Your pet,
in Marrakech.

Why Marrakech

Places with their own character.

Our real-place portraits draw on the light, architecture and history of Marrakech. Jemaa el-Fnaa really does look like that at dusk. The Majorelle blue really is that blue. Each of the 17 places sits on its true coordinates, and the compositions we paint from were written against reference photographs of it and corrected when the painting got the place wrong.

The city is the studio’s subject beyond pets, too. The Maâlem and Collage collections — 32 works across six Moroccan visual traditions and eight photomontages — are the adjoining rooms: the same places, painted without anybody’s animal in them.

How it is made

An image model, guided by your photograph and our compositions.

We say so plainly: the painting is AI-created. Your photograph supplies the animal; a composition we wrote for the place supplies the light, the hour and the brushwork; an image model paints the one around the other. It is not a hand-painted commission and we never describe it as one. The honest guide to how it works goes through what the model is told, what it cannot do, and what happens to your photograph — which is processed to create your preview and is not stored by Berbernest.

Because it is AI, you look first. Your first two watermarked previews need no card or account. If the likeness is wrong, describe the correction; corrections using the same photo and setting are free. Extra previews are available separately. Keep a portrait without the watermark for €15: a 1024 × 1536 pixel file for personal sharing, screens and small prints.

Prints

Made to order, and only when they can be made well.

Prints are temporarily unavailable. Prints open only when the artwork meets our 300 ppi standard. The digital portrait is available now. Physical sizes remain unavailable until suitable print masters are ready.

When available, physical prints are giclée on 200 gsm enhanced matte art paper, produced to order by our print partner at the facility nearest you and posted to you — nothing sits in a warehouse. Framed pieces use acrylic glazing rather than glass so they survive the post, and arrive ready to hang. A print is offered only when the artwork meets a 300 pixel-per-inch standard for that size; the checkout refuses one it cannot make properly. If a print arrives damaged or faulty, contact support with photographs and your order reference. We assess the issue with our print partner and explain the available replacement or refund remedy. Your mandatory rights remain unaffected. Contact us before returning anything. Sizes, frames and delivery.

What we refuse to do

The rules the site is built on.

• No invented reviews. Our demonstration portraits show what the studio can create. They are examples, not customer reviews.
• No stand-ins sold as your pet. Every example on this site is labelled as a demonstration until your own painting exists.
• Their face stays the subject. Royal portraits use capes and cushions in imagined interiors. Real-place portraits offer quieter styling, including the option to keep just your pet.
• Photo checks before generation. Checks can flag an unsuitable photograph before a preview is used. They cannot catch every issue; you judge the likeness before purchasing.
• No print that will not print well. See above.

Who

A studio, not a marketplace.

The people who write the compositions and test the places are the people who answer the support desk — a person replies, not a queue. Contact and publisher information belongs on the legal notice, with the terms, privacy and refund policies beside it.
