Painting From Old Picture

$125

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.

    Christine really exceeded my expectations on this project. Her attention to detail is superb. She kept me informed the entire time on all the progress. I would highly recommend her to anyone and will definitely use her again If and when I need something else done. Thank you for the outstanding work!!!!

    Christina 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.

    Excellent work though the timeline was a little tight, and good communication to help give me what I wanted!

    Tina could not have been any easier to work with. My wife and I are so pleased with the results, and wish we had more to ask Tina to work on for us.

    It 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.
