“Lyna transformed my entire bland space into something special, all with paint. But what paint! With her artist’s eye, she contributed a vision that any non-artist homeowner will truly appreciate (and artistic ones will embrace as well!). I had all off-white walls and really didn’t know what I wanted (except not all white). Lyna really looked at the space and the world-class mountain view from my windows and worked from there. From her wealth of knowledge of faux painting and finishing, and the experience from many successful projects, she made suggestions for each room that ended up being just perfect for me. We decided on a textured finish for the living area (brown glaze over gray walls), which provides an interesting, but not intrusive, backdrop to showcase the beautiful views and future art. In the same room, she created a Venetian plaster surround for the fireplace that perfectly complements the walls and floor-to-ceiling blinds. When I expressed amazement that it all came together so beautifully, she gave me that wry “look.” She was never in doubt! For the master bedroom, which is absolutely flooded with light, she helped me (patiently) with the trial and error to find the perfect blue-green that wouldn’t look too gray or too greenish, then made suggestions for darker shades of the same color to accent the alcove behind the bed and for the master bath. For a bedroom with no windows (this is a condo building), she came up with a gold-yellow Shimmerstone burnished finish complimented by a copper accent wall section that all worked together to make the dark room, well, shimmer, without being over the top. For the media room, also with no windows, she gave me the courage to try a beautiful leaf green that I truly love to see every day. Throughout it all, Lyna was a great pleasure to work with. She is very friendly and open, and quite passionate about her work. As for budget, I didn’t have one, but she helped me make decisions that keep it all reasonable. She also seems to be very organized in terms of scheduling toward a prompt completion, which meant a lot to me given that every room in my home was a work in progress at the same time. Lyna has my whole-hearted endorsement for anyone who wants more than the ordinary! NB”

“Dustin is a super talented and highly professional artist. This Christmas, he painted a stunning custom portrait that my fiancé loved! He is wonderful to work with.”

“I have been a collector of James Daniel's work for over a decade so I am a little biased... most recently, I commissioned two 8" x 10" head drawings of my wife and son. They turned out extremely well, James is very talented at portaiture. He's a real artist.”

“I used Riviere Design to hand build my interior in my home. I have seen and been on a few of his projects when He was partners with LJ and their company Architural Artisans. I have always loved his different approaches to every aspect of artistry!”

“Having known this dedicated artist and designer for more than 40 years and her work for the past 35 years, Cleaster's artistry is a direct reflection of the artist herself: thoughtful, edgy, innervating and quite remarkable. A painter, photographer, sculptor and designer. While one of those trades would be quite enough for some, Cleaster is a natural at all of them. I am proud and pleased to recommend her.”
