"I am beside-myself-giddy! This
is brilliant! The sketch was
amazing, and this is … I have no
words; FANTASTIC, AMAZING,
EXTRAORDINARY are just
words, comparatively, and don’t
express. There was a picture I
had in my mind, and with very
little guidance from un-creative
me, you were able to take that
picture from my head and create
something far more than I could
have ever imagined it could have
been.  I am so grateful for your
advice and that you didn’t just
take me at my word as to what I
thought I wanted. The fact that
you were more concerned about
the art than simply a paycheck is
unusual, admirable, and noble. I
can’t thank you enough for gently
correcting my (lack of ) vision! I
can safely say anyone within
range of me – a few people
overseas - knows your name!
This is just positively brilliant!
The others and I are thrilled and
cannot wait to present it to our
friend. Thank YOU for sharing
your gift so people like me can
take advantage! It looks
awesome - I won't be able to get
this to him fast enough!"

"I received the art this morning and they are beautiful. I
appreciate not only your work, but you and Judy as well.
There is no question that your artwork is phenomenal.
It is the extension of your heart that you put into your
work that makes me stand in awe. Not only can I see it
in your work but your intent is powerful enough that I
can literally feel you connecting with my concept of the
SOCTOPUS™ characters.  Judy has been wonderful
as well. She makes doing business a breeze and has
been outstandingly supportive. Her words of
encouragement and support have helped me to power
through the mental and emotional fatigue of trying to
bring the SOCTOPUS™ Characters to market. Overall, I
am very grateful for you both. I feel like you are part of
my team.  Warmly,"

"It's beautiful! I couldn't help but laugh when I saw all the extra leaves on
the ground that Jess added.   Tell him he'd better hope the "symbolism"
escapes my mom. She's pretty handy with a cane.  I think she will forgive it
when she sees how many years he's taken off her face and
figure.  I love it!   I'm going to have a large one done and framed for my
parents. I'll have that placed on an easel at the front entrance when they
arrive. I plan to print off individual ones for each of the guests that will be
placed at the table settings  to designate it as a keepsake."
