Best memory by lady gonzalez (Coram, NY, US)

I can't even described the feeling when my wife and I opened it up... tears came out of our eyes... so real and you can tell it was drawn with love and respect

Schnoodle Love IIby Mary Stepura (Cary, NC, US)

Same review as on the other picture I ordered. Have to add a mat to the outside of the drawing making the total size when framed much larger than I intended. Might be helpful to share on your site that the drawing will fill the entire page and to allow for a mat and frame which will make the final piece at least 1-2 inched larger in total size.

Perfectionby Janet D (Omaha, NE, US)

I have never been more pleased with something as I was having this sketching done. It was packaged beautifully to where I had no worries of breakage since I had mine framed. The picture was perfect from the time I was able to review it to receiving the finished and framed product. I will definitely be using MyDavinci again.

Grandma Lizby Chyna Riley (Columbia, SC, US)

I absolutely loved the portrait. The portrait was very detailed and looked exactly like the original picture. It was a sentimental gift that really touched my mom’s heart for Christmas this year. I would definitely use this company again in my future purchases. Very professional and time efficient.

Astonishing by Amber Love (Myrtle Beach, SC, US)

I sent them a picture that I needed edited before it was drawn and for no extra charge they created the exact image I wanted. I couldn’t be more pleased with them that I’ve already ordered 2 more and working on another one. They’re so realistic; it’s just top quality hand drawn pencil art. I couldn’t ask for more!!!

Great Customer Serviceby RHoag (Greenville, SC, US)

The artwork was superb and so was the customer service. I was concerned on size, and the online chat as well as the specifics that I wrote in the order were addressed. I needed this to match my other children's that had been years ago, and myDaVinci was successful. I highly recommend this site.

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!

Our little angelsby Lalena Johnston (Bozeman, MT, US)

So happy with this piece. We lost our two little angles & feel so blessed that we have this piece of artwork to always represent them & remember that they are always with us. Thank you My DaVinci!

Amazing work! by Kyra Knuth (West Des Moines, IA, US)

I will be buying more items from here! They had amazing customer service, were quick to answer emails, and the finished product was better then I expected! I will be ordering a few Christmas gifts for family members here shortly because of how easy the process was and how incredible the finished piece was! I can’t recommend them enough!

Bright, Vivid, and Colorful!by Retsuko Bollinger (Honolulu, HI, US)

It is bright, vivid, colorful, hip, pop, & funky, that really helps bring back wonderful memories that my late husband and I shared for over 40 years! It makes me happy every time I look at it! Thank you myDaVinci!

Koko in the mirrorby Jan Bergeson (Kansas City, MO, US)

This is from one of the last photos taken of our precious Koko who we adopted over 14 years ago. She lived to be 15+ years old. We could not be happier about the way this pencil drawing turned out. I would recommend myDaVinci to anyone looking for a drawling of a pet, their home, or special person(s).

Amazingby Amanda Harrah (Gibsonia, PA, US)

I recently had a drawing done from an old picture of my grandmother. The picture was very old and not the best quality and they warned me it might not turn out that great. They were so wrong. The picture turned out absolutely amazing! It was a gift for my mom and she loved it! I was so impressed with the artist's work. The whole process was pretty easy and it was fast shipping too. I will definitely be ordering from them again in the future.

Fabulousby Stacie Christensen (BOISE, ID, US)

I bought this as a surprise for my husband, for our anniversary. The image exceeded my expectations. Our images are flawlessly incorporated into the painting, and the textured art paper showcases the image beautifully. I would definitely recommend their portraits. I know it will not be my last.

My Little Boy Bradyby Steve Riggs (West Warwick, RI, US)

I can't thank you enough for the gift you gave me of Brady's portrait. It's perfect and looks just like him. It's been three months since he passed away at almost 16 years old. I had the painting for a week before I could open it because the loss is still so raw. When I did I was thrilled, and still sad, at the same time. Thank you My Davinci for creating a treasure I will cherish forever.

Love it!!!by Brittnee Smith (Macon, GA, US)

I got this photo done for my baby sisters high school graduation present. This photo was originally her senior picture! It turned out beautiful and everyone LOVED IT! Now my mom is thinking about getting this done with all of her children's senior pictures ! Service and shipping was fast and I couldn't be happier!!! Will definitely use again!!

My Clients Were So Pleased!by Marianne Thelin (Portland, OR , US)

Big Shout Out to MyDaVinci! Another realtor gave me the idea to provide a sketch of a well loved home to the owners that were moving out of state! MyDaVinci exceeded my expectations! The art was beautiful and my clients are so happy to have their well loved home memorialized! I will call on MyDaVinci again!

They loved it!by Lori (Germantown, WI, US)

I got this done as a gift for my brother's birthday. He is getting married this year and loves going tent camping, so he absolutely loved this picture and couldn't wait to hang it up. Great job on depicting their facial expressions off the images that I sent you. Will definitely consider ordering from you again!

Amazing process and amazing product!by Erin Spohn (Allegan, MI, US)

I have been using MyDavinci for roughly 25 years and have never been disappointed. They are easy to work with, easy to communicate with, and always produce a quality product!!

Wonderful 25th Anniversary Giftby Terris Woodall (O'Fallon, MO, US)

This piece was a perfect 25th anniversary gift for me to give my husband. The quality was excellent, shipping quick and the company is an overall good company to work with. I was amazed with the whole experience and my husband loved it! Thanks, MyDavinci!

Thank you for the beautiful memoryby Jennifer Reel (Raleigh, NC, US)

Your team was able to take a scanned photo that is 16 years old and turn it into a beautiful, one-of-a-kind pieces of art that now proudly displays in our home. Thank you for capturing this priceless memory in a perfect way and for making this process so easy. We are beyond happy with the work!

Watercolor of Our Homeby Jennifer Allahyarian (Norwell, MA, US)

We are extremely happy with the watercolor of our home. I gave it to my husband for Christmas and he was very pleased with his gift. During the approval process of the watercolor being created I made a few requests; the artist accommodated each request quickly and exactly as I wanted. myDaVinci also made sure we received the watercolor in time for Christmas. Thank you!

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!

Perfect Reproduction of Dogsby David Brooks (Cambridge, ON, CA)

This service is amazing. I sent a photo with instructions to remove background noise and the harnesses from the three dogs. The artists reproduced not just the appearance of the dogs, but even seemed to capture the character of the dogs through the eyes. The cock-a-poo in the drawing was 17 years old and just lived a couple weeks longer after the photo. We are happy to be able to memorialize her with her puppy friends, the 2 pugs.

Homeby Tim M. (Oak Creek, WI, US)

The artwork is beautiful, and the customer service was great. myDaVinci completed the project with a change request, and still made the short date of completion we requested. Our children loved this house warming gift. Thank you myDaVinci for making it happen!😊

Warhol Pop Art 4 Panelby Brynne Heustis (Makawao, HI, US)

This is the second one I have ordered. I LOVE it!! This one was for my niece. My first was for my daughter and hangs prominently in my hallway for all to see when they enter my house. I get compliments on it from everyone that ever sees it. It is such a cool looking piece of art and a great way to capture a specific special time in your loved ones life. I will always treasure mine for sure! Thanks again for beautiful craftsmanship at an affordable price! Will be buying more in the future for sure!!

So very happy....by Guy Ehlers (Casper, WY, US)

We had asked for my wife to appear as the Mona Lisa, and myself to appear as an observer in a museum. The result was better than we could have hoped for... the images looked just like us, and the detail was incredible. The artist captured the perfect perspective, added details such as ropes, wooden floor, floor molding, perfect lighting and shadows in a hallway... just incredible detail. Many folks have seen this and we have received very positive comments. We could not be happier !!

A great experience!by Leslie Webb (St. Albert, AB, CA)

Ordered this as a wedding gift and from the start the experience was great. Communication from and with myDavinci was prompt and always kept me up to date with where the product was at. The product was ordered, done, and received in a very short time period-about 2 weeks- and the couple loved it. Will definitely use this site again

Major General Dadby William Mesure (Quakertown, PA, US)

We were trying to find something different for our dad, and this worked out great! He is a huge military buff, so it was right up his alley. We are glad that we chose the oil painting, and not the photo option, as it looks just like a painting. I also sent in a bunch of different aged pictures and they did a great job compiling them into one good mix shot. He loves it! As did we! We will use you guys again for sure! Easy and fast! Thanks!

Perfect housewarming giftby Meg Britton (Stafford, VA, US)

Love how this watercolor painting turned out. I had two requests for changes and fully expected to pay for the second, but no! It was all included in my original price. My recipients are thrilled. Highly recommend using my da Vinci.
