London, England (PRWEB) November 11, 2007 -- Art Specialist (http://www.artspecialist.co.uk) a London based online art gallery today introduces an innovative new service. Customers' DNA samples are used to create a DNA fingerprint and the image is then used by their artists to create original and unique oil paintings in the customer's choice of colours. The service offers customers a contemporary personal DNA artwork that matches the decor.

As the fruit of the collaboration between scientific and artistic worlds, this approach uses the most advanced genetic techniques and inspired creativity to paint you the most personalized portrait you will ever find.

The process is simple and takes about eight weeks in total. After ordering a DNA sample kit is sent to the customer. The customer simply swabs their cheek using the sample kit provided and sends it to the lab. The lab produces the DNA fingerprint in a variety of different styles. The artist then uses the fingerprint image, instructions from the customer and their colour choices to create an oil painting. The customer then views the image and the artist makes any changes needed until the customer is happy and then paintings are framed if required and delivered. DNA samples are destroyed after use and no records kept, so customer's privacy is assured.

Services using genetic information have started to appear over the last few years, for information on ancestors or tests for typical diseases. Recently a few companies have started to offer prints on canvas of personalised DNA fingerprints, however the Art Specialist DNA Art gallery (http://www.artspecialist.co.uk/unique-dna-art-c-52.html) is one of the first art firms to use it in handpainted oil paintings. Tony Gosling the gallery owner said "DNA art is a really new and exciting form of contemporary art and we are getting a great response from the art world and art customers."
