Beautiful productby Ellen Teeman (KATONAH, NY, US)

I am very pleased with the way the water color turned out. The process was easy and whenever I had a question I heard back quickly. It would be helpful if they had a phone number to call instead of emails. Also I suggest the if you need to have the product by a certain date you start the process early since it takes a while especially if you need changes. Also it was very well wrapped for shipping.

Violet Bank Museum Watercolorby Pamela Wallace (Colonial Heights, VA, US)

Words cannot express how pleased I was with this piece. This was a gift for a parting council member and was presented to him last evening. Our Mayor and the entire City Council was exceptionally pleased with the quality of the piece. I will be using myDaVinci again for my personal items and most likely again, as well, for gifts such as this.

Show Stopper!by Ann Marie Smith (Oakdale, PA, US)

What a brilliant product. When a visitor walks past it, they literally STOP to admire it. The questions are always the same-where did you get it, how did you think of it, how much was it, is it hard to place an order...Who knew I had so many fans-thanks to myDaVinci!

Fabulous Pencil Art Drawingby Lodina Lepard (Feeding Hills, MA, US)

I was thrilled to see the beautiful finished pencil art drawn by Candy. She did a phenomenal job of depicting Hazel, which looks just like the beautiful dog she is!!! My son and his wife were so excited when they opened the present and immediately displayed it in their home! I would highly recommend mydavinci.com to anyone wanting a treasured gift!

Twotooby Barb Little (Champaign, IL, US)

Very impressed with the finished product, how user friendly the process was and how fast it was completed. It was a present and she loved it

Superb artwork and service. by Irving Apar (Floral Park, NY, US)

When we heard Oprah’s strong endorsement, we suspected we would get a good product. Well we were right. The artwork based on our niece and nephew’s new home was incredible. It captured a precious family moment and the whole family loves it. We were very fussy and asked for a few changes, which were done very well and without complaint. The service was as top notch as the product. We would do this again!

House watercolorby Carrie Rummans (River Forest, IL, US)

We ordered a watercolor of our family's home. The artist was very patient as we requested various tweaks and we were very happy with the final product.

Beautiful Memoriesby Elyse (Old Orchard Beach , ME, US)

My best friend lost her dog of 14 years, and this was the best gift she could have received to help her during this difficult time. The artistry is magnificent, and it really brings the picture to life. My friend will forever be brought back to a special time in her life with her best friend, whenever she looks at this drawing. Thank you SO much!!!

Christmas gift funby Susan Ludlam (San Diego, CA, US)

I was so impressed with the quality and speed in which I received this artwork, especially since I decided at the last minute to have it done. In my haste, I chose a photo taken by a phone and MyDaVinci was able to replicate the personality of my granddaughter, as well as clearing the busy-ness of the background. I highly recommend this company for this fun effect!

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.

Rave Amiby Nicole Anderson (Pittsburgh, PA, US)

It arrived in enough bubble wrap where I could make a dress out of it :) Very well packed for protection because you know how the delivery services love a Fragile sticker. Ken did another order of one of my friends and he is really awesome at detail and following instruction on what to change. I thank you for animating not only my friends and their music journeys and look forward in getting some more artwork in this style!

Amazingby Teresa Johnstonbaugh (Chandler, AZ, US)

This is a gift for a new homeowner. The recipient really appreciated it and thought it was wonderful. I loved it as well.

Christmas Hitby Michael C Burkhardt (Marlborough, CT, US)

The painting made my wife's Christmas. I don't know what better words I could write. It was easy. The product is phenomenal. You won't be sorry.

LOVE IT!by Michelle Brown (Norton, MA, US)

i bought this print as a one year anniversary gift for my new hubby, first year-Paper... anyway it got here so quickly i had it in time to give even though i waited until last minute to order it. The frame is beautiful, the print looks custom,very good quality. He loved it too, hung it right up in his office & people are already asking about it. i loved everything i saw online & will be ordering something for my teenage daughter soon.

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.

Granddaughter by Brenda Miller (Bethlehem , PA, US)

I wasn’t completely happy with the first draft but they made the adjustment I asked for and was completely satisfied with the final product. My granddaughter passed away in June and now we can preserve this special picture of her forever and always remember her every time we see it

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!

First tryby Joshua Hofstetter (Crownsville, MD, US)

To be honest I was very worried how this would turn out... I really didn't know to expect!!! Paid the money, e-mailed back a forth a time or 2, then BOOM package in the mail and I was very happy with the results!!!! My face (the mans face) could have been slightly better but honestly this is such a bit! Made for a really awesome gift to my High School teacher!!! Thank you myDaVinci!

Poppyby Dawn Eastes (Nolensville, TN, US)

I submitted a photograph of my best friend's little rescue dog. She lives on Vancouver Island, British Columbia in Canada. This will be her birthday present and she knows nothing about it. She is traveling here right now, even as I'm typing this, to visit with family members who live near me outside of Nashville. I'm thrilled with how the pencil sketch turned out and would recommend this artwork group to anyone. It was done to my specifications and was also received in plenty of time for her birthday in just a few days. Thank you very much. She is going to be so surprised. Well done!

Carbon copy of the photograph by Divya Bhat (VENICE, CA, US)

The artist did a fantastic job of capturing our beloved Molly who left our family at the age of 19. I had this made for my father who lost his greatest companion. This drawing brought him a tremendous amount of joy when he received it.

Looks great!!by Brice Dudman (Brier, WA, US)

This is the third drawing I've purchased and you really nailed it. That's Wilson, all right. I was very happy with the first one and loved this one. I gotta say my second one, a beautiful German Shepherd didn't do her justice. It was too light and a bit angular. My fault for approving it without voicing my concerns. I'd purchased it for a friend and saw it again recently for the first time in a while and was again disappointed. But this one couldn't have been better

AMAZINGby Vickie Vizina (Duson, LA, US)

Love, Love, Love our portrait. I purchased this portrait of our deceased German Shepherd for my son as a Christmas gift!!! It was absolutely beautiful, looks just like our beloved Chico and we will cherish it forever. I will definately be ordering from this company again, be it for a human or animal portrait.

Christmas Gift for my Husbandby Shannon Williams (Sanford, NC, US)

MyDavinci went beyond my expectations. The communication from this company is phenomenal! Through the entire process, they made sure that my drawing was exactly what I wanted by sending sketches and asking for approval on each one. The artwork arrived in a very timely manner. My husband loves his picture and stated how great of a job this company did. (He has an art and design degree) I highly recommend this company if you are looking for hand drawn artwork. I will definitely use them again!

loss family by Linda McCarthy (Lancaster, NY, US)

After a series of adjustments I thought the drawing was done very well and to the likeness of all the individuals in the portrait. The staff was very understanding with each adjustment presented to them and sent me a revision each time. Since three people from the picture have passed, this meant the world to me to see everyone together again. I would recommend this service to others who would like to preserve a precious memory.

An Adored Motherby Melanie Hardnett (Atlanta, GA, US)

I received a myDavinci hand drawn photo of my Grandmother and I in Nov 2020 from a dear friend. I adored it so much and how accurate it depicted the original photo. It warmed my heart as my Grandmother passed away at 94 years old in Sept 2020. As soon as I received my drawing I knew I'd have one made for my favorite aunt. Her birthday is coming up soon and this is her gift. I love it so much and know she will share the same sentiment. A keepsake she and I will have forever.

Love the workby Madhoolica Dear (Westmont, IL, US)

One can buy digital royal portraits from various sites these days but I have found myDavinci's portraits to be aesthetically, technically superior. They are done right. I have asked for edits and they listened. The final images, the paper they are produced are stunning. I have surprised my family and friends with their work. Thanks for brining joy and creating memories..myDavinci Team.

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!

Granddaughter in Gardenby Jaylene Jensen (Urbandale, IA, US)

This watercolor is so beautiful and done so well. The first one I received the haircoloring was a little blonde, I requested to redo it to look more auburn. It is perfect. I can't say enough good things about this website and it's artists. I have had four watercolors done and they're all so special.

Color Pencil Drawingby Gail Zopfi (Crystal , MN, US)

I was very pleased with the process and timing on my order. I approved the drawing, but as of now, I have not looked at the original drawing and it is packaged so nicely and it is a Christmas gift. I would order from this company again.

Work of Artby Tina LW (Philadelphia, PA, US)

I absolutely love my new artwork. The artist turned something that was supposed to be a joke into a masterpiece. Kudos to the artist and MyDaVinci for their excellent work and quick turnaround.
