Received my paintings of
Cinnamon and Miracle for
Christmas. A gift from Ali
and my dad  who have
already had pictures of
their pets done by you. All
I can say is that they are
beautiful! One of the best
gifts ever. You captured
my little Cinnamon's
expression and stance
perfectly! Kellie,

Our "miracle" cat is precious
to our family. My daughter
named her after we rescued
her off the side of the highway
after being hit by a car. She
was our miracle kitty. Thank
you so much for your beautiful
work!!! Kellie, Tallahassee, FL

My painting totally
exceeded my
expectations, I came
home from Italy, my
husband had it laid out
waiting for me,  I was
more than pleased,
needless to say it is
fantastic!!!!!!  I think
my husband was more
excited than I was
about it! I can't
believe how you
captured their
expressions.
Thanks again.

Fallon's portrait is
great!  I'm so excited
to get my Fabulous
Fallon to add to my
collection!
-KF, Phoenix, AZ
Wow! All I can say is
that when I saw the
portrait it brought tears
to my eyes.  You really
captured her facial
expression just as I
wanted.  I look forward
to seeing all the pups
come to life on canvas.

crying as I write this to you!!
