Welcome to Orchid
What We Do
Our artists can paint any artwork in any style, and in superb quality. Each commission is painted in oils on 100% cotton canvas. Here at Orchid, we can accommodate orders of all sizes, from private customers, to large organisations, including art galleries and museums. You can now own a stunning artwork, painted in the same style and using the same techniques as the original artist, and you’ll get all of this, at a very competitive price.
If you would prefer an artwork that isn’t oil on canvas, we can work with a multitude of mediums, including oil, acrylic, pastel, watercolour, pencil, colour pencil and charcoal. You can choose any painting by any artist, whether they’re on our website or not. Once you have made your choice, just let us know if you have any special requirements, including alternative sizes or even, a painting in a different style to the original, you can talk to us about anything at the following email address: - sales@orchidfineart.com

The Re-creation of a Masterpiece
Below, you can see the progress of a painting reproduction in a series of steps. If a painting is particularly complex, more steps will be required. We have chosen a self-portrait by Vincent van Gogh to show you. Vincent painted many self-portraits and this one is entitled, “Self-Portrait with Grey Felt Hat”, originally painted in the winter of 1887-1888 (oil on canvas) and conserved at the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam.
Step 1: The artist plans out and draws the essential lines on the canvas.
Step 2: The first layer of paint is applied, this layer contains the underlying colours of the portrait, without any detail.
Step 3: Here, the background is blocked in and the artist begins to add detail.
Step 4: Our artist continues to work on the portrait, emulating van Gogh’s characteristic brushstrokes.
Step 5: The painting starts to come alive as more definition and colour is added.
Step 6: The completed deluxe quality painting, ready for inspection and customer approval.
