Testimonials

We received our painting of Rachel, who was a beloved mixed-breed who passed away in Jaunary 2013. Looking at the painting was like seeing our dog again. Leanne does beautiful work and we are so grateful.

I've commissioned Leanne to work on two web design projects for me – and the fact that I came back to her again four years after the first design should tell you everything you need to know about her abilities and professionalism. She is incredibly creative, and able to work to the most specific brief with grace, good humor, and creativity. She has impeccable attention to detail, and can take your vague thoughts and turn them into living breathing reality. I wouldn't hesitate to use Leanne for my next project, and nor should you.

We commissioned a sketch of Sadie, a golden retriever for a Christmas gift for our dear friends. Her portrait arrived and it was immediate tears of joy and heartfelt thanks for capturing not only her sweet face, but her spirit. When presented as a gift there was immediate joy, tears and heartfelt thanks.

Leanne was able to capture so much more than a photo could.

Leanne created a beautiful portrait of my budgie (bird), which is so meaningful to me. When my aunt lost her cherished dog, I commissioned Leanne to sketch a charcoal portrait of my aunt's dog as well. My aunt loved the gift. Leanne does an amazing job at capturing detail and emotion.

My grandson has a 14 year old huskey that is having trouble walking and getting around and he knows it is time for him to go to doggie heaven. When I asked him this year what he wanted for his birthday he said "Nana I would like a painted picture of Max". I tried a couple local places and the picture just did not look like Max. I found Leanne's site on the web and so I sent her the picture and asked if she would be able to create a painting for me from the picture i sent her. Well she did a wonderful job and my grandson is so happy with the picture. Thank you Leanne for making my grandson's memory of his specail dog Max hang on his wall. I would recommend your work to anyone. I was very pleased with the communication we had during the process and got to see a sketch of the picture as well I knew it was going to be an incredible result.

Thank you again

Six months ago, my bulldog Louie passed from a rare form of vascular cancer. My heart was crushed. I never thought that a silly, grouchy dog would grab my soul the way Louie did. I miss him terribly.

Leanne painted his portrait for me. She started the process and sent me periodic postings of her progress. I could not believe what I was witnessing. It was incredible how accurate and life-like her piece was to my precious little buddy.

Sure, we all have seen amazing works of art depicted by others. Leanne's gift is something different. She captured something that few can. Louie's little soul came through in this piece!! It is absolutely incredible, to say the least. I am forever grateful.
