HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY WONDERFUL LITTLEST SISTER AMANDA!
LOVE YOU LOTS AND HOPE YOU ENJOY YOUR SPECIAL DAY! -Love, Ann-Marie
"The portrait arrived yesterday, and it is gorgeous. The timing couldn't have
been better. Eric ships out today, and we were able to present it to them
together last night. They were so touched! They absolutely love the portrait.
Erica kept looking at it and noticing different things about it that she loves.
They both were tickled by the tennis balls in the background. Toward the end of
the evening, Erica said, "You know, it's so wonderful how she was able to show
him as a senior dog with his white face, yet at the same time she managed to
capture his youthful spirit." She absolutely loves that about it, and she was
very impressed."

"My husband lost his beloved Ming after a long fight with cancer...
Ann-Marie came to our house and talked to my husband about Ming,
looked at many pictures and listened to countless stories...she did
so patiently and with kindness...the painting that Ann-Marie returned
to us not only looks exactly like him, it truly captured his lovable spirit."

What a wonderful experience it was, working with you on Rascal's portrait!
I have to say that from start to finish the whole process was fun and exciting.
You are very professional but you also have a wonderful way with animals.
Rascal was very happy to meet you and "pose" for your camera.
You took time to get to know Rascal and understand his personality. You captured
that and more in the portrait. My husband was elated when he saw it! He never
misses an opportunity to pet Rascal's nose on the portrait, always remarking on
how real he looks. I would recommend you to any of my customers and friends in a
heartbeat! You are truly amazing!

For 15 years, I got to wake up to this face and be
loved unconditionally. Thanks to you, Ann-Marie, and the kind gesture of one of
the most wonderful friends in the world, somehow being able to see that face
every day still brings me comfort. Thank you so much.

Ann-Marie’s wonderful drawing of Blue hangs on our
office wall where it is admired by our guests as well as us. It was a great
gift idea for my husband and Ann-Marie worked so hard to make it look so real.
Blue also loved her visits and knew that she is “an animal person.” Thanks
so much for this heirloom.

You did such a great job capturing Bodie’s
personality- sweet and zany all at once! He just loved having you
fawn all over him. You have an incredible artistic talent. I get
compliments on his picture whenever someone visits, and many think
that it is a photograph at first. It is like we can almost feel his
soft fur and wet nose looking it. We will treasure this picture always,
capturing our Bodie in a moment of time.

The pet portrait of Mitsy really brought her to life.

This was a gorgeous Christmas gift my daughter-in-law drew for me.
Zoe and Tanner are best friends. Ann-Marie really captured their personalities.
Whenever they hang out together they literally look - just like that!
