Custom Oil Portraits for Celebrities: A New Standard of Luxury
In a world where so much is digital and fleeting, more and more public figures are turning to something far more enduring: custom oil portraits.
At Diversity+, we create luxury portrait commissions for cultural icons, musicians, actors, and visionaries who want more than a likeness. They want presence. They want legacy. They want art that holds who they are in a way no photograph ever could.
A Return to Meaning
For celebrities who already invest in fashion, design, and jewellry, bespoke oil paintings offer something deeper—a way to be seen with intention. These works are made slowly, by hand, using archival oil paint, earthy tones, and expressive brushwork. The result is a portrait that doesn’t just depict—it remembers.
Each piece is commissioned by invitation, created in collaboration with the client, and designed to be passed down. Whether installed in a private home, studio, or personal archive, these are not trend pieces—they are part of a legacy.
Created for Icons, Not Just Images
Hazel’s work has been commissioned by and of cultural figures including Michael B. Jordan, Tobe Nwigwe, Jessie Reyez, and others who value portraiture as a way to mark success, preserve identity, and make history visible.
These aren’t decorative paintings. They are fine art portraits for public figures who want to be documented with care and craft—who understand that luxury isn’t loud, it’s lasting.
The Process
Each portrait begins with a private consultation. Hazel works closely with clients to understand not just what they want to be seen, but how they want to be remembered. From there, the work unfolds slowly—layer by layer, in oil. This is custom artwork for celebrities who value personal storytelling, cultural depth, and museum-quality execution.
In the age of visibility, being seen isn’t rare—but being seen well is. These portraits are for those who want to mark a moment, a life, a legacy—with clarity and beauty.
