“AMAZING WORK!”

This was absolutely a beautiful painting of my family! Diana did such an amazing job and I couldn't be happier with how my painting turned out! The perfect Fathers Day gift for my husband! Really brought the photo to life!

“My furry companion of 13 years, passed away on July...”

Pierrette U.
10/1/24

My furry companion of 13 years, passed away on July 21,2024. I wanted a portrait of him in my home, as a constant reminder, he is always present, beside his urn. I could not have asked for more, the portrait is absolutely stunning.

It's unfortunate that they pretend these are actually hand painted. They print the image on canvas then have an "artist" add a few strokes to make it appear authentic. I believe in transparency, so should you.

Wonderful rendition of my beloved late husband Peter. Thank you so very much. Please take the time to thank the artist! What a talent! I regretfully could not afford to tip more than l did. It really is a beautiful picture. Has many compliments and have told of Paint Your Life in earnest

Several mistakes and delays and over $700 later, they can't tell me where my painting is. No tracking info at all. After they guaranteed it would be here in time for Christmas before we ordered. Now that we have and paid it's a different story. Buyer beware.

My husband and I had the honor of having our first born son at our wedding. Sadly, in the chaos of the day, we never got a picture of the three of us together before the babysitter changed him out of his tux. I've been beside myself about it for over a year, UNTIL this company was able to craft for me a portrait of my dreams, with my dream guy, dream baby, and dream venue as the backdrop. It is so stunning. Worth every penny. Take your time with the process and don't be afraid to ask for the edits you want. They did everything I asked and made it perfect. For added cost they'll frame it which is a huge relief. Recommend this service highly.

What a disaster. We decided to gift my son a portrait of his beloved German Shepherd for his birthday. The first artist botched the job terribly. Each revision was worse than the last. So badly they had to assign a new artist and start from scratch. This one was much better and after a few revisions produced an acceptable portrait. However, upon receiving the portrait, there is a blue ink pen line right through the top of the canvas where they were going to crop it. They are now not responding to email after promising and not sending a shipping label to return for repair.
Aside from this issue- artists should be able to produce a realistic rendition of a pet without having to be told that a German Shepherd muzzle isn't square or that a shadow should be removed from an eye. I honestly don't know how people are getting good artwork from this company. We are extremely disappointed. Photo attached- look at that weird muzzle. Absolute rubbish.

Beautiful tribute to our 10 year old family dog that we just recently lost. The artist captured his vibe, personality and the very essence of why we loved him so much in her painting of him. I would highly recommend Paint Your Life to anyone needing a portrait. Communication with the artist, customer service, ease ordering, shipping and overall quality of the work are all top notch.

The most beautiful painting! It's amazing how they were able to put two completely different photographs together and make it look like one seamless painting! My husbands reaction was so touching, it brought tears to his eyes! To have a painting of him with his parents that he lost eight years ago, it's priceless! Thank you for what you do!

This was my second purchase from Paint Your Life and I am very satisfied once again. For both paintings I sent in photos of loved ones that were not in a photo together. The artist did so amazing at combining the two. If anything has to be fixed/adjusted it is done so and promptly sent back to you for your approval. 10/10 recommend this company!

The painting came out 110% better than I expected. The whole process was amazing, they catered to my every ask (which was a lot) and made sure I loved the rough draft before starting. I got my husband a painting of his dad who passed away with our son who was born just a year after his passing. He loved it so much and hung it above the fireplace, we love looking at it everyday and we're so pleased with how it turned out! What this company does is priceless, and will be going through them again!

One of our dogs had recently passed away. Your company painted a picture of her from a photo I sent you. The painting was so realistic that it brought my wife to tears. I much appreciate your artist. God bless.

I loved the experience w paint your life. They did great. My mom passed away last year and never met my son, so I sent in 2 photos and they painted it as she was holding him. I will treasure this forever! Thank you!

The portrait made both my best friend and her mother cry, which is what I was aiming for, so thank you. It came out beautiful and they couldnt be happier with their surprise gift. Thank you so much for making a small dream of theirs become a reality.

Terry did such an amazing job!
My mom passed in 2018 and my 1st child was born in 2021.
It always hurt knowing they would never get to meet.
I received a painting of my mom holding my daughter.
I cried like a child when I opened that package.
Thank you for that Terry, you have no idea how touched I was.

Overall the process was super easy and I was really impressed by how quick they were to get everything done! From drafting my picture to getting it sent on the way to me it was extremely efficient. The artwork is beautiful, my mother immediately burst into tears when she saw it. She lost three siblings within a year and the artwork makes it feel like they are still with us. Highly recommend paint your life!

I'm so glad that I decided to gift my best friend a painting of her sweet Chloe that had passed away. She was a precious dog and the gift was so very special and absolutely beautiful. The artist did an outstanding job with her picture. I will definitely use Paint your Life again!

The experience from start to finish was amazing and very straight forward. I was amazed how they incorporated all the pictures together I sent to come up with a painting of exactly what I requested and even better. The final outcome blew me away. It is so life like. Absolutely beautiful.

Working with the artist to have the best product possible was perfect. They not only got it done so much faster than I would have expected, they also did such a beautiful and detail oriented job! I love that there are options for framing as well as having no frame at all. Shipping was faster than most stores. I appreciate all the work that went into getting my grandmother the perfect gift!

I can't even put into words how wonderful my portrait is. When my twin babies saw it they lit up like a Christmas tree. To see their late grandmother who I honestly think visit them on a daily basis it melted my heart.

This was one of the best experiences I've had. I had a painting done for my husband. It's so detailed and even more beautiful in person. They kept me updated throughout the whole process. I have other family members who now want one. It's a bit of a pricey gift but so worth seeing how peoples faces light up seeing such a heartfelt and thoughtful piece.

I had an old picture of my Brother and Sister In Law's wedding day that was not very clear.
They never got their wedding photo's due to an issue with the photographer.
I saw the ad online and decided to get them a painted version of the blurred picture.
The end product was amazing! Clear, concise and beautiful!
I can't wait to give this to them for Christmas. Thank you again and you will receive another order from me when my Grand daughter is born in February.
