Local Artists in Oakwood Park

“Payne Creations made my backsplash tile for my kitchen and it was extraordinary. I know that I have a one-of-a-kind backsplash that no one else has. Very professional. Very courteous. Very talented.”

“I have had the pleasure of collaborating with Stew on numerous design projects for some of my clients and also for myself. He always brings his excitement and unbelievable creativity to the table plus he is just fun to work with!”

“I have bought several paintings from Carolyn. Her artwork is gorgeous and reasonably priced. She delivers promptly and great to deal with I will be buying more of her paintings in the future. Gayle Estabrooks St. Louis, Missouri”

“This lady has talent! I have seen her art progress over the years and her creativity gets more and more refined with every piece she creates. We have several pieces of her art, as well as photography and sculpture throughout our home, which was featured in KC Magazine. Her art stands out in a crowd with bold colors and abstract expression. I would recommend her to any professional for staging purposes or for a beautiful piece of unique art in the home. It's only a matter of time before her art explodes in the KC scene.”

“I found Linda on Etsy. I had an Obi that I wanted her to create accent pillows from for a large sectional sofa in our tv room. I sent her photos of the sofa, room, and Obi. She selected all of the coordinating fabrics on her own. I received the pillows in a timely manner and they are beautiful. We use the room almost every day and the pillows still look brand new. Linda was professional, kept me updated along the way, and a pleasure to work with. I will definitely utilize her services again!”

“Having met with Mark on a regular basis to discuss our businesses, and having worked with him on several occasions, I have formulated an accurate assessment of him and of his company. HPS is a company that I have recommended to several clients when a whole house energy retro-fit is needed. While other commodity insulators seem content to bid the job from the driveway or the comfort of someone's kitchen, Mark is up crawling around in the attic, looking for trouble spots, moving insulation around, documenting the issues and devising real solutions for people. He is the only person in the marketplace that I have heard use the words "guaranteed results". His thorough nature can be attributed to the results that they consistently get after their work is complete. The insulation and retro-fit market has been cheapened by contractors who think they can get away with doing poor work because no one will ever notice it or take the time to crawl around and verify. Mark does the verification for you by documenting every detail of the project from start to finish, so if you are wondering what got done, you can just look at the pictures. Then, when your utility bill comes, you get to see the real result... lower bills, forever. His diligence in implementing new and cutting edge products and methods to save Owner's money for the life of the building is an enviable attribute, one that I do not see in the marketplace. For this reason, the bar has been set and HPS is at the top of the list if you want long term, verifiable, consistent energy savings for your home or commercial space.”

“KCNC; i.e., Rick Williams has completed three projects for me. One was a kitchen cabinet replacement in Leawood, Kansas and the other two are fine furniture projects. Rick has photos of all three projects available for review. The cabinet project was removal of old, "stock" cabinets with custom designed and construction solid oak cabinets. He met with us to define the project, developed the arrangement and style characteristics for the cabinets, built all the units, and provided installation services. His design was very beneficial as we "fit" the new cabinets in a small galley kitchen. The construction and finish was exceptional, better than any commercial cabinets we looked at, and the installation was completed efficiently and smoothly. Overall, an outstanding job. The furniture projects really gave Rick an opportunity to express his outstanding design skills. One was a mahogany writing desk and accompanying chair. He worked very closely with me on the design. The table is a prized possession over 20 years after it was built. The second project is a solid cherry gate leg, drop leaf table. The top is constructed of a piece I received from my father, making Rick's efforts to create a piece that is a treasured family heirloom. His design, as shown on pictures Rick has available, display the unique leg design, the custom brass hinges designed and built for the gate leg mechanism, and outstanding finish work make this a piece that will be in our family for many years to come. A skilled craftsman what sets Rick apart is his exceptional design skill and ability to create projects that fit each client's needs and desires. If you want a unique piece built of exceptional quality I highly recommend Rick Williams of KCNC.”
