Hey, I'm Lance! I became a professional online portrait artist in 2006 after my family was taken from me in a tornado losing my mother, father, brother, and son. Twenty-eight lives were taken as well as all their possessions, like mine. I drew from destroyed photos their families so they could have memorial portraits of them at the funerals and for the rest of time. Since then I have made a living traveling the country doing shows and drawing from photos you email me on line. There is NO GIFT more unique that brings more tears of joy to a loved one's eyes like one of these. Nothing. I've seen it time and time again. I make it affordable to anyone who's ever wanted one of these. Paintings with half the detail of these can cost upwards of $30,000 limiting something like this from hanging in living rooms for families to the rich only. Not anymore. Here's how it works.. Simply email me your favorite picture or pictures to [email protected] with a brief description of what you would like done. The bigger and clearer the picture the better the drawing. I will start an initial sketch right away and take pictures of it and show it to you. Please email them quickly if possible, because the holidays are coming and I get busy. Once the initial sketch is done. I usually take something down on it. It's a lot of work doing the initial sketch. This varies on the cost of the drawing which we will discuss right away. Drawings are usually 175 for 9x12's 225 for 11x14's 275 for 14x17's After this process is done I continue with your art piece sending you photos on line all the way through which many people find a lot of fun. I am also friends on Facebook with almost every person I've ever drawn for as well and would like to be your friend as well if you would like that. I post them on FB at your discretion. It makes me way more legit to people as well. The Prices vary with the art because of the size of the drawing as well as the number of faces. The number of faces DOES NOT double the cost. Usually an extra face is added depending on the size from anywhere between 25 and 50, but I do deals on these more than anything, so please call me about it at .(850) 691-3976

I offer a one hour free Needs Assessment appointment. You will always work directly with me and will not be assigned to any low paid subcontractor to work with you. If your project requires additional assistance, I will bring qualified “sprucers” to help. I charge by the hour, with a minimum of 3 hours in a day.

"From my initial phone call with Jennifer to the last hanger hung on the rack things flowed smoothly and we always stayed on schedule. Even though my home was in chaos and I was in a state I never imagined myself in, Jennifer never made me feel ashamed or embarrassed. She is extremely punctual, confirms her appointments the day before and books several appointments at once so you have a schedule and know what your goals are. I have really enjoyed working with her and I greatly appreciate that she has never told me to had to buy anything to complete our project. She has always tried to use what I already have on hand. We organized my master bathroom using a dozen empty shoe boxes I had and the linen closet and under the sink cabinets never looked better."

"I contacted Hill Horticulture in early February with the intent of contracting them to do some re-landscaping work on my backyard. The work was to include addressing a drainage issue on the property to allow water trapped at the rear of the house to flow off the property instead of just pooling. I scheduled a walkthrough on February 14th with Mike Muhl with Hill Horticulture Inc. to conduct a walkthrough of the property to assess the work needed and create a scope of work for him. During this meeting, it was suggested by Mike that we shoot the grades in the backyard, instead of just eyeballing it, so that he could create a better plan to address the drainage issues. Shooting the grades would be a separate project from the work to be performed to solve the drainage issues which was why it was billed separately. It was my understanding this would contain two measurements; one would be the overall slope of the yard and the second would be the slope away from the house to make sure water was moving away from the home. Allegedly Mike Muhl and one other employee of Hill Horticulture Inc. came out sometime between March 27 and April 3rd and shot the grades. I was not present nor was anyone present other than Hill Horticulture employees. I have no way to confirm they actually shot the grades or what tools, if any, were used. We met on April 5th to go over the proposed changes to the backyard and at this time he did not have an elevation diagram or map or any elevation information for me. I was informed at the meeting that he will have them for me shortly and would email them to me. I was billed for the shooting of the grades of the backyard on April 9th, which I paid for with CC the following day. I still had not received a site plan or map or diagram that indicated the slope of the yard. On May 31 I emailed Mr. Muhl to request a copy of the grading map he was supposed to have done. He responded that he would send it but I still have not received a copy of it by June 5th. At this point, I became skeptical that he had even shot the grades. He kept giving me excuses as to why he has not sent anything out. So I gave Mike Muhl a deadline of Thursday, June 7th to get the elevations map to me. I sent an email to all the contact emails I had for Hill Horticulture informed them that if I did not receive the site elevation I paid for over two months prior I would cancel all the upcoming work I had scheduled with them. Within a matter of hours, Mike had sent me a very crudely drawn diagram of my property with some numbers on it. The drawing I was sent that supposedly showed the slope of the yard was nothing like the drawing I received for the proposed re-landscaping. Additionally, the report I was provided was nothing like what we discussed it would be. There was no explanation of his finding and what they mean in regards to the drainage issues as well as some kind of explanation as to what the numeric values meant or even what incriment of measure they were. I believe he quickly printed this out on a computer with fabricated numbered he created based on the memory of walking the property. After going back and forth with him for three days on June 8th I requested a full refund for the cost of the survey that I assert was never performed. The owner of the company responded that he would not be issuing a refund he stated “In addition to providing you the full scope of work, we also provided you with a simple rendering at no cost, which was in no way part of what we were contracted to do.” which is in direct contradiction to what Mr. Muhl and I discussed. The owner is saying that I paid him over $700 for his staff to measure the grades on my property for themselves and not provide me with any of the information or elevation drawings. What I was provided was absolutely not what I paid for and I strongly believe that Hill Horticulture, Mike Muhl, and the owner, Mr. Moreno acted in bad faith and deliberately misrepresented the services they claimed they provided."

Holiday Decorating questions, answered by experts

If you don’t have a ladder, you may be able to use a light-hanging pole. If not, you’ll have to rent a bucket lift or other machinery to reach your roof. 

The length of time shouldn’t matter much if you stick with lightweight Christmas lights and similar decorations. Those shouldn’t pose risks to your stucco. You should avoid attaching anything to your stucco that could fall because it’s too heavy, which may take part of the stucco with it. Some methods, like using double-sided tape or adhesive hooks, will naturally wear out over time and lead to falling lights, so don’t expect to leave these lights up year-round.

Aside from a professional light installation company, there are a few other pros who may be able to help you hang Christmas lights. Along with specialty holiday decorators, a handyperson near you can also hang Christmas lights (and can fix that pesky drippy sink while they’re at it). Either way, not all of these pros will offer the service, so be sure to call ahead and get multiple quotes before you hire.

Several Christmas light software options, like Vixen, LOR, xLights, Animated Lights, and Light-O-Rama, allow you to sync music to your Christmas light show right at home. All you need is a computer, the software, and a controller that connects to your laptop. Depending on your technical skills, you should choose more beginner-friendly software like Animated Lights or Vixen.

The installation duration typically ranges from a few hours to a full day, depending on the size and complexity of the design. Coordinating with professionals can help estimate more precise timelines based on your specific installation preferences.
