Please note, Custom Elvis Make-Overs or Custom Paintings are NOT refundable. The most important element in ensuring that you are happy with your custom painting is to submit an accurate photo that accurately depicts what you want painted. The ONLY information the artist has to work off of is the photo that is submitted. We guarantee that the painting will look very similar to the photo submitted, but keep in mind if you submit a picture of someone who is balding, they WILL have hair (Elvis Make-Over) and this often drastically changes the appearance of the “New King”. They will also have side burns which often change the appearance of the width of a persons face. In addition to the perfect photo submission, any extra wording on eye color, facial features, hair color, tattoos, moles, etc is greatly helpful in ensuring that the painting is perfect the first time. The “perfect” photo submission will accurately depict the individual in high clear resolution. A wallet sized photo is no where near ideal. The larger and clearer the photo the better. We do offer up to four revisions at no cost should you not be happy with the painting. After 4 revisions, the painting is yours. We are NOT responsible for the quality or choice of photo submitted. About 99% of our customers are extremely satisfied with their painting, but we have had customers who are not (2 in 6 years)– because they submitted a picture that was of poor quality and did not depict the person properly. Custom paintings are NOT refundable. We thank you in advance for your understanding. Please see a few of our examples for an accurate portrayal of how our custom paintings turn out.
