Misleading Advertising I signed up to be an artist for Requiren and they lie about connecting artists and clients for free. They add a 20% to 30% upcharge to the actual commission cost and also take a 5% cut to all commission fees. They specifically told me the upcharge is payment for connecting artist and client, which they advertise the opposite of. Actual artist prices are misrepresented to the client, and clients using the site could contact the artist directly for a huge cost savings. It's extremely fishy and misleading for everybody.

A wonderful gift idea and worth the small wait time!! The process of selecting what type and size of painting I wanted along with what artist I wanted to replicate my picture was a very smooth process. I received updates when the artist approved my request and when the painting was done and sent my way as well! Unfortunately, some problem with FedEx happened with shipping issues but a simple email to Requiren and everything was back on track! It was a Christmas present to my boyfriend and it was absolutely beautiful and the artist absolutely nailed the features I asked him to enhance in the picture!! My boyfriend absolutely loves it and I do too!

I ordered a custom painting of my… I ordered a custom painting of my family of 4 and our artist did a great job!! You can tell he spent a lot of time on it because even the small details are perfect. I was worried the picture I provided was too small, but it worked out great. It was a very special gift so I'm happy the artist packaged it so safely. The UPS delivery driver also asked for my signature before they dropped off the painting package which I thought was very nice. Great experience, I recommend!

I've also checked out the process from the client's end (being able to put in their price point of what they want to pay, size, and subject matter, and finally being able to look through a selection of recommended artists to then choose who they'd like to commission). It's such a cool process and I love that I found Requiren to work for!

Great Portrait Website I am an artist and this is a great opportunity. It is easy to set up an account here. The commission is fair. So far I have a great experience working on this website.
