Beautiful home portraitby patti gosman (northport, NY, US)

This was a gift for a seller who had been in the home for 50 years. It came out beautiful, and the photo I sent was taken in January so my davinci obliged me by adding leaves to the tree in the backround. I was very happy with the watercolor as was my recipient. My only complaint was in shipping. The package was basically destroyed by the time it reached me, and it did take awhile. Longer that anticipated.

Amazing!!!by Colleen Vaccaro (North Wales, PA, US)

The artist did a perfect job and the end result was spectacular. On top of that, the whole project was a quick turnaround.

PORTRAIT OF SILASby ANDREA SLOBODOW NAGROTSKY ()

The portrait of our grandson is simply beautiful. Your artist captured him perfectly. Thank you!

Amazing by Dolores Silva (Benicia, CA, US)

I received my portrait order on December 24th. It was a gift for my son. Although the proofs are very nice, when I opened the box that contained my order, I almost fell over at how nice this hand sketch drawing is. Pictures don’t do it justice. It’s GORGEOUS!!!! My son was amazed when he unwrapped his gift. He immediately said “this is hanging in my living room.” Lol! Thank you for offering such amazing sketches to us I am very happy with ny purchase.

Another great job!by Margaret Weber (Hauppauge, NY, US)

This is the fifth hand drawn color pencil I ordered. Each one is perfect and looks exactly like the photo that was sent to DaVinvi to create the drawing. This drawing was particularly difficult because the baby had a frown in all her Baptism pictures. We asked DaVinci to use a photo of the baby smiling from a different photo and superimpose it onto the Baptism photo. No one could tell that the drawing was actually from two different photographs! FYI - make sure you check if you are ordering the layout in landscape or portrait. Not realizing the drawing's layout was landscape, I approved it. When the drawing arrived, I discovered the error. DaVinici was very accommodating and told me to return the drawing and they corrected the layout. I highly recommend DaVinci because of their talented artists and great customer service.

True loveby Lynette Ollio (Renfrew, PA, US)

This was my favorite gift! The workmanship is terrific with amazing details and exact appearances on the sketching! The timing was not long either. Thank you!

Edby Carol Lonergan (Cicero, NY, US)

Thank you so much for all the time you spent with me getting Ed's portrait just right. You even added a ball in his photo! That is what Ed loves to do, play catch. The portrait looks wonderful!

Great service!by Jason Gold (Garden City, ID, US)

I Ordered a hand-drawn sketch as a christmas gift. After sending in the photo, an associate from mydavinci.com emailed me within a day, verifing what I wanted done. About a week later, they emailed me again with what they had done. I had to approve the product before they would actually send it to me. The sketch was awesome. After my approval, the sketch arrived in the mail within a week. The sketch was even better in person. It was top quality.

Unbelievableby Autumn Sullivan (Glen Allen, VA, US)

I was floored by the authenticity of the portrait done. The picture is two of our loved ones that passed last year. They were able to merge two different pictures to create the finished product. This is not the first time I've ordered from MyDavinci & certainly will not be the last!

"Abby Dog"by Lois Hilgendorf (Tomahawk, WI, US)

This was a Christmas gift for my daughter. She just loved it! Thank you for taking time to get the color and shading just right, it really helped illustrate the personality of her dog, Abby. Even though I didn't give you much time to get it done, your persistence was much appreciated. It arrived Christmas Eve Day! Everyone I worked with at your facilty was awesome and very willing to make it exactly what I wanted. Thanks Again

Spot On!by Calvin Ekern (Altoona, WI, US)

This was my second order from the company. The quality of the photos is so well done, both are gifts and I'm sure they are going to love them as much as I did! The team does a great job of sending proofs to approve and make any changes necessary. Can't wait to give these as gifts!!!

Amazing!!!by Julie Norstedt (New Prague, MN, US)

I had a pencil drawing done for my daughter for Christmas, by far her favorite gift. To be able to capture her and her cat with both images so spot on exceeded my expectations!! I loved that I could make adjustments once it was complete, it didn’t need much but the few things they changed made all the difference. You won’t be disappointed with this product! Thank you so much for making my daughter ( and myself) so happy!!!

Wonderful !by Malcolm Windsor (Olathe, KS, US)

We are so pleased with the painting. Looking at it brings back great memories. The artist took great care and captured the scene very well.

Excellent serviceby Elizabeth Gallagher (Brooklyn , NY, US)

I can’t say enough about my experience with mydavinci... I wanted to have a painting done of my parents' old summer bungalow which has since been knocked down. I found 2 old photos which they were able to successfully merge into one. They gave me 2 or 3 opportunities to modify what they had completed. The photos were only of the front door with their dog sitting in front so I was a little concerned about how good it would come out. Wondered if it was enough to make a successful painting. Well, they did an amazing job!! The details they were able to include from old fuzzy pictures is astounding! My moms' eyes welled up with tears when she saw it! We can’t stop looking at it! I highly recommend!!!

The Bethpage Homeby KATHERINE Ciavarella (Massapequa Park, NY, US)

I am so excited to give this as a gift to my clients when they close on their home. My client grew up in this home and I know it will be something to treasure as they move to the next chapter in life. I sent a photo and in no time at all I received a preview of this beautiful replica. As soon as I approved it, it was sent to me. The packaging used kept the artwork and frame from being damaged. I will continue to use myDaVinci.com for gifts to my real estate clients. Kathy Ciavarella

watercolor artby Robert Damico (STAFFORD, VA, US)

I sent a picture for DaVinci to create a watercolor print for me. It came out great. They asked for my approval before sending to me and even made a few adjustments based on my comments. I'm getting ready to order another watercolor from them. Recommend them strongly for anyone seeking an unusual gift.

father & son hockey buddiesby Suzanne Levesque (Campbellton, NB, CA)

wish i had a more detailed picture of my nephew and his dad but the sketch turned out very nice... my nephew loved it and it is displayed in the living room. i probably will be buying more artwork in the future.

‘My Dad’by Diane Stierle (Milford, PA, US)

This perfect portrait captured the ‘my dad’ everlasting smile for my daughter’s 40th birthday gift; thank you ‘myDaVinci’ and your gifted artists for art work from the heart.

Amazing Job! by Bryan Tonti (DALLAS, TX, US)

My sister loved your colored pencil sketch / drawing master piece of their new home! I will definitely use y’all again for future gifts to family and friends :)

WONDERFUL GIFTby Shawn Moore (Lewisville, TX, US)

My husband purchased this gift for me for Christmas. I was so thrilled as my Doggie Teddie is my baby and I love him dearly. Great Job, Wonderful gift to cherish forever! Thank you

Best Boss Gift!by Gina S. (Woodside, NY, US)

I had an idea for a gift and when I googled, I found this site. My boss is in real estate but loves to tell jokes. He is known for it in the office and at his local civic organizations. I found the Comedian artwork and put his face on it. My boss loves it. Has it hanging on his wall in his office! You did a great job!! Thank you. I have referred you to a few people already.

Fabulous workby Scott Witham (Chehalis, WA, US)

My wife’s cat passed and it’s the last real thing that belonged to her late husband. This art will keep not only Oscar the cat alive but a constant reminder of her late husband Darren.

First Home by Joyce (Novi, MI, US)

My daughter recently purchased her first home. The house is absolutely adorable and she and my granddaughter are extremely happy with it. While thinking of something special to get her for Christmas I came across the myDaVinci site through the New York Times gift recommendations. It looked appealing so I decided to send in a picture of my daughter's home and the result was fantastic. The artist did a wonderful job capturing the essence of the home and followed my instructions to leave off certain non-essential parts of the picture that I sent it. I highly recommend this photo to art site, especially if you are looking for a unique gift for someone special.

Always the perfect gift....by Gayle Miller (Hopewell, NJ, US)

What to give when you have run out of ideas? Turn to myDaVinci! The gifts are unique, memorable and timeless. Forget that bottle of perfume/cologne, forget the theater tickets (good for one nite of fun), forget it all. A gift from DaVinci.com will make someone happy forever ;o) They are reliable, timely, helpful, professional, creative and fun. This is my 2nd order. Will be back!

Aerial Combatby Rusty Poulin (Macon, GA, US)

The artwork completed by my DaVinci exceeded my expectations. They were great to work with. I am very pleased with the final product and would certainly use them again.

Love it!by Richard Bruess (Boulder, CO, US)

We love this drawing. It turned out beautifully. The people at myDaVinci were very helpful, suggesting improvements to the final picture.

PERFECTby Marjie (Edison, NJ, US)

I purchased two of these, one for me and one for my son and fiancee. I couldn't be happier - in fact, I can't stop looking at it. It looks just like an oil painting and printed on excellent quality paper stock. This is my fourth purchase from myDaVinci (the first was about 15 years ago), and I've never been disappointed. They are definitely my "go to" for extra special gifts.

Beginningby Judy Janovyak (Lockport, IL, US)

I needed this print for my daughter's baby shower and gave little notice. Unfortunately, though the print was completed, it didn't arrive in time to be at the shower. However, it was completed and shipped very quickly and is absolutely perfect! My daughter and son-in-law love it and it will be a keepsake for them to display this beautiful moment in their life for years to come. It turned out exactly as I had wanted and was delivered not only quickly, but safely so that the print was in perfect condition for framing. I highly recommend My DaVinci!

Father and Sonby Jill Kingslien (La Vernia, TX, US)

I got the first piece when my son was almost 1 for my husband's first Father's Day. I have gotten a father/son picture done about every 3 years. Our son is 15 now and this is the 5th one. It is a wonderful chronical of their relationship as he has grown up. Beautiful work as always. Excellent communication, rapid response and item well packaged and sent promptly.

Love It...Love It.....Love It !!!!by Kara Saunders (Reedsport, OR, US)

Thank you so much......it is fabulous!!!
