Custom Portrait Coffee Cup Art

I’d like my favourite photo transformed into a hand-painted, realistic portrait on ceramic coffee cups. You’ll be working directly from the image I provide, so faithful detail and colour accuracy matter more than stylistic experimentation. The finished cups should be fully cured, food-safe, and sealed well enough to stand up to everyday hand-washing without the artwork lifting or fading.

Please let me know:
• how many cups you recommend per batch and any size constraints you prefer,
• the type of paint and clear coat you normally use for durable, realistic finishes,
• your typical turnaround time from sketch approval to shipment, and
• what progress snapshots you can share so I can approve likeness before final curing.

Once I receive the completed cups in perfect condition—portrait matched, colours true, no chipping—I release final acceptance. If you need any additional reference angles or lighting notes from the original photo, just ask and I’ll send them right away.
