Graduation Portrait Commissions

Campus portrait, graduate portrait, or diploma-day photograph — a real watercolor painting commemorating the degree. Multi-subject composition for families.

Graduation is a short window — gowns get packed away fast. A watercolor of the graduate in cap and gown, or of the campus building that defined four years, becomes the gift the family keeps on the wall. PrecisionPencil paints from photograph, supports multi-subject composition for family-with-graduate pieces, and ships in time for graduation dates when ordered 3+ weeks out.

Included

  • Graduate portrait from cap-and-gown photograph
  • Campus building or landmark watercolor
  • Family-with-graduate composition from separate photos
  • Order 3+ weeks before graduation for on-time delivery

Common questions

How far ahead should I order for graduation?

3+ weeks ideal. 14-day turnaround plus 2–5 days shipping means 19 days is the comfortable minimum.
