Hand Drawn Pencil Portraits from Photos | Pencil Portrait Drawing | Pencil Sketch ArtistsWife and her late fatherby Josh Gautreaux (Port allen, LA, US)

Artist matched the picture perfectly. Her father passed rather quickly from a short but intense battle with cancer. This picture shows how soft and lovable of a man he truly was with his daughters. Beautiful piece that we will treasure forever.

Hand Drawn Pencil Portraits from Photos | Pencil Portrait Drawing | Pencil Sketch ArtistsJust like the photoby Laurel York (Asheville, NC, US)

Really nice and I am pleased with the item. Gave as a present to our friend. From a photograph he took of his dog. I did ask for the artist to sign the work, which was not done, but accepted anyway so it’s ok. Would order from Davinci again.

Hand Drawn Colored Pencil Portraits from Photos | Colored Pencil Drawings from Photoswatercolor 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.

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

I couldn't be more pleased with my artwork. She is beautiful and looks exactly like the photo I sent. I was able to ask for updates and change things that did not look right to me, as the process went on. Great experience!

LeonardoNew addition to the family by Kim Voorhees (Piscataway, NJ, US)

We are having our 5th grandchild in the family. I wanted to do something different for his arrival and part of the baby shower gift. My artist did a great job following my lead. We love this and can’t wait for the family to see. Thank you again for first class art work and memories for that family.

I've had five sketches done and have loved them all. This one is our grandson in Scotland with his grandma for high school graduation. He absolutely loved it.

Hand Drawn Vintage Davinci Sketch from PhotosGreat Christmas Giftby Jason Huffman (Midlothian, VA, US)

I was looking for a great "Baby's First Christmas" gift for my wife, and I had used myDaVinci before for a house sketch. They exceeded expectations and even adjusted minute deatils such as freckles. This was a perfect capture of the moment my wife and son "met" for the first time. Thanks again.

Hand Drawn Colored Pencil Portraits from Photos | Colored Pencil Drawings from PhotosGorgeous Rendering!by Thomas Barrett (Chesilhurst, NJ, US)

The artist who drew the picture of my two little munckins did a beautiful job. The accuracy of expression, the feeling displayed, and the beauty of my dogs was presented as if each we're still with me and family. In short, it brought both my dogs back to life! I wholeheartedly recommend DaVinci's services to anyone wishing to recreate a loved one or memory in picture form. My purchase was worth so much more than money. It gave me back my precious little angels! Thank you DaVinci!

Hand Drawn Pencil Portraits from Photos | Pencil Portrait Drawing | Pencil Sketch ArtistsIncredibleby JAYNE DANN (Danville, IN, US)

I sent in several pictures and MyDaVinci chose what they thought would work best, and created my father holding his great granddaughter, who he never got to meet. It was presented at her 1st birthday. Everyone's reaction was of amazement, of the likeness of the two of them. Brought tears to my eyes. It is a beautiful piece and will be cherished for years to come!! Thank you so much. I definitely recommend your services and have already passed on your information. Thank you again!!

You guys are AWESOME. So glad I found you. I always struggle to come up with unique gift ideas and now I have a place to come! Your artist captured the baby perfectly.

Hand-Painted Watercolor Portraits from Photos | Custom Watercolor Painting from PhotoSaved Our Wedding Photos!!by Meghan (GA)

Unfortunately, the memory card with our wedding photos was lost before we ever received any pictures of us together. All that we had were a few iphone photos that a friend took. We were grateful for those, but the quality wasn’t good enough to print past a 4x6. Then I heard of myDaVinci...we sent in the best iphone picture we could find and the artist created the most beautiful portrait from our wedding. Now we have a large representation, and it’s one of the only ones from our wedding day. I’m so grateful for this company! The painting is so incredibly detailed, down to the exact lace detail of my dress. No one would ever know that it was painted off a small phone photo that was our last hope. We’ve already ordered others as gifts. You may think it’s a big investment, but the value is incredible. I am amazed at their work! Thank you!!

Hand-Painted Watercolor Portraits from Photos | Custom Watercolor Painting from PhotoFirst 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.

LeonardoEven Better Than The Preview!by Gary Solomonson (Minneapolis, MN, US)

The Leonardo's Pop painting we ordered for a wedding gift was even more beautiful when it arrived than when previewed in the online review!! It was a very beautiful piece of art. This is the second time we have used your services, and in both cases, we have been thrilled with the results! It's an amazing thing that you do, and we are very thankful that mydavinci exists. Thanks again for making it possible for us to give a truly unique and meaningful gift.

Hand Drawn Pencil Portraits from Photos | Pencil Portrait Drawing | Pencil Sketch ArtistsBaby and Mom portraitby Stacey Coyle (Leander, TX, US)

I had a drawing done of a picture my son took with his phone of his wife and new baby boy to gift him for his first Father’s Day. He took the pic on a flip phone so the quality was not great. The artwork was amazing I couldn’t have asked for a better result. It captures a moment in time that was a rare and beautiful picture
