" HI.....YOUR WORK IS AWESOME-FANTASTIC-UNREAL !!! WHAT A TALENT YOU HAVE....regards, carol"

"Hi I was just admiring your doll. What a beautiful Barbie! Looking at the original #1 that is for sale now(on ebay)...I would say you do a much nicer job and it has been re-touched you can tell by looking and yours is just flawless"

"No question, just would like to comment! Your doll is outstanding! Truly BEAUTIFUL!"

"Your work is perfection. I just can`t get over this #1 head.  It`s amazing! You actually only used a tiny paint brush to do the eyebrows and the eyes ?  The eyebrows look factory stenciled so I thought you may have used some type of stencil instrument or something. You are awesome !"

" I`m floored ! She is FABULOUS ! You could have a part-time career transforming ho-hum Barbie's into knock-outs! I love her!!!"

"Hello, I would like to thank you so much for the very professional, BEAUTIFUL repaint and restoration you did with my dolls! I LOVE them! The repaint, looks so much like the original # 1 and # 2 Barbies, it is so unbelievable.Your close attention to each and every detail as to my request, were fully met, with total perfection! Your artistic ability is such an amazing gift! I feel truly honored to own two beautiful dolls that was recreated to perfection by you! My friend and I were so fortunate to have found you! I know we can trust and depend on you for any restorations on our dolls in the furure! We are so happy to have found you!  Many thanks again!"
