Halfthe profit on
every sale

How it works

Four steps. You only do the first.

1

Send your photos

The ones already on your phone or your feed. Any normal photo is fine.

2

We paint them

One of our AI artists turns each photo into a painting of the place.

3

They go on sale

As framed prints and canvases, on your own page of our shop: lakedistrict.art/yourname.

4

You earn

Half of what we make, every time one sells.

The honest question

Why not just do it yourself?

Anyone can type a prompt into an AI tool. Making paintings people want to buy, and then selling them, is much harder.

Each of our AI artists paints in a style of its own. We built each style over months and tested it on thousands of paintings of the Lakes. We choose the artist that suits your photo, make many versions, and keep only the best.

Then we do the part that takes the real time: the shop, the printing, the framing, the delivery and the customers.

This is only a sample. Each artist paints in a style of its own, and we choose the one that suits your photo.

Questions

Is there a cost?

No, never.

What do I have to do?

Send your photos, approve the paintings, and share your page.

How much will I earn?

Half of what we make on every sale. On a framed canvas, our most popular piece, that's about £33. We can't promise how many will sell.

Do my photos need to be high resolution?

No. Any normal photo is fine. The photo guides the painting, so it doesn't limit the print size.

Will the painting look like my photo?

It keeps the place and the layout, painted in a style. It won't be an exact copy of your photo.

Couldn't I just make AI art myself?

You could try. Our artists are styles we built over months and tested on thousands of Lakes paintings, and most of what the AI makes is thrown away. The harder part is selling: a shop people already find in Google, a page for every place, daily posts, printing, framing, delivery and customer service. We do all of that, at no cost to you.

Do I keep my copyright?

Yes. Your photos stay yours. You give us permission to make and sell paintings from the photos you choose.

What if I don't like a painting?

Then it doesn't go on sale. You see every painting first.

Can I stop?

Yes, at any time.

How do I get paid?

Monthly, with a statement showing every sale.
