PaintYourLife.com is the online home of Paint Your Life, a company that says their goal was to provide people with a way to have their own personal, high quality art available at affordable prices.

How Does It Work?

According to their website, the PaintYourLife.com studio was established in 2006 when they decided to employ talented portrait painters to craft handmade oil paintings based on personal photos provided by their customers. 

This idea came from the belief that everyone should be able to have access to beautifully painted family and personal art that they could “enjoy for a lifetime,” the type of personally commissioned art which had previously only been available to people of wealth and means. 

The website provides their customers with what they call an “easy 1-2-3 wizard” which allows you to upload your photos, choose your size and styles, and provide any guiding comments or special requests. The artists will then keep their customers notified by email when the painting is started, when the painting is half done, and when the painting is finished. 

As you are provided with the emails updating you on your painting’s progress, you will also be given photographs of the progress so that you can respond to the emails with feedback on the progress and suggestions for any changes or alterations you would like to be made. 

Cost/Price Plans

The cost of your painting is determined by multiple factors, including the size of the painting, the medium you choose for your painting, and the subject matter of your painting. For example, a 12” x 16” charcoal drawing of a landscape is one of their most affordable options at $159, while a 48” x 72” oil painting of two people is priced at $709. The website provides their customers with a full pricing chart, so you will always be able to see an estimation of what your custom piece will cost you. 

Refund Policy

This website does say that they provide their customers with a guarantee, which says that all customers have access to a 30 Day Money Back Guarantee. This guarantee covers lost paintings, damaged paintings, damaged frames, and even basic issues with dissatisfaction. 

As mentioned above they do provide their customers with the ability to provide feedback to their artists and have modifications made to the painting during the initial painting process. However, they will also provide you with the ability to request modifications after you have seen the painting in person. You will need to contact their Customer Service team for return instructions.
