Paint History

I was given a Paint History custom painting for my anniversary and I couldn't be happier with it…read more Tim completely captured us as a couple, and included such perfect detail with everything from our facial expressions to the background. He even hid our initials in the background, as an added special "touch"--which we try to have our friends find every time they come over. We chose to get our painting in a floating frame, which looks amazing up on our wall. Tim was highly responsive and worked with all the details we wanted to include. I highly recommend using Paint History for creating something special for your loved ones, especially if you like giving unique gifts!

My Art Studio is here in San Diego county and I enjoy preserving the history of someone or something that is important to my clients, first photographing them and then painting them on canvas. I photograph and paint family, kids, sports, pets, brides, medical board members, and people in living history scenes and make portraits of them, freezing them in time. I charge about the same for both the photo and the canvas painting together, as other photographers do for just a photo alone. I serve all of San Diego County.

While Amy had some gorgeous border templates, we decided to go without one so that the portraits would be more versatile for framing. I'm so glad we did--guests kept telling us exactly where in their homes they planned to display their artwork. It was such a meaningful and memorable addition to the day!
