We create custom metal portraits from photos of dogs, other pets, people, and vehicles. The image is reworked into a design that can be cut from steel and powder coated, not printed onto a metal sheet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrom the original photo to a metal design\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe subject's outline, expression, and recognizable features guide the artwork.

Good lighting, an unobstructed face or profile, and one main subject usually make the idea easier to assess. Multiple-subject layouts can be reviewed individually.
