My fiancee lost his father several years ago and they were very close. He would say often how he would have loved his granddaughter but unfortunately, she was never able to meet him. She will be two soon and I felt what better Father`s Day gift then a painting showing grandpa and granddaughter together for the first time? Our painter, Anne, is amazing and my fiancee couldn`t have been anymore overwhelmed and excited when he saw two of his greatest loves together. THANK YOU!!! ... Read more

My grandmother (nanny) passed away 5 years ago and never got to meet my son. Her death was extremely hard on my mom but her grandson gave her a little sunshine back.

This painting was a birthday gift for my Mother. It is a combined photo of her today and her father Jesse Cooper Sr who passed 30 years ago (as of 2020). The artist was not able to see all the detail of his face due to the pictures being so old and the quality being so bad. However, they presented different styles of creating what I wanted and it was with such precision that my mother was able to recognize her father threw the packaging wrap (without her glasses)!! My Mother is the 15th child of 16 children! She is her Daddy’s baby girl... a bond so strong that it simply stands the test of time. She has never allowed my siblings and me to forget him, so much so that I gave my daughter his name. Thank you all for allowing me to give my Mother a chance to be with her father 30 years later. ...

My husbands grandmother passed away a few months after our oldest turned 1, the last pictures that we have of her are from his 1st Birthday, I wanted to do something different for my husband for Christmas this year and get him something that was personal, special, and would mean the world to him. He was very close to his grandmother and took her death pretty hard. So I sent to PaintYourLife.com a picture of his grandmother holding our oldest on his 1st birthday and a picture of myself holding our youngest on his 1st birthday. I had them basically put the two pictures together, so that it looked like she was holding both of them, the finished product was amazing. And to say he LOVED IT is an understatement, he cried like a baby! Mission Accomplished!! ... Read more
