couldn't be happierEXCELLENT work! Absolutely beautifuul workmanship, high quality and just couldn't be happier. After the sample review, I asked if they could bring out her bright blue eyes and they did without hesitation and got the final review back almost immediately and the eyes were just like the picture. Would highly recommend to anyone, in fact I have had others done before this and was just as happy and have referred several people and they loved there's also. Thank you for making our fur babies come alive in your renditions!

Just like the photoReally 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.

Ajaxi, our dogWe 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

Father's Day gift for the winMy DaVinci soared above and beyond my expectations for this Father's day gift. They were able to work with me when my photo was too pixelated for an oil painting and helped me switch to a different style. The process was smooth and it is unreal how they were able to capture the photo so flawlessly. I am definitely the favorite kid this year.

Mr. PeepersMr. Peepers (Mel) is a rescue cat, who rescued who? Mr. Peepers is the light of my mothers life and she loved this picture I took recently of him so I knew I had to do something special for her. I right went to MyDavinci to create something she can smile every time she goes into her living room and she does. Thank you again for making such wonderful life time gifts or your customers.

My buddy, Mr Boog, dog printThe colored pencil drawings of my Bulldog Mr. Boog is amazing! The life like print was so perfect and real like that it warms my heart. I highly recommend MyDaVinci to others. What a great gift to provide someone that is personal for someone you love just in time for Christmas. The communication and delivery was also spot on. Thank you to the Artist and this company.

My Sweet Girl D'LylaI Love my Sketch of our Sweet Girl! It absolutely captures her sweet nature and sparkle - while eliminating the background in the true photo. This is my second sketch done by MyDaVinci and would return again for another !!

Amazing work!This is the 3rd time I have used myDaVinci and I am yet again extremely impressed! You should be able to make up your mind just in looking at the reviews/pictures but I highly recommend if you are considering. I have had 3 different pieces created in 3 mediums (pencil sketch, colored pencil and watercolor) and all have turned out better than I had hoped. Makes for a very thoughtful gift that lasts forever. Repeat buyers tip - Assuming you don't have a special frame the piece needs to go in, have it shipped in a frame they sell. So much better having it ready to go when you receive. (I did not opt for this option on my first to save money)

LarryI am very happy with the drawing done of my daughter’s kitty. Although the photo I liked best couldn’t be used, this was a good substitution. The process was very easy and I received the drawing quickly. I know the drawing will bring a smile to my daughter’s face on her birthday.

Beautiful WorkI order two prints for my parents of their great Granddaughter for Easter. I gave to both of them today. The pictures were just beautiful and touched them so much. Great job by this artist and the one who did my another one. I have been using Mydavinci for close to 15+ years so you can guess I love their products.

Excellent quality!We had our dog painted as a gift and were very pleased with the results as well as the service. The painting showed more personality that wasn’t evident in the photo we sent. Thanks - we are very likely to do another dog portrait in the future.

Mother and DaughterI was looking for a unique Christmas gift for my mother. I recalled watching the sketch artists in Rome's Piazza Navonna last summer and searched the Web for a local artist. I found nothing in my area but I discovered your website and sent two of my favourite photos of my wife and daughter. The finished portrait was exceptional and my mother loved her gift. Well done. I'm searching for other photos that may be suited to a protrait rendering.

Just BeautifulI ordered this watercolor of my parents’ beloved home for them after they down sized. They built this home from scratch and I thought they’d like a reminder of the legacy they’ve left. I was right. They were delighted with the Christmas gift. The details the artist included were perfect and I’m so grateful. Production and shipping were timely.

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.

Steve and JaneThis was a gift for my father, who is in a nursing home with Parkinson’s. All I wanted was something to make him smile, since he has lost the ability to do that easily. This did it! A big smile came on his face and he and my stepmother were overjoyed! Thank you for creating such a beautiful piece of art. You made an old man laugh. And that is all I wanted for Father’s Day. This is a beautiful piece of work. Thank you to the artist who drew it You created a beautiful memory for us.

Excellent serviceI can’t say enough about my experience with mydavinci... I wanted to have a painting done of my parents' old summer bungalow which has since been knocked down. I found 2 old photos which they were able to successfully merge into one. They gave me 2 or 3 opportunities to modify what they had completed. The photos were only of the front door with their dog sitting in front so I was a little concerned about how good it would come out. Wondered if it was enough to make a successful painting. Well, they did an amazing job!! The details they were able to include from old fuzzy pictures is astounding! My moms' eyes welled up with tears when she saw it! We can’t stop looking at it! I highly recommend!!!
