Custom Artists in West Granby

“When my kitchen was destroyed by a leak from upstairs, I had the opportunity to (finally) recreate it so that it was exactly what I wanted. I love mosaic, and I wanted to cover the entire backsplash with an original work of art. The kitchen area is quite small, and I had in mind something like a jeweled cave. We spent a long, long time looking for an artist that could produce what we wanted. We loved Cynthia Fisher's abstract mosaics, and contacted her about our job. This was the best decision we made in the entire remodeling process. We are in California and Cynthia is in Massachusetts, but this was not an issue. She guided us through the measurement process, sent photos of the work in progress so that we could provide feedback about what we liked or didn't like, and completed the work on time. Besides the artistic elements, the job was quite challenging technically--the mosaics had to fit around light switch plates and outlets, and around the edges of the cabinets. Not only did thing fit perfectly, but the mosaics are designed so that the switch plates are integral, not visually separate from the work. Installation went smoothly (it helped that Cynthia was available to talk to the installer whenever we needed to consult.) The result greatly exceeded my expectations. I got exactly what I wanted, and I love, love, love my backsplash. I give Cynthia Fisher and Big Bang Mosaics my very highest recommendation, both as an artist and as a professional. It was a joy to work with her.”

“Sandy McRae, owner and founder of Distinctive Finishes LLC has been a respected contributor and collaborator in many of my design projects. Her abilities are not restricted to any one style or period. From either spectrum of contemporary sleek to traditional murals her attention to detail is always the driving force on any commission.”

“Sandra is a pleasure to work with and an extremely talented artist. We commissioned a fireball as a surprise birthday gift and wanted it to represent all the things that brought happiness and joy to the recipient. She was able to incorporate all of those elements in the design and worked carefully to make sure it was perfect. She even made herself available for the "surprise" delivery and installation. The end result is a truly unique and functional piece of art that brings joy to all that get to spend time around the fire.”

“MJP Studios is my go-to faux painting studio. Marc and I have executed many memorable projects together-- including a sky blue lacquer ceiling for one Master Bedroom, and a gold leaf ceiling (pictured below) for another. I can rely upon MJP's team to do timely estimates and provide reliable service with a smile, which does not always come hand-in-hand with artistic talent. The piece-de-resistance, however, is the quality and craftsmanship Marc brings to the project, virtually guaranteeing an amazed and grateful client. Marc's team and his own talent elevates a project from stylish to astounding!”

“Amazing material. So unique stylistically and diverse. Love it all. Would recommend this material and studio any time. I love the range of material and quality of the work.”

“I am fortunate enough to provide my client's with a network of professional consultants, one of which is Sanchez Interiors. Whether Guillermina is working collaboratively or individually on her own design project, she is detail oriented, knowledgeable of her craft and a dedicated professional. As an artist her paintings are featured as a focal point on several of my client's projects. I am always looking forward to our next project design.”

“I highly recommend The artist Don Wunderlee. I have known Mr. Wunderlee and his artwork for 25 years. He is experienced, incredibly committed to his love of painting and dedicated to continuing to evolve as an artist. You can look back over his works and see periods of focus on a particular style. He clearly has in depth knowledge of paint on canvas and does amazing things with it. I have admired his works in galleries and exhibitions for many years and finally this past holiday season decided to purchase a large painting as a gift to my husband and myself. Doing business with Mr. Wunderlee was a pleasure. He was interested in the space where the painting was going, the colors and character of the room (our living room) and what we were drawn to in his pieces. He offered suggestions...showing me a variety of his works in keeping with what he learned of our interests and home. Then he gave us time to think over the decision. He was a real pleasure to work with ....very thoughtful, straight-forward, and honest. He is very customer respectful and genuinely looking to satisfy. The painting by Wunderlee which we now have in our home is incredible and both my husband and I, as well as our children and house guests, focus on it often in appreciation of this gifted artist. I hope to buy another piece of his art one day. They are treasures.”
