| 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!!!

Dear
Jenn,
I love my tropical mural. I especially love waking up to the
wonderful tropical mural. You did a great job and I love it.
I especially love the flowers. You did a great job. Thanks for
making my room turn into a wonderful place that I want to be
in all the time.

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.

a very talented artist and keep up the wonderful work you do!
Thanks for the special heart you added in the mural, that was
so sweet!

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,
Marcie, Justin, & Baby Cholewinski

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,
