Paint Your Life

Painting was beautifully made. They put time and effort in getting my mother in laws smile full of dimension.

I put an order in for my granddaughters birthday (1-28-24, she is having a party that day)... her dad passed away 3 weeks after she was born. My daughter loves pictures and has struggled with not having many photos of baby and dad together. I had a great idea, Paint My Life. I had other family members use them and I loved their paintings, plus the reviews were great, I thought it would be a win-win situation, not so. The artist and I went through many edits and it had me feeling uneasy, but after the final edit, I figured, nothing's perfect, and it looked good. Well today I received the painting, I had a "Happy 1st Birthday Princess, Daddy loves you" message written on the painting. In person it looked like a 5 yr old wrote it, and it looks like princess is spelled "prineess" on the painting; instead of prin'CE'ss, it says prin'EE'ss ( the artist made an error and didn't correct it); the c looks like an e, and the handwriting is awful. I said the artist must've allowed their 3yr old relative to show his work because there's no way a real artist wrote that. I was so disappointed. I contacted Paint my life, they offered to allow me to send it back and have another artist redo it, but I need it by 1/28/24 for my granddaughter's BIG event! He said that wouldn't be possible. I was offered a partial refund, was put on hold to see how much (the words on the painting destroyed the' entire painting). With a "fair" partial refund, I planned to find a local artist to fix the wording. I paid almost $600 for my painting (including the frame), the rep came back and offered me a $40 or $45 partial refund, a slap in the face. I declined and requested an entire refund and opted to send it back. I am so disappointed. I really wanted to surprise my daughter and my granddaughter, as well as my son in laws family and friends (over 200 people were invited), there's no way I would present a painting with such sloppy writing. I honestly can't believe an artist looked at it and said "this is okay." I almost feel like I'm being punished for requesting so many edits (because of my dissatisfaction). Now I have to send it back and find something else meaningful for my grand girl's birthday gift.

Im so in love with the painting y'all did of my grandparents. My mom is going to love it for her birthday.

It was one of a kind my husband was so emotional we love it thank you paint your life and the painter thank you so much

My friends mom died like 15 years ago she got married recently and i had her mother put in her wedding photo it was amazing she loved it

I wanted to get a custom painting for our late Captain Kingsley and the painting exceeded all of our expectations. We are so happy!

Thank you!

I'm not sure how but our artists capture my father in-laws eyes but we are totally over the moon with the painting! Five stars isn't enough!

It was easy, fast, and amazing to work with. The picture came out absolutely amazing the person loved ita

Painting was the best gift I ever gave someone. They LOVED it! I will definitely be purchasing again.

The painting looks just like the photo submitted. My wife was very happy with her Valentine's Day gift.

Thank you for the beautiful painting. My dad loved it. Also the communication and response time was great

The painting turned out amazing my boyfriend loved it as his father's day gift! Very life like painting.

Has a wonderful experience. Site is easy to use. Communication is great, and the results speak for themselves.

The painting looked very realistic and definitely paid good attention to detail. My mother really loved her painting.

The process was very simple and the finished product was amazing!

The service was very good and professional. First I uploaded several photographs. The PaintYourLife people edited them to create a suitable composition for the painting, which I could then either approve or request changes for. After that the painting phase took about 10 days. I had some requests for changes, which were handled without any questions. The painting I received is lovely and I also like the frame they put it in. The person I bought it for was very happy with it.

My only nitpick is with the delivery. I didn't know this at the time, but the painting would be imported from the UK. I live in the EU, so there was a significant (possibly Brexit-related) delivery delay and an import fee that I was not previously informed about. I understand these things are beyond the control of this company, but as I wasn't even told where the painting would be shipped from, I had no idea what was going on when the announced delivery date came and went, and the fee also came as a surprise. For the future, I would prefer this information to be added to the automated correspondence.

Finally, a tip for people looking to buy a painting as a gift for a particular event: Start on time! The website says that the painting can be done in as little as two or three weeks, but that's assuming you do not have any requests for changes and there are no delivery delays. I thought one month was a safe time span, but now I know it is better to give yourself at least two months.

Ordering was a simple step by step process with tons of options. And the painting came very fast with no issues so i cannot complain

Great job on the painting. We r impressed with the accurate depiction of our beloved cousin. Our family will be happy when they see it.

The actual painting is amazing! So amazing game I ordered another one. But these emails, surveys, and reviews are too much and need to stop.

This was a gift to my mother of her late parents. She cried for 20 minutes after opening it and said it was the most beautiful thing she has seen.

The painting turned out beautiful. Very nicely done. The adjustments and special touch was right on point.

Very beautiful. Priceless painting very surprised and excited that it can be hanged in the living room

Still waiting to give it to my mother in law for Christmas, but the painting looks so amazing that I know she'll love it!
