Testimonials

I am delighted with the picture. I have seen a lot of paintings of animals which are sadly lacking something, however I feel the artist really managed to capture my dog - especially her eyes. I was impressed by the way the unatractive background in my photo was changed to grass which looks much better. Thank you."

Dog Portrait

Fantastic. Thanks so much - the painting looks so like Archi and really comes to life, the way that his 'thoughtful' look, coat and even down to the grains of sand have been painted, have really made one of my photos been brought to life. Something to cherish. Many thanks for your patience! "

I had an oil painting done of one of my dogs, when we got to see the finished product, we were very impressed with it. The background in my photo wasnt very good so I asked the artist to put his own touch to it. This worked brilliantly, the likeness is so good, we will definately reccomend this service to our friends. Thanks to docoart for all their assistance too."

I had two of the same portraits done of my 15 months old grandson, one was for me and the other one for his other grandma, but unfortunately my daughter has claimed it. I couldn't believe how much the artist had captured of my photo, it was a true credit to the artist and will certainly use the company again, as I am very impressed."

Children Portrait

I had a picture of my family dog painted for my mum’s birthday. I was limited by the size of canvas I could afford but DocoArt were great support; they suggested ideas and alterations to make to portray our dog in the best light. I feel the artist managed to capture our dog’s personality in the painting. I can’t wait to see the look on my mums face. The whole process was very easy and DocoArt always kept me in the loop at different stages. Handling of delivery was great, especially since I was out of the country for several weeks with limited internet access. Definately recommend DocoArt to anyone wanting to cherish and share a memory with others."

Thank you very much for a lovely interpretation of my photo from Glastonbury festival. I chose a small size painting and the artist took this into consideration when doing the painting and they have made a striking interpretation of the photo I sent. It was completed in a very short time and I was given suggestions from the artist for alterations that would improve the final look of the painting. The painting was affordable and I'm really pleased to have an original piece of art to put in my house. Great service and I would definitely recommend it to others. Many thanks."

Cat Portrait

My husband was delighted with the picture and felt that it was a true likeness. As the photo was originally taken in Australia under very dry conditions (and items like a disposable barbeque etc beside him). It was great that the artist continuously liased with me to modify and brighten up the background (without detracting from the original attributes at all). I have to say the communication was excellent. I was given complete freedom to change these aspects and the artist took on board all changes requested. Excellent service and a lovely job! "

Cityscape Portrait

I am amazed by the quality of this portrait from DocoArt - it is just as lifelike and vivid as looking at the actual photograph. This must have taken a lot of time and effort and obviously shows the superb ability and skill of the artist. This is a present for my wife's birthday next month - she will absolutely love this gift as much as I already do. I would not hesitate to buy another portrait from the same artist again. Thank you so much for this unique, once-in-a-lifetime gift."

Children Portrait

I ordered the painting of my friend's horse for her birthday, I did specify a couple of changes to the photo to improve the composition of the painting.  When it arrived yesterday it completely surpassed expectations, the proof photo of the painting that was emailed to me was to my satisfaction, but it did not do the painting justice.  The detail is superb - every marking is exactly like the horse and even her gentleness seems to come through the painting. When I gave the painting to my friend it almost reduced her to tears she was so pleased with it. An absolute triumph and a huge credit to the artist.  Thank you so much for producing such a wonderful piece of artwork for me. I cannot recommend your service highly enough."

My husband and I are very happy with the quality and the artistic work. We were a little bit nervous at first wondering what the final product would look like. It was quite important to us, especially as the painting of our daughter was going to be a present for her grandmother's birthday. We were amazed the process of ordering online was so simple and with professional assistance all the way through, the painting was completed very quickly. The final product looks even better than described! Thank you for the great quality work and the great customer service. We will certainly order more paintings in the future. The quality of your work is outstanding! We are extremely pleased with the attention to detail and the level achieved with the final product. Thank you again for your professional business - pleasure to deal with from beginning to end. Will recommend DocoArt to all my family and friends!

Brilliant! I had my portrait few days ago and it’s perfect! I could even ask to have a few changes in the original photo, and make my hair looks longer. The painting is very vivid and full of details.  I got promoted and was looking for a nice farewell gift for my co-workers which will be significant and unique. I chose a funny old photo of our team and turned it into a handmade oil painting. It comes in a tube so it can be wrapped. If you wish to make your beloved ones happy, this gift is a great idea."

Reproduction Painting

I turned my favorite wedding photo into an oil painting portrait as an anniversary treat. My wife was so surprised and excited, that she has decided to order one more for my parents in law. My suggestion is to pick a photo which is sharp and clear. The painting turned out to be even more beautiful and impressive than the original photo. Surprisingly I could ask the artist to conceal some details which I don’t like. The downside is that my wife almost found out about it after she read an email from customer service..."
