Dear Julie,
Suzi and I really appreciate the beautiful gorilla baby burning! You did a fantastic job, and I know all our visitors will love it. Hopefully we will see you next year at SEWE! Have a great year!
Sincerely, Jack Hanna

Julie,
I just wanted you to know how genuinely elated my father was when he saw the woodburning piece of Lilly. He is a man of few words and he is just in awe of his present. He could not get over how you captured her eyes and her face. You are so unbelievable talented in your attention to detail. My family is just overjoyed with the gift you have given us in your beautiful rendition of our baby girl Lilly. We already have it mounted and on display for all to see in our game room.

I cannot wait until I need you again. I will definitely be spreading the word, not like you need it because your talent speaks for itself. Thank you and Happy New Year! Amy Martin

Julie,
I thank you with all my heart. Your portrait of Zeke is now my most prized possession. When I look at him, I will feel his love - and yours as well.
Fondly, Vicki Olson

Julie,
Thank you so much for the great job you did on Maddie and Scout's portrait. Trey absolutely loved it-he was speechless at first and finally got out "Who did this?" He is so impressed and shows it to everyone who comes in the house.

Hi Julie,
The piece arrived yesterday and it is truly wonderful! You are quite the artist! Andy and I are so pleased. At this moment it sits on its stand in my office. I will be traveling back and forth with it for awhile until it finds its home in our "Magnolia Family Room." Since I spend most of my time at work, I wanted it here to enjoy for a few days. It is truly a treasure. Thank you so much for capturing the very essence of my Magnolia.

We decided last week to take Magnolia to Nationals in Louisville in October. I will let you know how we do. Again, thank you so much for the wonderful piece!
With Kindest Regards,
Jane

Julie,
your wonderful package arrived about 30 minutes before I was supposed to leave for work. But, I couldn't wait. I opened it and it's gorgeous. I have it hanging in my trophy room over Kedar's National Champion and Reserve Champion statues. I will probably need to raise it a little higher (there was a small clock there before), but it looks great. The room is a muted earthy green color that enhances the wood tones. Iva

Julie,
I must confess that I could not get a really good look at the urn next morning and saw it; it is even more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. Julie, the detail is amazing! I have to tell you that I am very, very happy with this photo, even if you could have done better with another. It's just that this one really shows who she was. Every time I look at it, I smile, just as she is smiling. However, I'm glad you talked me out of the one where she is sleeping. I agree that that picture would not have been as appropriate and did not evoke the same emotions as this one does.

You are such a gifted artist and I am so happy to be a recipient of your work. I cannot think of a better way to honor my beautiful girl. She deserves only the best. I held it in my hands the whole way up to Helen, and back, and could not take my eyes off of it. Now you will just HAVE to come visit us in New Orleans . I promise you, our offer is not hollow - we mean it! I feel blessed to have had the opportunity to know you.
Love, Rebecca, Urbain, and Violet

Hi Julie!
I just wanted to let you know that the Lorax box arrived safely today. It's absolutely gorgeous! My husband was amazed that it was actually burned and not a photo process of some sort. Thanks so much for this - I couldn't be happier with the result. If you don't mind, I'd like to drop your business card off at my vet's office for anyone who might be interested in what you do. I'll keep an eye on your website to see what's in progress and let you know if I take a picture of the Brits that I'd like to have immortalized. Thanks again! Valerie

WOW!! Julie
those trophy boxes are incredible!! They are so beautiful. They are far superior to anything I had envisioned. Can't wait to see them in person! Thank you so much for all your hard work.
Joanne

Julie,
Unbelievable! You definitely have the gift. I'm amazed at how realistic your work is compared to the actual pictures. Stay the course...Keep going! Rick

Julie: What a great site - you've shared so much - a true artist and animal lover. Jyotsna

IT ARRIVED!!! When the box arrived, I was like a kid on Christmas morning trying to open the box. Even though I knew what it looked like, I had to see it. It is safe and sound in my hands and I must say it is even more beautiful in person!
Take care,
Polly

Hi Julie,
I received the absolutely stunning plate from the CWVC featuring Zoe's image. I just started crying my eyes out in front of everyone as soon as I saw it. I cannot believe how beautiful and realistic it is - the subtle shadings, the coat texture, the sparkle in her eyes, the draping of her ear flaps - we're just in awe. Rob and I are amazed at how absolutely perfect the pyrographic image is in every detail - it looks exactly like our beloved Zoe. Thank you for creating a treasure that we will cherish forever.

Dear Julie,
I wanted you to know that the box arrived safely. To say that it is exquisite, and to say that I LOVE it, would both be serious understatements!! It is truly incredible. Please don't ever stop doing what you are doing----each piece you do reflects the joy and pleasure you feel in unleashing your God-given talent. Thus, with each piece you create, you are giving the gift of a part of yourself--- and THAT is the true treasure, which is beyond price.......God bless you, Julie, for your talent and your warm and caring nature.
Humbly,
Besa

Julie,
This sounds so queer, but I have tears streaming down my face! You have completely captured Sam! I feel like it's 3-d and it's him! Julie, you have done a phenomenal job. That portrait is absolutely stellar and let me tell you it takes a lot to impress me and I am absolutely blown away. Your talent will sell itself - I won't even need to do a sales job - one look at Sam's portrait and people will be falling all over themselves! Great work,
Christine
