Painting a Portrait from a Photo

[daveco23]

I want to get a painting done of my folks on their wedding day from an old photo I found.
Has anybody done this? What galleries/ Online sites are there that do this?

Thanks

There's a photoshop on Lower Abbey Street (just at the inbound Luas stop) that does this kind of thing, they alwasy have the photos and the finished portrait on display.

A friend of mine got a painting done of my parents from an wedding day photo for me as a surprise birthday present. She used a artist friend of hers and he did a lovely job. Unfortunately, don't know how much it cost! If you know any aspiring artists.....

Where in the country are you? if near dublin there's a gallery on the top floor of the stephen's green centre that does them and also a stand in the jervis centre on the second level.
