Hand Drawn Pencil Portraits from Photos | Pencil Portrait Drawing | Pencil Sketch ArtistsThe perfect picture!! by Tori Schoonover (Johnson City, NY, US)

This drawing of my 3 dogs was the best gift I've ever received. The accuracy was absolutely unbelievable. It's like my dogs are staring back at me. I can't recommend this company enough. I would give them 10 stars if I could !!!

Pop Art Elegant Colors from Photosbaby photoby Leslie Paul (Miami, FL, US)

I like the photo. MAybe I should have previewed it first. I would have like the background to be a little lighter for more contrast. but I was happy with the quality and service. I called to change from paper to canvas, and was taken care of with no problem. came very quickly. thank you.

Personalized Masterpiece A Royal Couple from PhotosBeyond impressedby Jeff (Bentonville, AR, US)

Purchased this as a wedding gift for a family member. This was last minute as they decided to get married only a couple weeks ago. The couple does all their RenCon festivals so I thought what better gift than a royal painting! I downloaded the appropriate pictures 8 days before the wedding. The next day received a review of what the canvas would look like and approved the picture. To my surprise I got a tracking number showing the canvas had been shipped and the canvas arrived 7 days after I ordered! This thing turned out great, was impressed not only with the quick turn around but also the quality of the print. I did not expect to have it in time to give the couple at the wedding but I did, and they loved it! Thank you so much for the quality work, expedited shipping, and excellent communication along the way!

Custom Royal Portrait Queen Victoria from PhotoGreat results! by Ryan Sipherd (Orem, UT, US)

We surprised a friend of ours with this fabulous portrait. The tricky part was getting a photo without her suspecting, but it worked! She was truly surprised and she loved it. Well worth the effort and price. The result was very convincing. I would purchase again.

LeonardoNew addition to the family by Kim Voorhees (Piscataway, NJ, US)

We are having our 5th grandchild in the family. I wanted to do something different for his arrival and part of the baby shower gift. My artist did a great job following my lead. We love this and can’t wait for the family to see. Thank you again for first class art work and memories for that family.

Hand Drawn Colored Pencil Portraits from Photos | Colored Pencil Drawings from Photoscolor pencilby P.M. ( NY, US)

I had this picture done as a gift for someone. I was amazed at the detail and the likeness of the dog. When I presented the art piece to my friend, she said that it looks like having her dogs personality come right through the picture. I plan on having a picture of my 3 dogs done in the future.

Cannot believe how amazing it turned out. It exceeded my expectations and brought tears to my eyes instantly. I was happy with the preview but when it arrived (super quickly might I add!) I was so stunned to see how realistic and perfect it turned out. I cannot wait to give it to my spouse for Christmas he is going to cry- so perfect. Will be ordering more.

Oil Painting Giclee Portraits from PhotosExcellent work and great service!by Elmer Tolentino (Livermore, CA, US)

This company was very patient and professional, helping me getting the work done to my satisfaction and in a timely manner. I actually did not approve the first 3 versions of the work but it did not matter. They continued to work with me through the various interations until I was completely happy. The final work of art was done beautifully and the look on my Wife's face when she saw the portrait will forever be remembered. Thanks MyDaVinci! I am a customer for life. Jon from California

Hand Drawn Colored Pencil Portraits from Photos | Colored Pencil Drawings from PhotosNoraby Karen Grabherr (Bristol, CT, US)

We absolutely loved the drawing of Nora, a 10yo Great Dane who passed away on her Birthday. We gave the sketch as a gift to the family and they adore it. My Davinci were so easy to work with and accommodating. I loved the way they give you a preview of the sketch so you have the opportunity to change or add anything you want to the picture. Will definitely tell my friends about this! Just like a friend showed me!

Hand Drawn Pencil Portraits from Photos | Pencil Portrait Drawing | Pencil Sketch ArtistsAstonishing by Amber Love (Myrtle Beach, SC, US)

I sent them a picture that I needed edited before it was drawn and for no extra charge they created the exact image I wanted. I couldn’t be more pleased with them that I’ve already ordered 2 more and working on another one. They’re so realistic; it’s just top quality hand drawn pencil art. I couldn’t ask for more!!!

Hand Drawn Pencil Portraits from Photos | Pencil Portrait Drawing | Pencil Sketch ArtistsGreat service!by Jason Gold (Garden City, ID, US)

I Ordered a hand-drawn sketch as a christmas gift. After sending in the photo, an associate from mydavinci.com emailed me within a day, verifing what I wanted done. About a week later, they emailed me again with what they had done. I had to approve the product before they would actually send it to me. The sketch was awesome. After my approval, the sketch arrived in the mail within a week. The sketch was even better in person. It was top quality.

Hand-Painted Watercolor Portraits from Photos | Custom Watercolor Painting from PhotoGorgeous!!by alice roper (New York, NY, US)

The picture was absolutely gorgeous! My mom was so surprised and thrilled by it. The graphic designer nailed it on the first try. The process was smooth, seamless and quick.

Hand Drawn Colored Pencil Portraits from Photos | Colored Pencil Drawings from PhotosBeautifully detailedby Lexanne Hamilton (New York, NY, US)

The photo I sent wasn't the best so I expected a sort of impressionist drawing at best. Imagine my surprise when a beautifully detailed and colored pencil drawing arrived. The artist must have zoomed in to get such faithful detail. The whole drawing gave exactly the mood I hoped for - a simple yet dramatic house in a lush forest. The recipient was so delighted and couldn't stop exclaiming over it. The only downside was that I ordered it framed - before I opened the package to wrap it, I heard the tinkling sound of many pieces of broken glass - and sure enough the glass covering the art had shattered somewhere in the shipping process. It hadn't harmed the art itself and I think I would have had it reframed anyway with a mat that enhances the colors - and now I definitely will do that. Otherwise A++++ experience with excellent communication about approval or possible changes (I had none) and the art arrived in plenty of time, just as promised.

Hand-Painted Watercolor Portraits from Photos | Custom Watercolor Painting from PhotoStunningby Cheri T. (Ewing, NJ, US)

Hand Drawn Pencil Portraits from Photos | Pencil Portrait Drawing | Pencil Sketch ArtistsOur special miracle babyby Christine Hinkle (Galloway, OH, US)

My son and daughter-in-law really loved that picture of their son. Such a striking resemblance to the picture I sent you. This is such a precious little boy that was such a miracle baby for my son and his wife. After 10 years of marriage they were blessed with this child .You couldn't have done a better job with sketching my Grandson. I'm sure they will always treasure it always........

Hand Drawn Pencil Portraits from Photos | Pencil Portrait Drawing | Pencil Sketch ArtistsChristmas present for my sisterby Lynn Underwood (Mt.Pleasant , TN, US)

OMG!! I looked around everywhere for someone to do a sketch for my sister a Christmas present. She doesn't have kids so her furbabies are it for her. I stumbled across MyDainvci on Google doing a search. I checked them out, they had a large selection of things to choose from. For the right price too. I placed my order and they got right back to me. They answered all my questions. They were courteous and polite. When they were finished they sent me a proof imagine and I was blown away. I was very satisfied. I'll be doing more business with them if I ever need this kind of work done in the future. I've already recommended them to a friend. They sent me the sketch right away. It didn't take forever. I highly recommend this company.

Hand Drawn Pencil Portraits from Photos | Pencil Portrait Drawing | Pencil Sketch ArtistsJuliet @ Fourteen and a half yearsby Myra Riollano (Bronx, NY, US)

I couldn't believe my eyes when I first saw the sample. It is truly beautiful, just like my Juliet. I will treasure this forever. I was always hesitant to place my order and I am so happy that I did. I thought having a pencil sketch would be best since she is silver. Every one that sees it can't believe how it is exactly as my picture. Thank you so much for capturing my Juliet's beauty.

Hand Drawn Pencil Portraits from Photos | Pencil Portrait Drawing | Pencil Sketch ArtistsMore than imaginableby Mark Vaughn (Buffalo, NY, US)

The drawing was a christmas gift for our parents of their first house. They were so surprised and speechless, the emotions were flying high. They immediately hung the drawings and made sure that all visitors over the holidays were shown the gift they received. We were very satisfied with the ordering process, turn around time and authorization process and most of all the final product right down to every detail. It was more than we could ever imagine. Thanks for making our Holidays very memoriable.
