Famous artists immortalize the things they love most—for Van Gogh, it was the stars over Paris, and for Munch, it was bald men shrieking. Preserve what you love with this Groupon.

Choose Between Two Options

  • $49 for $139 toward a gallery oil painting, which ranges from $134 to $389
  • $79 for $219 toward a custom portrait, which ranges from $209 to $531

DocoArt.com’s gallery selection encompasses original paintings, such as Yellow Illumination, as well as recreations of famous pieces, such as Van Gogh’s Starry Night and Kandinsky’s Farbstudie Quadrate.

Alternatively, customers may submit photos for DocoArt’s commissioned artists to turn into custom portraits; see examples here. Each work is fully customizable, and clients are free to request modifications to their portraits at no additional charge.

Artists paint each oil-paint reproduction by hand without the help of machines. The prices for a gallery piece range from $134 for a 12”x16” painting to $389 for a 48”x60” painting, based on difficulty; custom portraits range from $209 for a 12”x16” painting to $531 for a 24”x36” piece, based on the number of figures. Custom sizes are available upon request. Artists paint each oil-paint reproduction by hand without the help of machines. Each painting comes with a 100% satisfaction guarantee, and ships only after clients pre-approve a proof that they first receive by mail.

DocoArt.com

With the proliferation of online companies turning uploaded images into machine-printed digital canvases, the founders of DocoArt.com decided to do something refreshingly low-tech. Instead of churning out digital prints of customers’ most treasured photos, they handed the images off to commissioned artists and asked them to hand paint custom oil paintings. By working from uploaded photos, DocoArt’s artists continue immortalizing family members, pets, and life-changing moments such as weddings and appeals-court victories. After customers submit their images, the artists go to work, hand painting on 100% cotton canvases that retain the oils better than synthetic ones. DocoArt’s team then emails buyers a digital draft of their custom portrait for either approval or feedback, shipping the finished painting once customers are satisfied.

DocoArt continues supporting its commissioned artists by also putting them to work on gallery paintings, which include reproductions of famous works, as well as original modern images and landscapes. This helps DocoArt not only support established artists but also assist the development of emerging artists.

The Groupon Guide to: Local Commercials

No matter the business, these premises for local commercials are sure to get customers lining up to your door—assuming they watch a lot of daytime and late-night television. Try any of the following ideas:

  • A man in a gorilla costume jumps up and down on a used car for being too expensive.
  • A frighteningly incomplete computer-animated leprechaun says your store’s mattresses “are no SHAM—they ROCK!”
  • A black-and-white close-up of an old woman looking frightened. When the old woman uses your product or service, the picture returns to color as normal.
  • All text! Can’t go wrong with text!
  • Retired minor-league baseball pitcher Carey Mazzuchellio throws a baseball … right at the camera? No, not really, but it sure looks like it once the graphics come together.

How can a local commercial transform your local business?
