“You are gifted by God. It is the Spirit that radiates from you and enlightens you to use your paintbrushes with such sensitivity and awareness of the subjects you paint. Every detail is so accurate a representation of the subject matter. It is as if you were standing with us in Vermont, looking out on the mountains and the town of Weston. Our hands, our very demeanor is who we are. It awes us to realize how much you enter our beings and reflect back to us who we are... We ask God to grant you many years to continue your work. You bring great satisfaction to others.”

“Just a short note to thank you for the fine work you did on the portrait . . . I am very pleased with it and received several comments from those in attendance at the NACDS meeting in Palm Springs relative to its quality. It was nice 'working' with you in this regard, Bill, and I appreciate your talent and cooperation. Words cannot express our appreciation for your artistic talent. Our portrait is so beautiful and we are so anxious to have it hung in our home. The reaction from everyone who saw it was the warmth that you were able to portray.”

“You captured the likeness of both of us. You even captured our personalities… When they unveiled the two portraits last evening, there was a hush among the audience. Then several hundred people surrounded the portraits for an even closer look. Certainly they had a full appreciation of your God-given talent. Thank you for your dedication and professionalism.”

“We just received the portrait which you painted for us through American Greetings. It is fabulous! With such fine details, it is often hard to realize that this is a painting, not a picture. So few people have this much talent — but God chose you! If we ever [again] need a wonderful portrait artist, we will certainly give you a call.”

“Thanks for your beautiful painting of my beautiful wife. I was surprised and delighted with the likeness. It is hanging in our dining room where it has received justified praise and inquiries about the artist… Thanks again for your excellent work.”

“Lots of smiling faces when your portraits were presented. [We were] more than pleased and we thank you for your wonderful work… You did such a wonderful job of removing wrinkles. We appreciate your work, great skill, and thank you again.”

“I can't thank you enough for the unbelievable portrait of our family and for all your hard work… Your talent is incredible, but what's more incredible is you and how much care you put into the portrait… Thank you for everything.”

“Thank you for the absolutely exquisite portrait. You have outdone yourself! Your attention to detail is incredible. The hands, hair, jewelery, clothes, scenery, everything is perfect! Words cannot describe our satisfaction and delight. We are thrilled and honored to hang our portrait in our home. A simple thank you does not even begin to tell you how much we appreciate your time, talent, and friendship.”

"The portrait of Sherry and myself, plus our two dogs, is absolutely fantastic. Everyone at our meeting thought it was one of the finest works you have done and I thoroughly agree with them… You have a great talent and we certainly appreciate being able to have such a wonderful painting.”
