My first experience with Paintyourlife.com was when I received my first painting of my late Grandmother as a Christmas gift. I remember just hugging it and crying because it looked SO much like her and almost brought her to life! Since I have ordered several paintings for loved ones of people whom have passed and even one for my Mom and Step Dad of the two of them as well. Most recently for Mother's Day I ordered two, one for my second Mom of her late Mother and one for myself of my own Mother who passed two years ago. Both turned out amazing and have touched so many people that have seen them and miss the people they are of. I will no doubt be ordering others very soon! I wouldn't trust anyone else to do portrait work for me. Thank you Paintyourlife you never let me down!

I decided to purchase a painting of my parents dog that passed away recently. My father was very depressed over the loss of his best buddy so I thought this would cheer him up. Well it definitely cheered him up, to the point where he was in tears when he saw the picture of his beloved Patches. I couldn't be happier with the quality of the painting, the customer service I received and lastly making my dad and mom so incredibly happy. Thank you paint your life.com!

The artist's talent is remarkable, the painting that I received of my dog Katie came out fantastic! I've already showed to others and told them where I got it done. I do have other pets that have passed and I'm in the processing of gathering them together and hopefully having a collage painting done. I'm very happy with with work that was done!!!

My painting is absolutely GORGEOUS!!! Only issue was with the background. I had initially asked (when photo was uploaded) for background to be changed. Unsure as to why, but it was painted with original background. It was able to be fixed, to my satisfaction, with just a solid color background.

Words cannot express my satisfaction of the painting Kate did for me of my Rylee. We lost her at the age of fifteen. The painting is an absolute perfect likeness of her. I get tears every time I look at the painting. I greatly thank Kate and Paint Your Life for the outstanding painting rendition. Rylee will again be with me everyday.

Recently received my third painting from paintyourlife.com — each one has turned out incredible! My Mother, sister-in-law, and now mother-in-law have all been absolutely blown away when we gifted them with their paintings! I can’t wait to order one for myself. Highly recommend, the process is very simple and they’re very easy to deal with if you need any revisions made.

I just received the painting I have purchased as a gift for my Dear Friend in Yorkshire England. It is currently in transit and I can't wait until she sees her beloved Dog Troy memorialized in such a lovely way. He passed away 5 weeks ago and your Artist Chris captured Troy's eyes and spirit perfectly. Thank you very much. I will be sure to leave a review and share her reaction too.

I could not believe that I got almost immediate responses to my questions from Emily or Sophia even in the middle of the night. I work late so early am's are when I need to accomplish most of my email communication regarding matters such as our incredibly beautiful painting. Also had immediate assistance via Chat for framing choice recommendations. Very much appreciated! We recently purchased an oil of our beloved Dog, size 20 x 24. Finished product was SO lifelike that I decided to order a much more detailed oil of my husband holding Mr. Marley at Carmel Beach. Colors, hues, details, backgrounds were all important to us. Editor (thank you Editor) did an amazing job. As with first purchase.....timing, ability to approve final product, service, price, complete satisfaction were identical. What a timeless piece. When it arrives....already have plans for my friend to hold so I do not present it before Father's Day.

This Company is totally reliable, and you do get exactly what you pay for. Their work is excellent and we are so very pleased with our painting - it was as good as we hoped it would be. We were glad that we chose a frame at the time as it meant we could hang our lovely painting as soon as it arrived. Our painting was well protected by the packaging and arrived quickly. No problem with this Company and we would use them again.

My sister's beautiful and wonderful dog died a couple of weeks before her birthday, I decided to get her an oil painting of the dog made as a gift. Customer service was extremely responsive and helpful each step of the way. Every contact with the company was a pleasure. And then they sent me a picture of the painting... It was absolutely stunning and better than I could have imagined it turning out. My sister absolutely loved the painting and we all cherish this beautiful tribute to our beloved dog. Thank you!

I was extremely happy with my painting of our dog, King. The artist made all of my requested edits. King crossed the rainbow bridge just a month ago. This painting will be the perfect gift for my husband's birthday in a few weeks. He is going to love it and we both will cherish being able to have King with us for the rest of our days.

For my birthday my husband gave me an oil painting of our Dalmatian Banjo, who we lost in November. It brought me to tears because it was so beautiful and lifelike. It was almost like I could reach out and pat his head. The painting captured my dog exactly as he was. I will treasure it forever. My husband said the company was a pleasure to work with and delivered everything that was promised. Both my sons now want paintings of their dogs!

Had a portrait of my children done for my wife's birthday. I sent PaintYourLife a black and white photo from Chuck E Cheese and the artist did a beautiful portrait using charcoal. It came out perfectly and my wife loves it. The entire process and support staff at PaintYourLife was incredible. So many of my friends and family are going to look into doing this for family members.

I thought about getting a painting for months. I read the reviews and decided to try it. I am thrilled I did. I am so happy with both of my paintings. Doris was my artist and she is amazing. The whole process went super smooth not one complaint from me. Very happy and impressed. I had a family picture painted for my grandson. My daughter and son in-law passed away not long after my grandson was born. The first painting was of my daughter, I loved it so much I had the second one done.They offer discounts and credits for posting reveal videos on Facebook and instagram. Huge savings! Our paintings are priceless to our family. All I can say is WOW!
