Your photo, repainted by the cosmos.

Three ways to send a photo to space

Open Cosmic Canvas and pick a cosmic style. Nebula Watercolour dissolves your subject into blooming magenta and teal ink, flecked with stars. Starry Night repaints it in thick swirling post-impressionist strokes of night-blue and gold. Constellation Lines redraws it as a star map: fine glowing lines joining points of light on deep night sky.

Preview free, print gallery-grade

Review the cosmic treatment before choosing a finish. The preview screen shows your remaining daily allowance after email verification. We print the result you approve, removing its watermark without repainting it. Available sizes depend on the image quality. Finish as a poster from £19.99, a framed print, or a gallery-grade canvas.

Prefer ready-made astronomy art?

If you'd rather hang the real sky than your own photo, browse the astronomy prints catalogue: nebulae, galaxies, planets and eclipses, all made to order.

This page is the commercial end of Your own sky. If you want to know what each style does before you upload anything, turning a photo into a painting walks through the painterly ones and four photo styles compared puts them side by side.

Questions, answered

How do I turn my photo into cosmic art?
Choose nebula watercolour, swirling starry night or constellation lines on the Cosmic Canvas page. Verify your email, upload the photograph and review a watermarked result. If you order, that approved image is printed without the watermark on your chosen eligible format.
What cosmic styles can I choose?
Nebula Watercolour blooms your subject out of magenta, teal and violet ink with white star-flecks; Starry Night repaints it in thick post-impressionist swirls of night-blue and gold; Constellation Lines redraws it as a star map of fine glowing lines. Choose a treatment on the preview page, where your daily allowance is shown.
How much does it cost?
Email verification lets you create three successful previews each day for free. Prints start at £19.99 for an A4 poster, framed prints from £39.99 and canvas from £85.00, free UK delivery included in the price shown.
What photo works best?
A clear, sharply focused photo with a strong subject. We measure your image against each print size before you pay and block any that would print soft, so the finished art always looks right.
Can I get it on canvas?
Yes, choose canvas at checkout and we print the finished cosmic artwork on gallery-grade FSC-certified canvas. Framed prints in black or natural wood are also available.
