Local Artists in Detroit

“I stumbled upon Dave's work and sent an email in regards to a custom project. He not only responded quickly, he was very courteous and helped me explain to him what I was looking for. He designed a perfect piece of art that will be handed down for a few generations, I am sure. I would recommend him based on: attention to detail, the care shown in his art, and his customer service skills. If you are looking for a unique piece of art, look no further!”

“Our Studio has worked with Art Leaders Gallery on a large number of projects over the years. We have benefited from extensive expertise, wonderful service, and reliable outcomes. Our clients enjoy the talent and professionalism that Bonnie, the owner, always brings to the table, which has made Art Leaders Gallery our "go to" source for framing and fine art.”

“Mary is a consummate professional. An incredibly talented artist, she always follows through, whether it's calling when she says she will, or showing up on time. She's easy to work with and is an absolute delight as a person. Her prices are fair and her work ethic is top notch. I would highly recommend her to anyone.”

“I hired Metal Mosaics Art to create a piece as a gift and I provided my own image. The artist was very helpful and easy to work with. I also thought the communication throughout the process was excellent. The Mosaic turned out even better than I had hoped and was a very well received gift! I would highly recommend Metal Mosaics Art to anyone and hope to have more pieces created for myself in the future. The finished product looks so professional and expensive but yet the prices are really an affordable way to display photos in an unexpected way. I was very satisfied!”

“The Art of Custom Framing is my exclusive gallery in the Detroit area! With a 15 year+ relationship with the gallery director and an amazing staff, I always find the perfect piece every time for my clients. From fine art and prints to custom orders, they go above and beyond to provide a beautiful product and installation.”

“Beyond April's many artist talents, she is a conscientious, customer service driven business lady. Her art will enhance any environment, be it your home or business! I have work on may corporate commisions with April and evey customer was satified.”

“I love deb's work!! I have 4 murals and 2faux finish. I receive compliments every time people see them she does such amazing work down to the very small details. Also her prices are very reasonable she is truly gifted”

“I highly recommend Gregg Bugala for all artistic painting/finishing that needs to be done, on furniture or any wall or woodwork. I had Gregg do extensive work in my home 2 separate times in 2013-2014, including custom work on a fireplace, doors, walls, and furniture. He was in my home for weeks doing the work. I trust him implicitly. His work is exquisite. Painting like he does is an art, requiring attention to detail not easily found.”

“As accent tiles for a master bath shower, I sought the lustrous matte glazes of the sort that Pewabic Pottery in Detroit is known for, but I wanted to work more closely with an artist -- I mean, how many do-overs of our master bath do I get in one lifetime? (Husband says this is it.) Two other reasons I chose Potawatomi: the palette of glazes and the originality of the artist's decorative tiles (which I didn't use but very much liked) and of the architectural moldings, which I did use. A couple things I know about tile-making are that it's very much an organic product, and that surprises (good and not-so-good) can happen in the kiln. Owner and lead designer Kelly Schwanitz went through several iterations to get the exact blue-green shade that matched her glaze sample and my expectations. Getting it right was like a quest for her, and I loved being part of it. One more thing: For the moldings, she anticipated perfectly the sizes that would be needed for the trapezoid-shaped and for blending with the field tiles and provided numerous extra tiles in case the actual fit was different.”

“Patrice’s work have a sense of serenity reinforced by the colors chosen in each painting. What sets Patrice’s art apart as one of a kind is in my opinion her technique as the colors interact to each other so delicately that her paintings have a very special appearance that is so attractive to the viewers attention, therefore making her art a very strong statement especially the larger in size. They are great focal point in a room and emphasize and or contrast with the décor used. She is very reliable and takes her art very seriously, I know she does what ever it takes to make sure the clients are satisfied with her work.”
