Ryeka and I absolutely love the portrait. The likeness is perfect and the whacky background is just what we had in mind. Thank you so much for doing such a fantastic job.

I have fallen in love with the portrait of Mimi and Karl. I can't take my eyes off it and I know they will love it too. I just can't wait to give them this on their wedding day.

"The portrait of my mother is so beautiful I had my bedroom light on all night so I could look at it. If my house was on fire it would be the only thing I would save - apart from the children of course!"

"The portrait of my wife, Saskia and Kyle is so life-like it's unreal. It was the best Christmas present ever. This is great because Shirley has put this picture of the three of them together from three separate photos as it was a secret Christmas present. I have shown four of my friends the portrait and all of them want to commission one".

"Thank you so much Shirley, you have done a wonderful job of the portrait of Hannah, I can't wait for our guests to see it at Christmas, you have brought her back to life. To say you have completed this picture with only a tiny black and white picture from 1906 and you have produced a masterpiece like this is amazing",

The picture of my father, is unbelievable. Every time I look at it, the memories come flooding back. I knew it was going to be good but this is off the scale. I can't even begin to understand how you have managed to capture him like this. Thank you so much for doing such an outstanding job.

I couldn't wait to give the portrait to Lee on Father's Day. I was so pleased with it, I knew he would be delighted and I had to give him it as soon as he got home. It was really emotional for both of us.

Shirley, I can't tell you how happy I am with the portrait of Mum and Dad. I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart. This means so much to me I really can't tell you. You have done a fabulous job and captured the essence of both of them to perfection.

The charcoal drawing of our son is spot on. It's been a massive comfort to me to be able to look up and see him on the wall in such detail. It's just like looking at his face.
