We are a family-run art studio based in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, with a journey spanning over 12 years and two major transformations. First, we streamlined our services to focus exclusively on custom portraiture. Then, we further refined our niche, dedicating ourselves entirely to a unique specialty—custom WSJ-style hedcuts. The success of this shift inspired us to bring our hedcut portrait service online under a new brand, DotArt, allowing us to reach a global audience.

Passionate about stipple illustration, we are committed to delivering exceptional quality and customer satisfaction. Our dedication has earned us a strong reputation and recognition. We invite you to explore our gallery to see examples of our work and get a sense of what to expect when commissioning a portrait. Feel free to reach out to us at info@dotart.ca with any inquiries.

The process of ordering a custom portrait is simple: (1) You send us a photo with any special requirement and make a down payment. (2) We draw your portrait and send you the work in digital format (jpeg or pdf) in two to five days. (3) You can request modifications if you are not 100% satisfied.
