To
make room for a new baby arriving, we decided to move our two and
a half year old son into a new bedroom. He absolutely loves trains
so we built a train track along the top of the room on a shelf. A
friend recommended a wall mural to create scenes while the train
traveled and gave us Jennifer's name. We could not be happier with
the room. Jennifer did an exceptional mural to create
different scenes and make the room unforgettable. We highly
recommend Jennifer for any room in your house and can not wait for
the opportunity to call her again!

Hi
Jenn,
You've done a magnificent job with our kitchen backsplash! Looking
at it makes us feel like we're on vacation year round. It's
incredible how much of an impact the scene makes in the
space. Art wakes up the senses and stirs the soul so we feel
it's important to enjoy it in some way. Because our kitchen is
open to the family room, it is the first thing you notice when
walking through the house. What a dramatic difference it made! You
always dazzle and amaze us with every mural you've painted for us.
This one is definitely one my favorites. It's one of a kind. THANK
YOU SO MUCH, my talented friend!!!

Jennifer,
You
have used your artistic abilities to bring new life to our
Pediatric patient rooms at Lakeview Medical Center. Our patients
get
excited and actually request to go into one room over another.
It's
nice to be able to bring comfort and tranquility to patients and
their
family when they visit our Pediatric office. Your ability to walk
into
a space, see a vision and be able to paint this
"free-handedly" is
awesome. Thank you for helping us to refurbish and renew our
Pediatric
office space."

Jaden,
Thank you for creating the happiest nursery on the planet! You've created a
space that is happy and soothing. Not only that but you have created a space
where we can't wait to interact with our daughter. We are so impressed with
your work, as is everyone we've shown the mural to. My mother is excited to see
what animal her granddaughter responds to first. We love showing off your hard
work and watching our friends and family notice all the details from the heart
in the tree with our initials to the glitter in the blossoms.
Thank you again for sharing your time and talent with us and most of all, our
fabulous mural,

Dear
Jenn~
WE absolutely LOVE it!! It came out perfect!!! It was exactly the look we were going for, we just wanted something with the look and feel of an African plain at dusk, and that's exactly the impression you get when you walk in! Thanks so much,
Jenn.

Jennifer has painted in our home for over the last three years and my husband and I are constantly amazed at her ability to paint exactly what “we were thinking.” Our latest painting, we wanted her to create a tropical balcony scene including the ocean, a valley and a path leading into a forest. We had no physical picture to show her; however, she took the time and talked to us and sketched out an example.
She painted in our house for a week and we left notes and phone messages back and forth. When I saw the finished product, my eyes truly flooded with tears. In all my excitement and questions, she even remembered to paint a couple of butterflies that I briefly mentioned to her on our initial meeting. You see, butterflies remind me of my grandmother.
Family and friends just stare in awe at the incredible details and picturesque scenery she paints. Jennifer is what we call a “true artist.” She is not an art scholar from an Ivy League college. She is more than that! Her grandfather had “this gift” and she inherited it. It is in her blood and she genuinely cares about producing that certain “look” that you want to achieve. Honest, trustworthy and respectable, she has all those qualities, and then some, rolled into her cheerful personality. After meeting and knowing Jennifer, you will have a new friend for
life.

Thanks to Jenn’s artistic talent as well as her caring nature, she has provided a visual confirmation that my daughter’s re-constructed bedroom is now a safe place. In February 2007, our dream house burned down after we had spent over a year remodeling. For the remainder of last year, we have painfully dealt with insurance and construction companies piecing our home together.
My nine-year old daughter has never forgotten the fear she lived watching the flames engulf our home, and she has been very reluctant to even talk about our Norfolk, VA home. I wanted to give my daughter some hope, a reason to be excited to move back into our “new” home again. I contacted Jenn to assist me in creating a tropical paradise that would invite her to relax in a room that felt more like a private island. Jenn was honored to be the one to help, and she had the expertise to offer many ideas to an exhausted mother trying to manage a career, contractors, and creativity while keeping the mural a surprise.
Once Jenn got started, she put her heart and her soul into the project knowing her talents would not only be viewed as wonderful, but would provide some much needed healing to a young girl. The final product is stunning…has palm trees, a beach, and tropical animals on the walls opposite the bedroom door. Once my daughter walked into her revitalized room, she could not find the words to express how beautiful her new surroundings were. The smile on her face lets me know the healing has accelerated, and the smoke has finally cleared to let the sun shine into her heart. The room is alive and breathing, as is our house and our family!!! Thanks Jenn so much for helping our family to not only mend from our tragedy, but grow. My daughter is no longer afraid of the house, and looks forward to spending time in her own "tropical oasis room".

Jenn,
Thank you so much for transforming the girl’s room into a Caribbean Dream. It amazed me how you were able to take my vision and put it on the walls. Every night as they fall asleep they can hear the waves and they dream of our next trip to the islands. You really are a talented artist and a pleasure to work with. The detail you include in your murals is amazing and I enjoyed watching the process. I was very surprised at how quickly you completed the project and what detail you included. Thanks for making the girls dreams come true and we look forward to working with you on "The Tree House".

Dear Jennifer,
We absolutely love the mural you painted for us in our office. Everyone stops by to admire it. It came out just as we wanted and we would not change a thing. Every time we look at it we think we are at the beach and we can walk right into the picture. You are very talented and you did an amazing job. It was truly a pleasure having you here. I wish you much success in the future. Thank you!

Jenn,
Thank you so very much for painting our baby's nursery. I do not think we'll ever want to move, as that would mean leaving our beautiful alphabet room! We love the pictures of our dog and cat...it makes the room so special. We couldn't believe how quickly you were able to finish-especially while you were sick and pregnant. No duty is more urgent than that of returning thanks-you have touched our hearts with your generous gift and awesome talent.
Love,

I love what you did to my Mom's house!!! The landscape is wonderful, the tulips are the best. The topiary you did is so life-like I just want to water it!! You are an amazing person with a wonderful soul, and I'm not just saying that because you are my best friend!! You are truly so talented and I love all your work, but my Mom's is the best!
Love,
