International Portrait Orders and Delivery
Since 2005, Sketchus has been creating hand-painted and hand-drawn portraits from photos. Customers from many countries can order their portrait online – with personal consultation, international delivery, and real artists who create each image by hand.
Can I order a Sketchus portrait from abroad?
Yes. Sketchus has been working with customers from various countries for many years. Through Sketchus.com, international customers can order a hand-painted portrait in English. For Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, Sketchus.de remains the German-language main site.
International customers most frequently order family portraits, memorial portraits, pet portraits, and personal gifts for parents, grandparents, partners, or friends. Even multiple people from different photos can be combined into a single hand-painted portrait.
International Delivery to Europe, USA, UK, Canada, and Australia
Sketchus supports international orders from many important regions. Orders are placed online, communication can be in English, and our support team is happy to help with any questions.
Europe
Customers from countries such as the Netherlands, Denmark, Sweden, Poland, France, Italy, Spain, Belgium and other European countries can order via Sketchus.com, provided their country is available at checkout.
For many European countries, ordering is particularly easy, as shipping and payment within Europe can usually be handled without complications.
USA & Canada
Customers from the USA and Canada can also order a hand-painted portrait from Sketchus. Family portraits, pet portraits, and personalized gifts from photos are particularly popular there.
For international deliveries outside of Europe, delivery may take a little longer. Please allow some extra time for fixed deadlines.
Great Britain & Ireland
Customers from the UK and Ireland can order via Sketchus.com in English. If the portrait is intended as a gift for a specific date, we recommend contacting us early.
Our team will be happy to help assess whether standard or express production is appropriate.
Australia, New Zealand & selected countries in Asia
Depending on availability at checkout, customers from Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Singapore, and other countries can also order. For more distant countries, shipping time should be planned more generously.
If you are unsure whether delivery to your country is possible, please feel free to contact us beforehand.
Express Production also for International Customers
If a portrait is needed as a gift by a certain date, express production can often be chosen. Depending on the subject, style, size, and complexity, production is possible from 7 days.
For international orders, the actual arrival may take approximately 1–2 days longer due to shipping, depending on the country. For countries outside Europe, customs, local delivery, or holidays may affect additional time. Therefore, we recommend contacting us early for fixed deadlines.

No AI – Real Handwork by Artists
Since 2005, Sketchus.de has been creating hand-painted and hand-drawn portraits from photos. The portraits are created by real artists by hand – no AI image, no digital print, and no automatic filter.
AI can generate images quickly. A hand-painted portrait is created differently: it requires time, attention, experience, and a feeling for the person, animal, or memory behind the photo. That is precisely why many customers choose Sketchus.
