic hand-painted portrait on ceramic cups, keeping the likeness and colour accuracy as close as possible to the original image. I’d recommend starting with a small batch of 2–4 cups so the details can stay consistent and carefully finished. My process would begin with a clean sketch placement on the cup, then I’d share progress photos before adding final colour and sealing. For durability, I’d use ceramic-safe paints and a proper curing/sealing process suitable for regular hand-washing. ✅ Likeness approval before final curing ✅ Careful realistic finish, not a loose stylized version Send the photo and I can review the best cup size and layout.
