Valletta, Feb. 2017** > The designs and artwork by Studio Smithson are truly one-of-a-kind. Kristi Smithson is a true professional who has a passion for producing unique art pieces from canvas to pillows to purses to furniture and my favorite, wearable art! I've purchased leggings and a matching scarf with Kristi's amazing designs and receive compliments every time I wear her artwork. She is the best in the business and I would highly recommend her for your next project! **★★★★★ — jannross, Jan. 2017** > I love the art that this artist creates. It is all very unique and she really takes your ideas and puts it onto a canvas. **★★★★★ — Tian G., Jan. 2017** > Excellent products! The artist uses very unique pattern to create pretty products. I bought a scarf, yoga pant and matt. It is hard not to stand out with these! **★★★★★ — Marianne Lewis, Dec. 2016** > As an accessories designer, I have collaborated with Kristi Smithson to created wearable art using her canvases. I have attached pictures of a recent bespoke design. Kristi painted the canvas, which is a miniature of one of her large scale designs, and I designed and created the clutch handbag. > Kristi's ability to layer and combine color, while producing a fascinating (not chunky) texture is a real skill. In person, her paintings are mesmerizing. > It is a joy to work with a talented artist who is an absolute professional. I recommend her for design collaborations, artwork installations, custom artwork and color consultations. **★★★★★ — newhouseenvy, Dec. 2016** > Love all my purchases that I have bought from Studio Smithson and always look forward to see what she comes up with next! ❤ **★★★★★ — mlewis68, Sept. 2015** > Studio Smithson creates large scale original artwork as well as reproductions onto various textiles. I have purchased several scarves featuring Kristi's original artwork and given them as gifts and worn them myself. The designs are stunning, the item quality is excellent. Customer service is top notch. > I have seen a home in which Studio Smithson provided artwork and color consultation and the result is beautiful. **★★★★★ — Wendy Peterson, Sept. 2015** > Mrs. Smithson's scarves are an amazing piece of work. Each scarf is intimately designed with her creative approach to detail. The outcome is an extraordinary staple to add to your wardrobe. Each scarf adds the perfect accent and pulls together that "last minute" outfit. Also, I have seen Ms. Smithson's beautiful yoga mats and have yet to purchase one of these. These mats say it all.... Peace, serenity, beauty and tranquility... All that encompass what you want to achieve from your time "on the mat". Ms. Smithson is s true and innovative artist of our time! **★★★★★ — Sharon, Sept. 2015** > The designs are beautiful and original works of art. The scarves are of excellent quality and can be worn so many different ways. The color combinations used allow the scarf to match with just about anything. **★★★★★ — Abbie Sanderson, March 2015** > Studio Smithson's original designs and products are like no other. The yoga mat and scarf (both in her Lightrider design) receive so many compliments, oohs, and ahhhs! They are both of exceptional quality and beauty. **★★★★★ — katiebug00, March 2015** > I have many Studio Smithson products in my home and love them all! If you are looking to work with an artist for a unique piece of art, fabric or accent - look no further. Kristi has the ability to pull your vision with her skills together and make a product that out shines anything you've ever seen. Nothing is to big or small for her to handle! **★★★★★ — Jackie Allen, March 2015** > Kristi is a tremendous designer and artist. Her background in large project architecture definitely influences her professionalism and perfectionism. Her products (yoga mats, pillows) are a welcome addition to our home. Over the years, I have depended on a variety of her services and talents. She is creative and 100% reliable. In the last few years, Kristi has also completed digital projects (book covers and on-line designs) for us. If you hire Kristi and her Studio Smithson crew you will be hiring the best in the business. **★★★★★ — Abby Gray, March 2015** > i hired Kristi for an entry way piece to add some color and height. She was very professional and follow up way perfect. I have an amazing custom piece of artwork in my entry way!!! Will definitely use her again for my next project. ## Selected projects - [Studio Smithson ART & Designs](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/studio-smithson-art-and-designs-pj-vj~970954) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 87 - Description: Artist Kristi Smithson’s Fine ART is made in multiple mediums including resin, oil and acrylic paintings.
