Since 2009
Johannes Nygren creates handmade portraits at a favourable price. Here you will find information on how to order hand painted or drawn portraits.
The price of a portrait of a person usually costs between 500 - 3500 SEK. The price varies depending on the level of detail and technique.
I who run JNArt, Johannes Nygren, have worked as an artist since 2009 and created lots of handmade portraits of women, men, older and younger.
The time to create and deliver a hand-painted or drawn portrait is typically between 2 to 4 weeks, sometimes less.
The first step to placing an order is to make an order enquiry by emailing, filling in the form below or calling.
Why order portraits by JNArt?
I who will create your portrait live in Sweden, Gothenburg but grew up in Arvidsjaur, Lapland. It is always an honour to help realise the client's vision. I help create a keepsake and decoration for the home that can last for generations. In addition to painting portraits, I have a long experience of helping people in previous jobs. I am passionate about the individual finding life meaning and inspiration. If my portraits can help show the beauty of a person's interior and exterior, I have succeeded in my mission. Here are some reasons why I think you should commission me.
We had good and smooth communication, and the promised completion date was marginally met.
I have nothing but superlatives as a judgement and can highly recommend JNArt!
So incredibly detailed and the resemblance between the painting and the actual dogs is striking. Responsive artist who adapted to the wishes that existed.
Highly recommend JNArt!!!
What's the process of ordering a handmade portrait?
Delivery information
How long does it take to order a portrait painting or portrait drawing?
A drawing or painting in watercolour, acrylic or digital medium usually takes 2-4 weeks to create and deliver. Oil painting takes more time.
For an additional cost, it is sometimes possible to create and deliver the artwork in a week. You can always ask if this is possible.
Sometimes JNArt has a long queue, which unfortunately means that it will take longer to deliver a work.
How are portraits delivered?
Once the portrait is finished, it is wrapped in plastic and cardboard to protect it during the delivery. So far, JNArt has not experienced any incidents of damaged or lost paintings.
Postnord, a traceable shipment, is used for the delivery of parcels.
If you live near the Gothenburg area, you can avoid the shipping costs by picking up the artwork. JNArt has its studio in Majorna.
Advance payment
Once the customer has seen a copy of the finished caricature, the full amount is paid in advance including shipping. The image is sent as soon as the transaction is registered. Shipping costs 100 - 300 SEK depending on the size of the parcel.
In some cases, trusted customers may be given the opportunity to pay afterwards. This also applies to business customers.
Choose the techniques / medium for your portrait
Here are examples of the techniques JNArt uses. Watercolour, oil, acrylic, pencil, marker, charcoal, digital or a combination.

Different formats
You can order paintings and drawings in different formats. The most common formats are A5, A4, A3 or A2. These standard formats are favourable because you can buy the passepartout and frame more cheaply. But the possibilities don't stop there, larger or smaller formats also work, both for paintings and drawings.
Style or genre
Do you want JNArt to take inspiration from any image you find on this page, or any other painting or genre you found on the internet? Then you can attach pictures and describe what you are looking for and JNArt will get back to you if it is possible.
Here are examples of a realistic style. But JNArt can also create with abstract, graphic, naive or experimental and flowing portraits.
Level of detail
The level of detail in a portrait affects the price, as it usually takes longer to create a more detailed portrait. As the client, you have the option to request a level of detail that suits you. JNArt can create anything from sketchy quick portraits to hyper-realistic and photographic ones.
The highest level of detail here is not the most detailed JNArt paints/draws, but rather a level where you get a detailed portrait at a good price. If you would like to order an even more detailed portrait or photographic portrait, you can contact JNArt for pricing information.

These price examples are approximate
Each painting has individual conditions, so JNArt cannot give an exact price until you send your order request and explain what you want to be included in your painting.
Additions such as another face, detailed clothing or a detailed background will lead to a price increase of about 50-100%.
Describe the person
I will do my very best to ensure that you get a personalised picture. You are welcome to describe the person, and what the relationship looks like between the person in the subject and the person who will get the picture. A vivid description gives me the opportunity to make a beautiful and personalised image.
Framing
The artworks are sent unframed unless this service is requested
It is cheaper for the customer to frame the picture themselves or stretch it on a wedge frame.
For best results, it is recommended to submit the image to a professional framer.
If you order framing from JNArt
Watercolours, drawings and prints are framed with passepartout and a white or black frame.
Acrylic and oil paintings are stretched on wedge frames, like a canvas. JNArt does not currently make more advanced framing than wedge frames.
Framing costs 1500-2500 SEK depending on the type. This includes labour, shipping and cost of material.
