Words cannot describe the joy we felt when we received the drawing you did of our precious dog Bronco. We were so sad to lose her to cancer and cried for many days. She was an important part of our family and losing her was devastating. Thanks to you and your talent we will always have a beautiful memory of her. Your drawing was a healing power for us and gives us something to look at which reminds us of better times with her. You were able to capture her at her best and because of your amazing talent transferred that moment onto paper. We will forever be grateful. Your work is phenomenal and you exceeded our expectations 100 fold. Thank you so very much for providing us with such a beautiful portrait of our dog. We will forever be grateful. On a side note - many people have seen the drawing and have commented on what wonderful talent you have of capturing a true image. Thank you very much for sharing your talent! You've changed our lives and made them a little brighter. -The Allen family

The picture Melinda drew of my daughter was amazing! I feel like she captured my daughter and who she was perfectly. A little piece of her personality shined through in the portrait. It's definitely a piece of artwork I will cherish forever! -Erica H.

I can't thank you enough for the amazing picture of my dog. It is so special and captures him so beautifully! I know it's going to make me emotional every time I look at it, but it will help me keep him in my heart. -Dena S.

Melinda drew a picture of my wife and our dog. It is the best gift both me and my wife could have ever received. Our dog has now recently passed away and this drawing means so much more to both of us now. -The Harding Family
