Friendsby Bobby Ruth Cardenas (Lubbock, TX, US)

I emailed a photo of friends to have a pencil drawing done. The artist was ever so good at capturing my friends great smile in the photo. Great work as always. This is the fourth portrait mydavinci has made for me. GREAT WORK!

A unique gift and wonderful groupby Jennifer Punt (Haverford, PA, US)

A unique gift and gesture for someone who doesn't need or want more material things. The team that worked on this lovely artwork were remarkably responsive and responsible. The artwork is lovely and I look forward to gifting it soon. I couldn't be more pleased by the quality as well as the process.

Beautiful workby Greg Hawes (Houston, TX, US)

We are repeat buyers and always happy with the service and artwork. Response time is fast, and we are given multiple opportunities to review before the final piece is shipped.

This brought tears to our eyes, so thankful for this wonderful memory of our sweet Athena

Dad & me - 1956by Rebecca Miles (CHICAGO, IL, US)

I absolutely love your products and especially this pencil sketch. I made special requests because this is the only picture I have of my dad and me as a baby. I felt that My Da Vinci took special care to make sure this sketch was perfect. This is something that I will be able to hand down to my children someday.

Our Pennyby Sharon Stern (Cincinnati, OH, US)

I am very please with the finished art work of the photo I had submitted. This is going to be a birthday present for my husband, after all this is his little buddy. The artist truly caught the expression of her eyes when she looks at him. Thank you again, this will be one of his best gifts ever!

Novaby Steve Riggs (West Warwick, RI, US)

I am so happy with the oil painting of Nova, my girlfriend's dog who passed away a few years ago. She absolutely loved the portrait with tears in her eyes after she saw it. She said it looks just like him. The said it was the best Xmas gift she's ever received. Thank you MyDivinci for the wonderful work of art.

Fantastic job!by Steve Hinkle (NJ, US)

The fact that My DaVinci artists trained for years definitely shows in this sketch. It is very close to the picture I sent in and I am amazed at how closely the details were followed. I would definitely recommend this service to anyone who wants high-quality art to adorn their walls or desk space. Great job!

Ajaxi, our dogby LeeAnn Wralstad (Virginia Bch, VA, US)

We were very happy with our sketch of my son’s dog Ajax. The sketch looked just like our grand dog and we were very happy with how quick the turn around was, since this was a Christmas present. I was very happy that we were given a chance to see the sketch to make sure we were happy with it and if we wanted any changes to the sketch , before they sent it to us. A very happy customer and would definitely recommend this site. We will most likely use them again for another sketch! LeeAnn

Outstanding!by Carmen Ramirez (Boerne, TX, US)

I sent four different photos to mydaVinci to put them all together for my final product, which is absolutely gorgeous. They understood everything I needed and wanted this watercolor to show and preserve our childhood memories.

A man and his dogby Tom Pullam (Maumelle, AR, US)

Duke recently died at the age of 13, a Christmas gift of years past. I wanted something special for my son-in-law, and I think this accomplished the task. I was impressed with their artwork and especially their customer service when asked if the artist could make certain adjustments; and with their quick responses, along with reviews of their work, before asking me for final approval. They did exactly what I requested and at a very reasonable price! I am totally satisfied!

Hands of motherly love by Paula Shaker (Naples, FL, US)

After the passing of my daughter-in-law’s mother, I wanted to give a meaningful remembrance of their love and bond. On her final night, here on earth, the holding of hands and the sharing of memories were symbolic of a lifetime of love and caring. My daughter-in-law sent me a photo of she and her mother holding hands the night before her mother passed away. . The gesture spoke volumes to me so I wanted to preserve it in a very special way. My DaVinci was able to accomplish just that. The framed pencil sketch will be a treasured piece in my daughter-in-law’s home forever. Thank you for providing that. The quality and professionalism that you have shown is excellent; I will definitely use you again and will recommend your service to all of my friends!

Extremely pleasefby Nathan Ojala (Kirkland, WA, US)

The main thing for me was the artist caught the essence of the photo I sent in. Shading was incredible. I would use them again in a heartbeat and plan to tell my friends and family.

The Golferby Virginia Bowman (Davidson, NC, US)

Fabulous job! Looks just like him and love the fact they could custom paint the golf setting. Very fast service. I was a little nervous when I didn't select to preview but it really wasn't necessary. I submitted two photos and a good explanation and it was perfect. Will definitely use again.

Memory of my grand fur babies. by Debbie Tunney (Belle Vernon, PA, US)

This is my second order to My Davinci. The first was my son’s dog. It was absolutely beautiful so that’s why I decided to get my daughter one when her two dogs passed away ten days of each other. Again I was so happy with this one. It showed their character. It is amazing how they captured this. Thank you so much for two beautiful drawings. I will be using them again.

WESTHAM “GOAT” Carlo Muccigaby Sheila Mucciga (Fort Myers, FL, US)

I was thrilled with my purchase and I cannot wait to give this canvas print to my son! The likeness your artist captured from the photo I provided was absolutely perfect 👌🏻 I was truly impressed with the soccer team WESTHAM uniform also added as I requested! Everything from the start of ordering to the speed and efficiency in completing the artwork was just great!! I will absolutely order again and highly recommend mydavinci!

Dads placeby Kevin C (Bellmore, NY, US)

I purchased this drawing as a gift for a friend who had recently lost her father.The entire process of losing him and selling the family home had been incredibly emotional for her. When I presented her with the drawing she was overwelmed with emotion, it truly captured the essence of her father in such a beautiful way. The detail and craftsmanship are extraordinary. Thank you for creating such a meaningful and lasting gift.

Exactly Like the photo by Laurel York (Asheville, NC, US)

This is a beautiful pencil sketch that is exactly like the photograph. Arrived intact and ready for gifting. Was a very well received Christmas present! Would highly recommend Mydavinci to memorialize your special photograph! This is our third order with them and we have been very pleased with all of the artwork

A New Masterpieceby P Cally (Massachusetts, US)

Really excellent work! I sent a couple of photos. The artist was able to get the face angle very close to the original art, which was my desire. Totally love how well it turned out. You get to review the image before it is made and billed. In my case I couldn't see anything to request they change. The frame came with hanging wire and hanging hardware assembled and ready to hang. Very happy customer.

Picture of houseby Katheen Long (Lake Zurich, IL, US)

My neighbors are moving and we got this for them as a going away present. It was perfect, they said it was the best gift they ever received. DaVinci was fast and it looks so cool as a pencil drawing. They even removed the for sale sign for me.

Amazingby Troy Purvis (Madison, IN, US)

It was beautiful. I will definitely be using you again. I was so impressed. Guarantee if you use these people you’ll be completely satisfied. I’ve had three sketches done by three different artist, and this one was the best by far. Thank you so much and merry Christmas.

Great Picture Of Our Nephews First House by David Acaster (Lancaster, PA, US)

Did a great job at replicating the picture and making it look exactly like the one sent them. Loved the attention to detail in the artwork. The artist had some questions and suggestions about making the artwork look the way we wanted it to look. They were very easy to communicate with and responded quickly. Will be placing a few more orders to do drawings of our doggies that have passed away.

Perfect!by Karen Lynn Pfrimmer (Parksville, BC, CA)

This was so well done, and it was exactly what I wanted. The process was terrific. I was sent the sketch to review, just as they promised, and was able to request a few very small changes, which they did, and then sent back for another review. They were very accommodating, and they had to combine a number of pictures together to get exactly what I was wanting. It was perfect! and Grandma was very happy!

Exceeded expectations!by Monica Willkomm (Nokomis, FL, US)

I’m so pleased with how my print turned out. I forwarded pictures found on Facebook for my colleague’s print and they were able to use them and create such a cool and seamless picture. Would definitely recommend this company and order from here again. Furthermore, they were so quick to send me the picture for approval and shipping was just as fast. Thank you!

Great attention to adjustmentsby Barbara McWee (Oakland, MI, US)

Because our grandchild's face was scrunched up as the butterfly landed on her nose and was quite obscured by a shade in the original photograph, it was difficult to make her face look just like her. DaVinci reworked the drawing with the assistance of additional photos we provided and the end result was a treasure.

Very Pleased!by Brian Denney (Eubank, KY, US)

I'm so happy with this piece of art. This was a special gift for my wife for Christmas but I was so excited about it that I had to let her have the gift before Christmas. The sketch is a sketch of my wife and her parents. Her mother died last year and her father passed away this year. My wife really loves this sketch.

Christmas Surpriseby Frances Conrad (Pequannock, NJ, US)

The family loved the Adam & Eve picture that I had made using my parents wedding photo. It was a surprise "bonus" Xmas gift. It looked great. This was ordered within 2 weeks of Christmas & they were extremely fast in getting the preview ready & we received it a few days after approval. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a fun & personal gift.

Gracieby Tammy Morris (Oxford, AL, US)

It looks just like my baby, it is so beautiful.

Beach chair pic/purchased for my Brother/Sister-in-law's 40th Anniversary.by Linda (Falmouth, MI, US)

The pic was simple but said "volumes"... The heart in the sand with their names and Anniversary date on it gave it that personal touch and made it so meaningful. Everybody loved it, especially the couple it was purchased for. Glad I found you on the internet. Received it in plenty of time for our event. Thanks again, probably will be checking out your web site again in the future.

Mom's Birthday Presentby Ivy Kingsland (Phoenix, AZ, US)

I ordered this picture...I thought it would make a Great Birthday Present for my Mother. It was a lot of Fun having her face put into a Piece of Historical Artwork. I ordered it framed...it came completely finnished...all that I had to do was give it to her. They did such a Great Job...you cannot even tell that her face was just added to a copy of the original portrait...it was truly a unique and special gift...the kind that you cannot just find anywhere. They did such a Fabulous job...I will order from them again. I Highly Recommend this site to anyone wanting to give a one of a kind special gift. Thank you myDaVinci!!!
