Still Together

"Still Together" is a deeply touching portrait that celebrates enduring love and lifelong companionship. The artist captures a quiet intimacy — two figures seated closely, their expressions soft yet filled with the weight of shared years and unspoken understanding. For Still Together, the relationships between the subjects guide the composition — proximity, gaze direction, hands.

A group portrait like Still Together works best from a photo where everyone is at a similar distance from the camera and in the same light. If only separate photos exist, send the best one of each subject and a group photo that shows them in the right scale and relationship.

Background choices for Still Together include: keep the source-photo setting, simplify to neutral tones, or swap to a solid color that suits the room it will hang in. Clothing and accessory details follow the source photo by default; if you want a change of outfit or accent, mention it before the painter begins.

As a gift, Still Together suits family occasions — anniversaries, generational milestones, holidays where the group is together; as a display piece, it belongs in a shared room of the home. Hang the portrait in a room the family uses together — living room or dining room — rather than in a guest area.

Each portrait is brought up by one painter from start to finish, in oil on stretched canvas. Each face is resolved separately first, then the group is unified through consistent light and shared atmosphere — that is how the portrait reads as a single scene rather than separate cut-outs. Still Together is finished with the standard oil-painting drying cycle and a clear final varnish; it is built to age well rather than to look freshly painted forever.
