"I am always inspired by Melva's dreamy watercolors and delicate pen and ink drawings! I enjoy the spiritual aspect that I can see in Melva's paintings and how she reflects on creation. I interpret 'The Tufted Tree' to be symbolic of how the tree and bench intertwine in the same way that everything living or created by man intertwines with the Creator. The tree is symbolic of life. I also love the detailed pen and inks that she does. I admire the dainty little details of the bluebells and flowers and the serene quality that she captures of God's creation. I have also bought a few of Melva's unique vintage painted furniture pieces and enjoy how her artwork and furniture all flow so well and compliment each other. She always does such a beautiful job on choosing just the right frames and matting for her artwork as well. Melva's aesthetic style reflects her kind nature and invokes serenity, peace and beauty in everything that she creates!"

I commissioned a custom architectural pointillism piece by Melva for a special client's closing gift. They were moving out of their home of 50 years and I wanted a keepsake they could treasure forever. Melva's work was beyond my expectation, and was exquisite! I am so grateful for her attention to detail, and brilliant artistic eye! She's incredibly talented and professional. I would highly recommend her, and will definitely be doing another commissioned piece in the future.

"Melva's architectural drawings are beautiful beyond compare! She created a custom architectural drawing for me, and the depth of detail was outstanding! She worked with me every step of the way, and was so pleasant and professional! We ended up with a final product that was better than I could have dreamed of! I highly recommend her custom art services."
