Local Artists in Portland

“I have worked with Karen and Shaun for 20 years, they are creative, highly professional and exceptional at their craft. They can come up with answers and ideas for any complicated application. Clients love them and I trust them completely and refer them without hesitation. Their understanding of color, texture and nuance makes my job so much easier as a designer to get the desired finished product for our clients.”

“A rare combination of art, function, creative, honest. Qualities hard to find in this day and age. Aztec has produced several pieces of furniture and fountains for me both in my office and home. If I had a nickel for every time someone compliments and asks about the work,,,,,,,,well I'd have a lot of nickels”

“I could not be happier with my experience with Christine at William Morris Tile. I should say up front that we had such a great business relationship that I now consider her a personal friend, albeit one I have not yet met in person! I first contacted her about our kitchen backsplash project. We have a Victorian house and I was looking for period-appropriate tiles, and came across her William DeMorgan dragon, part of her mythical beast collection. We now have quite a number of her dragons and mythical beast tiles it in our kitchen. The backsplash is an amazing conversation piece, because they're not only beautiful, high quality tiles, but they're each really interesting as well. People who come over always comment and choose favorites. It's fun, and it suits the house and our personalities. While we were doing the project, I contacted her repeatedly about grout colors, sealant brands, her opinions on field tile--you name it--and she was always friendly and professional and truly invested in the project coming out as beautifully as possible. And it really is beautiful. You can see photos and read about our project here: http://lemongloria.blogspot.com/2015/07/and-i-still-cant-get-nick-to-call-me.html We have future renovations planned, and have already bought more of her tile (Fantastical Birds--gorgeous!) to use on one of the fireplaces. And she and I are in conversation about tile designs for our master bathroom. She's very knowledgeable and really interested in the tiles she creates, and she has a sense of whimsy, which I really appreciate.”

“Terry's talent level is off the charts. She has created the most amazing rooms for my interior design clients. All my gorgeous furniture and window treatments take a back seat to her work. She creates the part that takes a room from "wow" to speechless! Her skill level is at the very top of her field. While she could easily have an healthy attitude to go with her talent, she is just the opposite. She is incredibly kind and professional to work with. I recommend her 200% if you are looking for the best wall artist on the West Coast! Her work is truly stunning!”

“Thank you for all you did to make my home more attractive. I would hire you any time I need additional remodeling. I am most pleased about the following and would be happy to recommend you to any potential clients: 1. You listen well to the desires to your client; 2. You are indeed and artist and your aesthetic is outstanding; 3. You work hard to accommodate time lines; 4. You have a strong sense of color and textures.”

“Janet came over and we discussed what I was looking for in my daughter's room. She sent me some pencil sketches, and they were beautiful. She finished the mural earlier than the deadline, and even gave me a discount because it didn't take her as long. The finished project was awesome!”

“Kathryn’s designs are brilliant and unique. Her sense of style, courageous use of color, and sense of balance contribute to each of her abilities and skills from designing fabrics to web design to framed works of art and product design. Each of her projects comes in on time and she is a delight to work with!”

“Great design incorporates a number of finishes and textures. Lorie has an amazing eye and commitment to her craft, and she is a great asset for our client projects. Her attention to detail is outstanding - she offers superior quality with a fine artist’s approach. It is amazing the number of mediums Lori can work: wall and ceilings, antiqued mirrors, furniture, metals and even commissioned artwork on canvas. Her possibilities are only limited by the creative minds on the project.”

“Hilary Winfield produces beautiful, ethereal abstract art. The quality is top notch. She is a very reliable and professional artist. You will not be disappointed.”

“I am the proud owner of eight Candace Primack originals. My house became a home with her high-quality, gorgeous, meaningful, and soul-giving art. I have bought her art "off the shelf" and I have twice commissioned her to paint something amazing for a specific space. She is an absolute delight to work with, and I can recommend her highly, and without reservation.”
