Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a commissioned painting take?
Once your 50% deposit is received, most paintings are completed within 2–4 weeks, depending on size and my current commission schedule.
How much is the deposit?
A 50% deposit is required to reserve your place on my commission calendar. The remaining balance is due before delivery or shipping.
Can you combine
multiple photos into one painting?
Yes! Because every painting is hand-painted, I can combine elements from several photos to create the perfect composition. Pricing includes one vehicle. Paintings featuring two vehicles are typically priced at approximately double the cost due to the additional time and detail involved.
Can you remove people
or change the background?
Absolutely. I can remove people, simplify backgrounds, or combine different reference photos to create a painting that best tells your story.
Do you paint modern cars or only classic cars?
Both! Whether it's your first car, your dream car, a family heirloom, or the classic you've spent years restoring, I'd be honored to preserve it in paint.
Do you ship?
Yes. I ship finished paintings throughout the United States. Free local delivery is available within Orange County, California. Shipping and handling charges apply to orders outside Orange County.
What if I don't have the perfect photo?
Don't worry! I can often combine multiple photos, adjust lighting, remove distractions, and improve the composition. If you're unsure, simply send me what you have, and I'll let you know what's possible.
Why You'll Love
Your Custom
Car Commission
Your car is more than metal and chrome—it's a story. It reminds you of road trips, first dates, weekends in the garage, family adventures, or years spent bringing a dream to life.
A custom painting preserves those memories in a way that a photograph simply can't.
Every commission is:
🎨 Hand-painted in acrylic—never AI-generated or digitally printed.
❤️ Created from your favorite photos to capture the details that matter most.
🖼️ Designed to become a lasting heirloom you can proudly display in your home, office, or garage.
🎁 A meaningful gift for birthdays, anniversaries, retirements, Father's Day, or any special occasion.
✨ One of a kind. No two paintings are ever the same because every story is unique.
Commission Terms
Original Artwork
Every commission is an original, hand-painted acrylic painting created by Janina Galicinao. The purchase includes ownership of the original painting. The artist retains all copyrights and reproduction rights to the artwork.
Cancellations
If a commission is canceled before painting begins, your deposit will be refunded in full. Once work has started, the deposit becomes non-refundable to cover time already invested. If I ever need to cancel a commission, all payments will be refunded in full.
Delivery
When your painting is complete, I'll contact you to arrange local delivery or shipping. Paintings are carefully packaged to ensure they arrive safely. Shipping costs (typically around $100) are quoted before shipment.
Payment
A 50% deposit reserves your commission. The remaining balance is due before delivery or shipping.
“I had to make a custom request, my newest addition, a Jeep Wrangler that meant freedom, fun, and adventure at the same time. The result was simply astonishing. I shared a reference photo, and Janina captured the full picture. The vibe and the kind of adventures I love without even telling her.

What People Are Saying
Tata Mauru and my grandfather spent long days working side by side in the sugar cane fields of Kauai. Years later, I had the incredible honor of painting Tata’s beloved vintage truck for my cousin, Del. What started as an old photograph became so much more—a way to preserve a piece of our family’s history.
“I was shocked to see Janina had painted my dad’s truck. What great memories and so meaningful. It’s amazing how one little hunk of metal can mean so much… and now I have the whole thing captured forever!”
— Delia I, Lihue, Hawaii
