People & Pets in Oil

"I thought I would share with you a little more about the painting we purchased. My 9-yo daughter has asked for a puppy pretty much since she could speak, write, or whatever other communications means she could use to convey her desire. Finally, at the end of 2017 we brought a 6-mo old dog into the family. She finally had her 'sister,' Trixie. For a few days in March of this year, Trixie was waking up in the middle of the night. Finally, at 1:30a one morning, she woke up and became sick... long story short, by 4pm she was in a hospital in Boston and by 8pm I was bringing my daughter down from NH to 'say goodbye'. We'll never know exactly what happened to Trixie, but we all missed her terribly; none of us of course so much as my daughter Gemma. Six weeks later after she returned from spring break with her mother, I surprised her with a painting from your company - amazing rendering of both her and Trixie, the image expertly blended from two photos. The painting was so perfect, in fact, that the shock and surprise on her face turned almost immediately to tears, as she broke down sobbing uncontrollably with the memory of her deceased 'sister'. A week or two later I asked her if she wanted to see the painting again, and she said No, tears returning to her eyes. Her mother and I think that perhaps as she connects with a new puppy we received last week, she'll reflect on her time with Trixie without sadness, and we can bring the painting out again. But, for now, it sits in its tube in my basement, patiently waiting it's time to bring the memory of Trixie back into the family. After receiving your email I discussed with Gemma whether she would be willing to have her likeness (and Trixie's) shown on your website. She thought that would be a nice memorial to Trixie, even if we didn't have the painting shown in our own home. So, unfortunately, I won't be sharing with you pictures or video of her reaction with the painting (which is beautiful, of course). But "

"I ordered the painting for my husband for Father’s Day. We have a son and 2 dogs who mean the world to him. Now he’ll have a painting of his 3 boys forever. My experience with Paint Your Life was so great. They were able to edit my picture before sending it to the painter (Kate). It was so easy to request revisions and they will not finish the painting until you are completely satisfied. I am a happy customer and I would highly recommend Paint Your Life. Also, their support team is very helpful and made this a great buying experience."
