Julie and I are very appreciative of the incredibly thoughtful gift you sent us. Julie got a little emotional looking at it.

It is wonderful to have a visual reminder of the place so that the memories we had there stay relatively fresh. We are completely blown away. I honestly can't think of a nicer gift.
Thank you.

Dear Russell,
I saw my buyers last night and presented them with the painting you did of their new house. The reaction from them was awesome. Seriously, I've never seen them so excited, they love the painting and were very appreciative of my gesture of thanks.

I recently sold a house in Edgemont that my 96 year old client
built himself and lived in until he took ill. I bought two
portraits as gifts, one for each of his twin sons, men now
in their late 50's who grew up in the home and had huge
sentimental attachment to it. They took one of the portraits
to the North Shore Hospice to show their Dad who was on his
deathbed. You have NO IDEA what that meant to the family in
that moment and then as a forever keepsake as the house is in
the process of being torn down. Thank you so much, the portraits
were beautifully done and they were touched beyond belief.
The PERFECT gift.

Hi Russell,
I just wanted to let you know that I delivered the portrait of “Roxanne” to the family who lost their beloved pet last week. There were lots of tears and wonderful memories. The family is so deeply moved that they now have this beautiful tribute of Roxanne over their mantle. You captured “her look” they said. J Thanks for creating something they can always treasure.

When my clients made the hard decision to list their vacation home of 15 years, the sale was bitter sweet . I wanted to give them a closing gift that was memorable and heartfelt and Russel's home portrait was exactly what I was looking for. I was thoroughly impressed with his service as he was prompt, professional and enthusiastic. All the details of the order were managed well including the cross country shipping. For the impact and quality the gift delivers , the price is incredibly reasonable. The painting turned out brilliantly and I know my clients will be thrilled when they receive it. I would highly recommend Russell’s services to anyone looking for a unique sentimental gift.

I will be touting your business for sure. I'm so impressed - with the product - the packaging - the presentation!
Thank you a million!!
-------------------------
I had the pleasure of delivering the two portraits you did for me. It was a picture of the home they sold and a picture of their new home. The one they sold was this family's first home which had a lot of sentimental value for them especially because their two children were born there. The new home is a much bigger, newer and nicer home which they love.
I had them open the new home first and that wowed them. The second one just overwhelmed them. When I delivered the portraits I reached into my pocket and gave them two hooks to hang them on which I will continue to do for all future portraits because that causes them to hang them while I am still there.
It is a good feeling for me to deliver such worthwhile housewarming gifts to my clients.

Hi Russell,
I present the portrait to the client on the possession date (Tuesday). When I open up the box, they recognized it is their building and I can see the tear around their eyes. They are so touching and they said this is the most unique portrait they have ever seen.
They really like it so much. It is awesome to find the client a lovely home and seeing their excited moment when they saw your portrait.
Again, thank you so much for the masterpiece you made.

Russell,
I just wanted to email you and let you know that we presented your House Portrait to our client and she was blown away...she loved her painting so much that she took a picture of it and changed her Facebook profile picture to her painting pic!!! She has sent us TWO notes telling us how touched she was by the painting, that it is perfect and that it is one of the nicest gifts anyone has ever given her. If you knew this lady...she is a tough cookie and her painting just melted her heart. SO GREAT!!!!

Brilliant and truly impressive first delivery of your work today! My staff and I are floored- it won't be long before the rest of Victoria catches on. Thanks for the great product!
See below for the picture of our happy client with your portrait!
"Mary is ever so enjoying the print of her home, she loves the colors and details it portrays as shows little things she hadn't noticed. It is hanging above her night table and the lamp on the table lightens and reflects it beauty in the evening hours. A true Sentiment of a perfect gift."

"I have ordered Russell's House Portraits for many of my clients, I can't say enough about the outstanding level of service and follow up that Russell provides. The portraits are beautifully packaged and the value is unbeatable. A couple of different clients of mine loved their house portraits so much that they had tears of joy, it's a "Truly Heartfelt Gift" as Russell puts it. It's also something that clients will hang on their walls and always remember you for future referrals"

Here is a testimonial from a Home Owner that they put on their facebook page!
My clients absolutely loved the painting that you did of their house on Kings in West Van. It made her cry......she has raised her family in that house and now they are onto a new chapter including grandchildren etc. The whole family just loved it and it will be put in a very special spot in their new home.
I know it was a wonderful gift and I thank you for that.

Russell has provided not only me with a great closing gift for my business, but he has also created a way for my clients to keep their dearest memories close. His creations manage to retain the most striking points of a subject and his creative experience allows for beautification of any points that would detract from the piece. I highly recommend Russell's house portraits for anyone who wishes to make a lasting impression on a buyer OR a seller. Great work, Russ!"

Hi Russell,
I just wanted to let you know that I delivered the portrait of “Roxanne” to the family who lost their beloved pet last week. There were lots of tears and wonderful memories. The family is so deeply moved that they now have this beautiful tribute of Roxanne over their mantle. You captured “her look” they said. J Thanks for creating something they can always treasure.
-------------
When my clients made the hard decision to list their vacation home of 15 years, the sale was bitter sweet . I wanted to give them a closing gift that was memorable and heartfelt and Russel's home portrait was exactly what I was looking for. I was thoroughly impressed with his service as he was prompt, professional and enthusiastic. All the details of the order were managed well including the cross country shipping. For the impact and quality the gift delivers , the price is incredibly reasonable. The painting turned out brilliantly and I know my clients will be thrilled when they receive it. I would highly recommend Russell’s services to anyone looking for a unique sentimental gift.

Hi Russell:
Just picked up the painting - WOW!!! Love it!!!! Amazing, so very pleased.
I will be touting your business for sure. I'm so impressed - with the product - the packaging - the presentation!
Thank you a million!!
-------------------------
I had the pleasure of delivering the two portraits you did for me. It was a picture of the home they sold and a picture of their new home. The one they sold was this family's first home which had a lot of sentimental value for them especially because their two children were born there. The new home is a much bigger, newer and nicer home which they love.
I had them open the new home first and that wowed them. The second one just overwhelmed them. When I delivered the portraits I reached into my pocket and gave them two hooks to hang them on which I will continue to do for all future portraits because that causes them to hang them while I am still there.
It is a good feeling for me to deliver such worthwhile housewarming gifts to my clients.

Hi Russell,
I present the portrait to the client on the possession date (Tuesday). When I open up the box, they recognized it is their building and I can see the tear around their eyes. They are so touching and they said this is the most unique portrait they have ever seen.
They really like it so much. It is awesome to find the client a lovely home and seeing their excited moment when they saw your portrait.
Again, thank you so much for the masterpiece you made.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!

The package arrived today and I’m….blown away – it’s beautiful!
This was the family home that he grew up in and his Mom lived in it from construction to just a few months ago (50+ years). I’m sure he’ll cherish the painting and the memories.

Hello, I recently sold my home and my Real Estate agent, Steve Duben of ReMax, was kind enough to commission a portrait of my house. I received this gift and was enchanted. Leaving a home you love is never easy. However, the portrait was beautifully done and, with it, I can take a little bit of my home with me.
Thank you,
