For Portrait of CatThis is my second time working with David and I was even more impressed with his work this time and I wouldn't have thought that would be possible. The first time he did a portrait of our yellow lab standing along the edge of the lake and it was perfect. But this time he did an incredible portrait of my daughter's 15 year old black cat, which she loves dearly. It is absolutely superb! He is also a pleasure to work with in every way. Thank you so much David!

For Lab Dog Custom Portrait, Watercolor, Labrador RetrieverI am so glad I discovered David, and so pleased with the result. He used two different photos to create a portrait of my grandchild and his dog that captures their personalities perfectly; it is like he knew them! I highly recommend David to others.

For Pet PortraitDavid painted a beautiful portrait of our beloved Shih-Tzu, Gabby, who gave us 16+ years of joy. The unveiling was a very emotional moment for my wife because David's portrait captured the dog's personality, perfectly. Bravo!

For My three labs portraits. IndividualIt was so easy working with Custom Made and David Scheirer. He is a very talented artist and I am thrilled with the three custom 8 X 10 watercolor portraits he did of my three labrador retrievers. Communication was easy and he delivered exactly what I wanted in a very timely manner. Would use his services again for sure! Thanks David for the beautiful watercolors. They will be loved for a very long time!

In fact, it came out better than I was expecting. And, he was a pleasure to work with. Can't say there is any way this project could have come out better.
