Review posted 16 May 2020

Hello Valerie, Your painting arrived today and I am delighted with it! Thank-you also for the little enclosed note - truth be told, it is even better in the flesh as I can 'feel' it more. I originally was drawn to it as it reminded me almost perfectly of the bluebells in my sister's wood at her house near Lewes. Visiting my sister's when the bluebells were in bloom were very happy times and this painting brings them flooding back. Thank-you very much indeed for the speedy delivery and for packing it so very well that it arrived in the condition it was sent. I cannot really show it in situ yet, as I am having a barn conversion done, so it will have to wait a little until it finds its true home in the completed barn. Many thanks again, Isobelle

Isabelle I am so pleased you like your painting. I also love bluebells, we have a stunning valley near where I live in Cornwall which is covered in them. Good luck with your barn conversion and I hope you find the perfect spot to hang your painting. Kind regards Valerie

I love this little painting of the crashing waves that I bought from Valerie, the colour is so vibrant and lively, and I always get so many positive comments about it. It came quickly and was beautifully wrapped and packed.

Shelagh thank you for a lovely review, so pleased you like your painting. Oh for some beautiful turquoise seas again, the current storms are churning the seaweed and sand giving some very murky waters at our local beach. Valerie

I like the delicacy of the painting, very evocative of a wintry day by the sea. It was nice to have a personal card too from the artist.

I am pleased that you like your painting, I love this view across the bay, it looks different everyday especially in the winter when the sun goes down behind the headland. Thank you for your review. Valerie.

A really pretty little picture of the Camel Estuary, North Cornwall. Nicely framed. Arrived promptly and very safely packaged. My parents will love it. Many thanks

So pleased it has arrived in good time. It is also one of my favourite places, walking from Trevone bay around the headland and up the Camel estuary. Have a wonderful time celebrating your parents anniversary. Valerie

Review posted 2 Apr 2018

Valerie's artwork has just arrived and in a perfect condition. It looks really beautiful and inspiring, I can't wait to hang it on my wall :) Valerie was so kind as to include in the package a postcard with another mini-artwork by her as well as a few words for me. Thanks a lot, Valerie! I will keep it as a special treasure :)

Thank you for your kind review Nuria. So pleased you like your painting and that it arrived safely. I loved painting this waterfall, it was something a bit different from my usual style, I loved the freshness of the moss on the rocks and the splashing water. Valerie.

Thank you so much for another stunning painting of spring. I love everything about it and an extra thank you for the beautiful hand painted card!

Glad you like it, it was a brief moment of spring, full of hope for warmer days...... we have gone back to winter! I love trees and the shadows they cast, I am inspired to paint more before they burst into leaf. Thank you for your kind review Karin. Valerie.
