Painting From Old Picture
On this project I created a small painting from a faded picture. It was created with acrylic paint on found wood. The client who commissioned this piece received the old picture from a relative. It depicted him as a child on old family land. He was not satisfied with its condition and wanted a colored rendering of the photo. I was able to reproduce the picture in acrylic paint, almost exactly and with more vivid colors than the original. He was very pleased to see his memories come back to life and I was happy to help.

For Steampunk Airship Custom Drawing/Painting5.0Christine was great to work with. She took my crazy ideas and made them real (or at least as real as a cat driving an airship can be). Great communication throughout the project. Highly recommended.

For Becky's Cake Toppers5.0Christina was GREAT! She stepped up when another maker didn't respond to my request and sent pictures and kept me updated through the whole process. I would definitely work with her again!

For An octopus with a chainsaw and guns Project5.0I am super happy with the final project. Christina was very professional, sent me numerous updates and photos while progressing with the project. As soon as she was finished she sent it right out along with a tracking number. I received the pacakge in just a couple days. If I was to need another painting I would absolutely work with her again, as well as recommending anyone else to work with her as well.

For Karate God Busaganashi5.0Christina from Sophia's Room was amazing. She kept me abreast of each step of the project she was working on for my husbands special birthday gift. It was the first time I truly found him to be speechless as she took the idea from concept to finished art piece. My husband loves his Busagnashi and is very proud to own this fine piece of art.

For A custome painting/drawing4.8It was a awesome experience, my painting by Sophia's Room was a great piece of art and will be the center piece of my office. She really focused on the spirit of my concept and made a piece of art that I will be proud to show off for decades, her dedication to detail is hands down the best I have seen. I was so happy to have picked Sophia's Room to make this project. Mike H.
