Family Keepsakesby Mary Hoak (Sunriver, OR, US)

I bought 1 for my second grandson's, baptism . Mom and Dad loved it so much that we had one done of our first grandson from his birth picture. They then had twins , they requested these as gifts again at their baptism. Again they were hits. A great company to deal with and the service is great. More grand babies to come. Thanks again. Mary

amazing giftby Kenton (Illinois)

For less than a nice meal out, I got her this beautiful watercolor of our home that she shows to everyone who comes over. Worth every penny and more.

Beautiful!!by Elizabeth Nations (Hurley, NM, US)

I bought this for my husband for our anniversary and he loved it!! The artwork is amazing and extremely accurate. It captured everything that I wanted and, I think it came out wonderfully. The interaction with the company was all very pleasant as well. I will definitely do business with this company again in the future.

Cat Cherub Paintingby Adam Spence (San Antonio, TX, US)

Exactly what I wanted, awesome! Would highly recommend!

Cousins Digging by Shirley Johnson (Santa Rosa Beach, FL, US)

Lovely, just what we wanted. The preview was perfect, the painting arrived as promised protected well in a cardboard tube. It is getting framed now. Family likes it so much, we’ll be ordering copies, smaller versions of ours, for them. Sharing the beautiful work.

Incredible work, I've never looked so good.by Russell Friedlander (Sylmar, CA, US)

At first I was apprehensive, I thought it was going to look obviously artificial, but that's actually what I look like, great job to the graphic designers over there at MyDavinci. And a special shout out to the shipping department, that package could've withstood a 10' drop without a scratch. My only criticism is there aren't enough portrait options for couples. Please provide more scenes, from more eras, and you will have a customer for life. I intend to buy each one of my friends and family members a portrait of us.

My First Drawingby gladys miles (virginia beach, VA, US)

I wanted to try a drawing rendition of a favorite photo and must say, the end result was quite impressive. One gets a chance to ask for modifications if required which I did and as stated am happy with the end result. The service was good and I received my drawing in a cardboard tube. The timing was very good too.

Lauren and Rick's wedding photoby patricia salvatore (NEWTOWN, PA, US)

I can't say enough about both the quality of the product and the stellar customer service experience. From the moment I placed the order, any questions were immediately addressed and every effort was made to insure a positive interaction. I would not hesitate to order from myDaVinci in the future!

Professional perfection by Matthew Lawrence (Portland, OR, US)

I gave the artist a challenging assignment - a photo of our cabin at night, with lights pouring out of large windows. Their standard approach seems to be to portray a house in daylight so they were initially unsure what the true colors should be. They asked for additional pictures to indicate that, and quickly produced a beautifully rendered watercolor of the cabin as it would appear in daytime - with a time lapse video showing the picture being painted! They sent a picture of the first image for my review. I was impressed by the quality but had been hoping for the more dramatic night time scene. They adjusted the tones and colors (not easy with watercolor, I’m sure) and I’m very pleased with the final result. The painting is impeccably rendered and I’m quite pleased by the result. I highly recommend this service and give high marks for the customer service and quality control.

Outstanding!by Marjorie Hatton (Boynton Bch, FL, US)

I was so pleased with this sketch of Ellie, it captured her personality perfectly! I haven’t given it to my son yet but I know he will treasure it. Thank you for the quick delivery of the proof and I will be back for future projects.

So Beautiful!by Candace Serviss (Loda, IL, US)

I had this done for my husband's birthday..the folks could not have been nicer and everyone who sees it thinks it is amazing and the birthday boy loved it!

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!

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.

Excellent artby Colleen Hughes (Bloomington, IN, US)

The artist did an excellent job of rendering this image of my home. Also, they accommodated a request to add hot pink flowers to some of the bushes even though the original image did not show them.

Perfect Gift! by Shelly Walden (Dunkirk, MD, US)

Wonderful artwork! I love this one of my son and his girlfriend. I ordered two recently. The other was for an office of 29 people, we had a few adjustments before getting the final but myDaVinci was very easy to work with and patiently made adjustments and sent back until it was perfect.

So excited! by Debra McKellar (Keller, TX, US)

I am thrilled to have found DaVinci! I am eagerly awaiting proofs for my second sketch... the first one of my daughter turned out wonderful....they worked with me and redid a couple of places until I was completely happy with the outcome... all at no extra charge.. I would recommend this for any sketch or painting of that special person!

Hand drawn pet photoby Kristine Brass (Pennington, NJ, US)

This is my second purchase from myDavinci. Both experiences were great. The ordering process is simple, myDavinci is responsive, they provide a preview of the work before it is finalized so you can request edits. Both of the items I purchased were gifts and the recipients love them.

Perfect Giftby Frank Nocera (Clearwater , FL, US)

My ex-wife moved into a ca1930 lakeside cottage this past summer and I was looking for a unique gift. I happened upon mydavinci, sent them a photo, and they nailed it. Beautifully painted original water color at a great price. Needless to say, she loved it. I really liked the way they allowed me to make minor changes before the final design. These guys are great. If you are hesitant to buy, don’t be. I highly recommend mydavinci.

I love this so much, this is my 2nd purchase!by Shannon OConnor (Tempe, AZ, US)

A few years ago I ordered a custom Victorian portrait of my, my fiancé, and our late dog. My fiancé loved this gift so much and all of our guests comment on how cool and unique this artwork is in our home. We have a new puppy now so I needed an updated portrait of our little family. I am thrilled to be a returning customer to MyDavinci, and was pleased to find out we could add our dog into this portrait, although the original did not have a dog in the picture. It was an extra $10 which I happily paid. I imagine this is not the last time I will be ordering a portrait from those at MyDavinci!

Lovelyby BettyJo Bast (Grand Rapids, MI, US)

So pleased with this watercolor of our home. The team at mydavinci also responded to my modification requests. Finished product is perfect. Thanks!

Loved it!by Krystal Petty (Lancaster, CA, US)

My siblings and I bought this print as a Christmas gift for our parents, who love going to wine country for the weekend. We had it personalized with their names and anniversary date (also upcoming at the time). They LOVED it! It looks exactly as the preview showed and arrived right on time! I would defn do business again!

Very Happyby Carol Cushing (Brooklyn , NY, US)

I was extremely pleased with the art work I ordered. I will use you again in the future . I will recommend you to my family and friends.

Treasured Keepsakeby Blair (Olathe, KS, US)

I purchased this piece for my mother for Christmas. She and my Dad treasure the house they built together, and this was the perfect way to honor it. The ordering process was easy, and I was allowed to provide ample feedback and edits at 2 stages of the process to make sure we got exactly what we wanted. My mother appreciated the little details - from the flag, to the garden bench. Would completely order again.

Lynda’s houseby Jan (Buchanan, MI, US)

I am beyond pleased with my piece of art, a housewarming gift for my best friend. The myDaVinci artists perfectly captured the character, charm and spirit of the home, and did a phenomenal job of adding in a few touches I requested. I am over the moon happy with the outcome of this piece and 110% satisfied with the quality of it as a heirloom for years to come.

Love 💕 by Jen Nicholls (Ballarat East, VIC, AU)

Great communication, requested color change and this one done quickly, couldn’t be happier with service and result Tsnk you!

Incredible Hand Painted Ink Renderingby Amber Rabon-Luna (San Diego, CA, US)

My husband and I were just blown away by this ink rendering. It was absolute perfection and is a treasured addition to his recording studio. I could not be happier with my experience with myDaVinci and can say with absolutely certainty that this website will be my first stop the next time I have a special gift in mind for someone. I just wish there was a way to personally thank the artist! We are thrilled with the piece and the overall experience. Incredible.

Masterful Artistry by Kristy Prentice (Akron, OH, US)

I could not be more pleased! This is more beautiful than I could have imagined. Highly recommend!!

Our Dog Pepperby Regina Cloutier (Naples, FL, US)

I was a bit reluctant to order this pencil sketch online because I didn't think the detail would be clear, and it would look more like a "print" than a sketch. I wanted a unique and meaningful gift for my husband, this past Christmas, so I decided to give him a sketch of our dog, Pepper, an all-black German Shepherd. When my husband opened the gift, I almost cried!! The detail of the sketch was absolutely amazing! The artist captured the details of Pepper's eyes, fur, tail, and even the way she was laying on her paw, just beautifully!! We hung our sketch in the Dining Room, where everyone can see and admire this beautiful sketch!

Juliet @ Fourteen and a half yearsby Myra Riollano (Bronx, NY, US)

I couldn't believe my eyes when I first saw the sample. It is truly beautiful, just like my Juliet. I will treasure this forever. I was always hesitant to place my order and I am so happy that I did. I thought having a pencil sketch would be best since she is silver. Every one that sees it can't believe how it is exactly as my picture. Thank you so much for capturing my Juliet's beauty.
