You May Have Seen Me On

You May Have Seen Me On

What is it about your pastels that make me want to jump right in Mary Poppins-style?!? These are lovely and a beautiful spot for me in these weary, hard days. Thank you for sharing the beauty and hope of your art with the world.
Kimberleigh
Valerie, you have made my heart melt!! My face hurts from smiling! I’m so thrilled... the painting is even more beautiful in person than in the pictures you sent. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Judy
Working with Valerie to help bring my vision to life was a dream. She walked me through each step and made this a truly magical experience. I’m so thankful to Valerie and will treasure these pieces for the rest of my life.
Trisha
"Your painting is at the framing shop! So excited for it to be getting framed and to hang it on my wall. Lifting up the flap, both the framer and my breath caught. It’s a stunning piece!! So happy to have this art be part of our home, where we make memories and feel at peace."
Cassandra
"There is something so romantic and endearing about your landscapes. I don’t know how to explain it but it’s like I’m seeing how I view the world on paper. I guess what I’m trying to say is that whatever you’re trying to communicate through your art, it’s coming through loud and clear!"
Nicole
To me, your work is in the vein of Monet, but is completely unique to you and I fell in love with it the moment I saw it.
