Wall Art & Signs
A pet, person or favorite vehicle, made into a portrait, name sign or garage piece.
CUSTOM METAL ART FROM PHOTOS
Your photo. Made in metal.
We turn your photograph into a recognizable cut-steel design, then build and powder coat a piece made for you.
Pets. People. Cars, trucks, motorcycles and boats.
What will your photo become?
Your photo can become any of these. We shape the design around the way you want to use it.
Garden Stakes
Bring your photo into the garden with a personalized stake or yard sign.
Dogs on the Moon
Your own dog’s likeness, built into a custom moon design for a wall or garden.
Portrait Hitch Covers
Bring one pet—or two—together in a photo-based hitch cover. We plan the cut-metal design around your receiver.
Memorials & Tributes
Remember someone important with a portrait, name, dates or a personal message.
Key & Leash Hangers
Turn a favorite face into useful wall art with hooks for keys, leashes and more.
Real photos. Real metalwork.

A few things to know
What kind of photo should I send?
Send the original, highest-resolution photo you have, with good lighting, visible features and a clear outline. Extra angles can help. We simplify small details where needed so the steel stays connected and cuts cleanly.
Can I choose colors, layers and wording?
Yes. We can discuss names, dates, a message, single-layer or layered construction, and powder coat colors. We also plan how the piece will hang, stand or mount. For a hitch cover, include your receiver size.
Explore the Color GalaxyCan you combine photos or subjects?
We can review multiple pets, people or other subjects for one design. Send a clear photo of each and tell us how you’d like them arranged. A pet portrait can celebrate your companion today or become a memorial.
What will it cost, and how long will it take?
Each project is quoted for its artwork, size and construction. Include your deadline so we can discuss production and delivery timing before you commit.
