Custom Painting for Birthdays

my brother was killed in March of this year, one day before his 33rd Birthday when a truck struck him. This was the first birthday he wasn’t here to celebrate with us and this is the first Mother’s Day he isn’t here to celebrate with us, and all the special occasions and holidays he won’t be here to celebrate with us. At least we were able to make my mom smile, even if it’s only for a second. Happy Mother’s Day mommy. We love you very much. Rest easy little brother. Thank you PaintYourLife for making this moment so special! And Thank you To the talented artist Johny for the beautiful work he did.

Painted for Crystal  Fresno, CA

My mom lost her dad sadly to cancer and doesn`t really have any pictures of him and her together. She regrets not having pictures with him but it was too late to take them. She misses him so much and even certain songs make her cry. She always talks about him and how she wishes he could have been around longer to see us grow up and his birthday is right after Mother`s Day and it always hurts her that he`s gone. I wanted to get a recent picture of her and one of the last pictures we have of my grandpa before he started his chemotherapy but sadly lost that battle. He is dearly missed by all of us!!

Painted for Kristle  Groveland, NY

"This painting was done for my fiance for his birthday/anniversary present, of his grandmother who passed away a few years ago and all 3 of our girls(2 of which she never met) as well as me, unfortunately, I never had the pleasure to meet her. He loved his granny very much and she was his favorite person and influence in life! I just wanted to capture a moment we thought was impossible a picture of her and all our girls! He never cries very very rarely and this definitely made him cry and full of emotions. It melted my heart to know I gave him something to cherish for the rest of his life!! Thank you so much for capturing this beautiful moment we thought impossible"
