Instead, you could use the antique doll as your inspiration! So, if the doll has a beautiful lace dress, you could use that as the starting point and build the rest of the painting around it.

Investigation is the Key to Painting an Artwork Present They’ll Absolutely Love
So, you’re thinking of gifting a painting but you’re not sure just exactly how to choose the right one to make. Today, we’ll talk about the big questions you need to ask to brainstorm a list of ideas for the painting’s main focus, as well as the absolute dos and don’ts of giving art as a gift.
The secret to creating a painting that will wow them is all about the detective work you do before beginning the art project. If you don’t do your homework up front, you run the risk of the receiver reacting in a way that’s not exactly what you were shooting for.
Don’t stress about it, though. With the brainstorming questions, tips, and suggestions, based on my years of being a personal shopper in an art gallery, you’ll knock it out of the ballpark! Let’s get this party started!
Why You Should Give Your Art as a Gift
Giving art as a gift is a wonderful way to show somebody just how special they are to you. If you’re like me, each gift you choose is done with forethought and care no matter where it comes from but giving someone something that you’ve put your heart, soul, and time into, ups the ante big time. Plus, you never have to worry that someone else is going to give them the same thing!
The very first thing you need to think about is your money and time budget. If you’ve painted before you know that it’s going to take you a minute to plan your course of action and to actually get the gift painted.
You’ll also need to make a list of supplies and give yourself enough time to get to the nearest art supply store to pick up whatever you don’t already have.
Real Talk: We all know that a trip to the art store is going to take time. Lots and lots of time, am I right?
7 Questions To Help You Plan What To Paint As A Present
The biggest mistake I see beginners make, when gifting a painting, is they’ll see a tutorial or reference image, that seems perfect for the occasion when the focus should really be on the receiver. If you always keep the person you’re giving the painting to in the forefront of your mind, you have a great chance of painting something they’ll enjoy long after the special event has passed.
If you really want to knock their socks off, try to answer as many of the following questions as you can and make notes. Once you’ve finished this brainstorming session, you’ll have a whole list of options that will make a piece of wall art that’s filled with meaning and worthy of gifting!
Question #1: What is their home decor style?
If you could characterize their decorating style, how would you describe it? Make a list of what stands out to you. Think about what kind of furniture they have, what kind of trinkets do they have, is the living space very streamlined and minimalistic, or is it more eclectic?
The more you can dissect what the person chooses to surround themselves with, the easier it will be to paint something that they’ll appreciate and will have no trouble finding a spot to hang it.
To get you started, if the person you’re gifting a painting to has frilly lace curtains, lots of dried flowers, and the overall style is feminine and muted, it wouldn’t be a good idea to paint an abstract cityscape with bright primary colors, right?
Take your cues from what they already have and you’ll be well on your way to creating a painting that they’ll instantly love.
Question # 2: What other art do they have on their walls?
This goes with the first question and you’ll want to make a list that describes any other art that they already have hung in their home. Are they colorful? Are they landscapes? Are they ocean scenes? Are they abstract? Are they all by the same artist? Whatever you can make a note of will make it easier for you to decide what the focus should be when gifting a painting.
But, what do you do if they don’t have any art on their walls? Don’t worry! This just means that answering the other questions listed will be even more important. The whole point here is to create a list of choices for you so not being able to answer all of the questions isn’t a big deal.
Question #3: What’s their favorite color?
You can absolutely base an entire painting on their favorite color. In this case, your main focus will be adding color to the painting in a way that draws the eye to it. So, maybe you’ll paint a flower where the background is painted in muted colors so that the flower, that’s painted in the main color, really pops.
Once you’ve decided what to use as the main color, be sure to check out my article explaining the color wheel and how to choose other colors that will compliment the main color.
Extra Tip: Make sure that you’re using the color that is most prominent in their home décor and not a color that you see them wearing often. The two are very rarely the same. I love wearing pink but the main pop of color in my home décor is red. If someone were gifting me a painting that was heavy on the color pink, I’d have a hard time making it fit in with what I already have. Make sense?
Question # 4: Do you know what their favorite flower is?
What is better than giving someone a bouquet of their favorite flowers where they don’t have to water them and they’ll never die! It’s a very easy way to incorporate something that they love and florals are a very popular option.
Question #5: What about hobbies or interests?
Do they like to golf? Are they into sailing? Maybe they’re into antiquing and flea markets. All of these little tidbits are going to help you to create a painting that will make them feel special and, really, that is the whole goal. Every time they look at the painting it will give them a positive feeling or remind them of good times.
Question #6: Do they have a favorite place?
Another idea is to paint a landscape from a meaningful place. Maybe it’s the place where your person and their significant other were engaged, maybe it’s a place that they used to live that they miss a lot, it could even be a favorite place that they like to visit when they’re on vacation. Again, when gifting a painting, the focus should be on something that is customized to the recipient.
Question #7: What’s their favorite season?
Seasons are pretty easy to paint because there are a ton of YouTube painting tutorials that you could follow. Just type “acrylic painting tutorial *insert season*” and you will have like a gazillion options to choose from. For instance, you could paint a scarecrow to represent the fall, a cherry blossom for spring, an ocean sunset would make a gorgeous summer painting, and a snowy forest with an icy lake would be perfect for winter.
