My brother, sister & I wanted to give our parents a unique gift for Christmas that would be memorable and lasting and when I came across your website on the internet, I knew I had found the unique gift!

Thank you Paint Your Life!!! :)"

"The painting of my old homeplace turned out better thatn expected. It has been over 60 years since I lived there and the house is falling apart, full of storage items , had missiind outer wll boards and cluttered with junk on the exterior. The artist was able to remove all of that and get us a painting of the house , replacing the wall biards, the porch and removing all the debris around the exterior. This is a nice 50th Anniversary gift from my wife. Also, I will be making the frame from the wall boards I retrieved! Thanks for the painting!"

"My siblings and I wanted to get something really special for our parents 25th wedding anniversary, when I thought of a painting of their wedding picture. At first I was skeptical because I thought it would cost a fortune, after I saw the prices I was so excited that we would have it done. Then we hit a roadblock, we only had 2 weeks until the anniversary date... but not only did paint-your-life send it to me within a week the customer service was excellent, I couldn't have asked for a more pleasant experience! I am a customer for life!"
 
Anita Baughman,  OH, United States, Jul-15-2008 
"I just received the painting that your company did for my parents 50th wedding anniversary gifts. My family and I could not be more pleased! The patience and understanding that your company extended us to get it "just right" was beyond anything we have experienced dealing with an online company. We greatly appreciate all the consideration we were shown. Now we cannot wait until October to share it with our parents and our friends. Thank you."
Monica Smith,  WA, United States, Jun-30-2008 
"I was looking for something special for my husband for our anniversary. I normally get him something ordinary, and decided to get him something different. We have Bernese as our children, and the females he calls "his girls." I found a picure of our first dog (Sarah) that we lost 2.5 years ago to cancer, and one of our current dogs (Maddee.) They did a wonderful job of putting the two pictures together. When I received the proof by email, I was so excited! But the proof was nothing compared to the real painting. I cannot believe the detail that was out into it. My husband will be excited to get it. I can't wait to see the look on his face. I have already recomended the website to two of our friends that have dogs. Thanks again for creating a special gift for my husband."
Amy,  TX, United States, Jun-21-2008

Shawna Hernandez,  NC, United States, May-2-2008 
"I was a little apprehensive ordering this item from the internet. I had doubts about anyone in this world capturing the importance of this oil painting for me. But, I have to say, you did, and you passed all of my expectations. I gave this painting to my husband for our first anniversary. We are so pleased and excited to have it to cherish forever. Very detailed and life like, amazingly beautiful! Thank you! A special thank you to the artist, I didnt have my painting signed, I very much regret that."

Julie Tucker,  Troy, MO, United States, Sep-25-2007 
"Oh my gosh! I was so impressed with the entire situation! beginning with Avitar in Customer Service, whom is absolutely prompt, polite and very helpful, thnak you. Then when I saw the painting online, I knew right then that there was so much talent put into my wedding portrait...because I began to cry. It was a secret for my husband until my anniversary. I needed a couple of minor changes and not because of the artist, but because my picture was so poor, and the artist not only fixed the painting, but it just is beyond me how they brought my husband and I to "life' through a stroke of a brush with oil paint on it! Well, with the changes, I did not think I would get the painting on time, and they made sure I did! My husband's reaction was priceless, he just stared and was at a loss for words, until finally he looked up with tears in his eyes and said WOW! WHO did this, it's stunning! Well, of course I told him it was you and he just could not stop looking at it and commenting on how wonderful a job the artist did...and speaking of that, I cannot believe that some peole would not want their artist to sign their work... I considered it a requirement that this artist put their "mark'on my painting. We are simply byone pleased and would consider it an honor to be on your website...I have told everyone about you and I have a feeling you will be getting a surge of business real soon! Thank you so much to everyone involved in the whole process...I will be a repeat customer and will always reccommend you! you gave my wedding a beautiful new and lifelong gift! Thank you, The Tucker's "
 
Robert Rusho,  Parker, CO, United States, Sep-4-2007 
"I didn't know what to get my wife for our 26th anniversary, and then I found out that the contemporary gift for a 26th anniversary was an original painting. A search of the internet led me to your site, and that's when I decided to request a potrait of our cat, which my wife dearly loves. The portait was excellent! Not only was I pleased with the artist's rendering, I was also pleased with the turn around time. We would definitly use your service again. Please thank the artist for us. Regards, Bob Rusho"

"The charcoal drawing done for our one year anniversary was outstanding in all the details. Both my boyfriend and myself are in the military and they were able to take a picture of my boyfriend in a military picture that will be treasured for life. I would use this company again for more special times in my life."
 
Sadinaz,  Orlando, FL, United States, Aug-9-2007

"I had a wedding photograph painted for my parents wedding anniversary. I was AMAZED by the beautiful painting created by our very talented artist. She nailed it! She captured my parents spirit on their very special day. Once my painting shipped- I received it less than 5 days later (and my mom was visiting- how lucky am I??) Also, I ordered my painting to be framed but was told that it was better to ship in a tube as, my framed piece may shatter..... I really appreciated the honesty!! I can not stop talking about "Paint Your Life"!! I am looking for more pictures to have painted! Thank you for the treasure!! "

Kerrie Kramer,  Clinton, IA, United States, Mar-28-2007 
"I ordered an oil painting of our 18mo old Redbone Coonhound "Drum" as an anniversary gift for my husband. The attention to detail is impressive - he is an outside dog and, dispite his needing a bath, the artist painted the color of his coat dead on. It is a beautiful painting and I know that my husband will be proud to hang it in his office. "

Carka Kearin,  Milpitas, CA, United States, Feb-8-2007 
"I wasn't sure what to expect as I simply found you on the internet. Fantastic!! Fantastic service...Fantastic painting!!! The photo you send for approval does not do justice to the actual painting. This is my husband's 10th Anniversary gift, I can't wait until he sees it. He proposed to me in Hawaii, this painting of the two of us standing by the water on Maui is perfect for our celebration. The eyes are especially well done, you captured them perfectly. I will most definitely place another order before Christmas this year. Now that I have found you, I just may not let you go."
