WHAT MY COLLECTOR'S SAY
​​Dena J. about Soul Seed:
"Meeting with Linda made it easy to figure out my first commission because I didn't even know where to start. She guided me through with questions, and I shared as best I could the vision I had for the piece, what mattered to me, and an investment I was comfortable with. It was a true pleasure to watch her brain create what became 'Soul Seed', using her special and unique magic. 'Soul Seed' is beautiful and deep, drawing me in, just as I hoped. The painting has so many special layers (literal and figurative) that hold special meaning to me, and for that, I'm grateful. I would definitely work with Linda again and encourage others to see the beautiful works of art she creates."

Bello O. about Nala:
My experience with you was great you kept me updated about the process throughout with pictures included. Nala's painting adds joy to our home because it’s such a cute piece of our fur baby. I would definitely refer you to someone and your name comes up when any one asks who painted Nala. So, thanks again!"

John C. about Dillon:
"When I commissioned Linda to paint a portrait of my dog, I knew it would be amazing. What I didn’t expect, was how amazing. Linda captured my Dillon perfectly. He truly comes alive off the page."

Rachel W. about Bella the Beast:
"After losing my 11-year-old Labrador, Bella, I commissioned Linda to make a portrait of her. When I opened my mail to the incredible color-pencil drawing of my special girl, I cried. The beauty and detail in the piece perfectly captured the pure love of my Bella".

Greg W. about his wife's portrait:
"Linda did an amazing job capturing my wife and her new puppy. The portrait was a Christmas gift for my wife. We both love it!"
