<div>I received my painting last week and was completely ecstatic about it. It was perfect, everything I had hoped it would be. The detailing and craftsmanship was perfect. I had requested it by a certain date as it was a gift for my boyfriend and I received it well before then. I cannot wait to give it to him. Thank you sooo much!!</div>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Below is our painting recently completed by the talented artist from portraitpainting.com.</p>
<p>In the initial proof, there was a fatal error&#8211;they are blue eyes with the original photo, however, it was brown on the canvas when completed. &#8220;The original image is too small and it looks like their eyes&#8217; color is brown&#8221;, our artist said. Thanks for the customer emailed us reference pictures for their blue eyes,  the corrected portrait turned out so beautiful.</p>
<p>Yes, absolutely the higher resolution of  the original photo is, the more realistic and human look of the painting would be.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Below is a recent horse painting we completed.  In the original photo, the horses ears were cut off.  Our customers one request was to complete paint so the horses ears were not cut off.</p>
<p>In the second photo, you will see a picture of the completed painting.  The painting looks just as good (if not better in my opinion) as the original.  The painting measures 20&#8243; x 30&#8243; and it is an oil on canvas.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We completed this order several weeks ago.  The original photo was rather old and grainy.  When working with old photos, it&#8217;s sometimes difficult to turn the photos into paintings because it&#8217;s difficult to see the intricate details of the photo.</p>
<p>The customer in this case wanted the painting done but with a few changes.</p>
<p>Here were the customer&#8217;s requests.</p>
<blockquote><p>The first photo is how my in-laws should look in terms of where they stand and how their clothes look.  My mother facial expression should match exactly like the first photo except her mouth should be close like the second photo.  Also photo 2 is how I would like to have my father in-laws facial expression to look like.</p></blockquote>
<p>The third photo was created by our Photoshop expert.  We sent the Photoshop mock-up to our customer and they liked it.  We started the painting, finished it, and the customer was ecstatic.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We received this unsolicited feedback in our inbox yesterday.</p>
<blockquote><p>I just wanted to thank the company and especially the artist for doing such an amazing job on the picture of the dog.  It was for a friend of mine whose dog had its leg amputated because of cancer and then the dog passed away because of the cancer weeks later.  I gave her the painting yesterday and it brought tears of happiness to her face. She absolutely loved it and couldn&#8217;t believe how life-like it looked.  You guys really brought happiness back to her and your artist is extremely gifted.  I will absolutely use you guys in the future and recommend you to everyone.  Thanks again for the painting as she will cherish it forever!</p>
<p>Sean</p></blockquote>
