"The portrait was amazing!!!  Rich's family was overjoyed as were the rest of us who came to know him.  The quality of the work you did was second to none.  Thank you for taking the time and putting forth the obvious effort to complete the day for us and provide us with something very special."
Sincerely, Jamie Hart

"Not a day goes by that I do not look at, and enjoy this portrait. This was a once in a life time expense that I would endure, and have found it to be worth every penny spent. There is not a single picture hanging in my house that I enjoy as much as I do this one. Again, after a year of enjoyment, I want to thank you for a wonderful family keep sake."
Sincerely,
Denise C. Canter

"We can not tell you how much we LOVE the portraits of Madison!  As you said, they are more beautiful in person.  Thank you for helping us to make this a most special Christmas gift and hopefully, we will have several more in the near future to order. You are the BEST deal around...that's for sure and you make it so easy. Thanks again, Jerry.  Merry Christmas to you and yours."
Judy Martelli

"I do not have enough adjectives in my vocabulary to tell you how wonderful, fabulous, perfect the portrait of our kids is.  I do not recall ever being so moved and crying so much for joy. Thank you for helping make this a fabulous fifty for me."
Sincerely, Amy Makson

Marie believes each person’s life is the ultimate canvas on which they create through their daily experience. This personal philosophy is the reason she finds creating portraits for clients so personally satisfying.  She understands all too well that each time a client entrusts her with the immense responsibility inherent in each commissioned portrait, that each represents an important memory, an irreplaceable snap shot in time for that individual. When you add her passionate desire to create the best work she can, to experience honed over time, what results are works that satisfy both client and artist.

The painting she chose to reflect here, is a prime example of this philosophy.  It is a painting done from a photo of a young girl and her Dad taken at Marie's wedding. This photo was taken in 2000 and for the Dad not only reminds him of the wedding of his good friends, but also of a very special moment shared by himself and his young daughter.

Marie now works full time as a portrait artist, serving the greater Phoenix area.
