Very well
Description of Work: Linda repaired 2 walls in my home. One was painted in a faux Tuscan style in my kitchen. The wall edge had been damaged. The other was a mural that had been damaged when some furniture was being moved. I found her to be easy to work with, highly professional, punctual and very fairly priced. She was very interested in doing the work in a way that answered what I was looking for. However, I would not hesitate to ask for her help in a situation where I needed advice say on color or style of faux painting. This was a small job but when the need arises for painting help in the future, I would call on her again.

Linda is very professional, does a beautiful job and cleans up thoroughly when finished. She is exactly what I was looking for in a painter and I will definitely use her again when the need arises.
Description of Work: Linda helped me choose colors for my living room, hall, two bedrooms and two bathrooms. She has a great "color-sense" and was able to offer advice when I was undecided about what to do.

WOW! Linda arrived exactly at the time she promised, equipped with everything needed to complete the job. She spent some time getting to know me and my daughter, and how well our home met our needs. The colors she chose literally transformed our space. Linda also suggested what seemed to me to be minimal changes in placement of artwork and decorative objects, however these made a world of difference in improving the appearance of the space. I also implemented her suggestions regarding the exterior color of the house, which also turned out to be spectacular. During her second visit, she painted the areas we had agreed on, completing the job in a highly professional manner, including meticulous clean up. I would recommend her without reservation.
Description of Work: Linda checked out my home and suggested colors; after she selected colors, she returned to complete the painting. She also made suggestions for some quick cosmetic changes in my living room e.g. changing locations of pictures and objects.

She was really pleasant to work with. She was on time, listened to my concerns and great at picking out colors. I am pleased with the color combination I now have in these rooms. The size of the tiles that I ended up picking because of her suggestion also worked out really well in the powder room. I decided not to pursue the faux painting for the kitchen backsplash but I would definitely hire her if I were to do any faux or other special paint treatments in the future.
Description of Work: Linda helped me pick colors for my kitchen, dinette and living room. She also went with me to look at the new hardwood floors I was planning on installing. She also gave me advice on the tiles I should be using for the powder room. She also provided an estimate and samples for faux painting for the kitchen backsplash.

Linda met with us numerous times in order to narrow down the designs and colors to a final design. She came to the house to take in our personal style and took photos first. She then returned with a number of sketches and examples of paint colors and textures so that we could envision what the final product would be like. Linda is very meticulous in her work and totally thinks things through. She is very neat and clean-up conscious. Linda is college educated in art and her experience and training shine through. She looked upon the job at our home to be both fun and a challenge, as it is very contemporary. But her range is awesome, from painting plain walls, to faux finishes, to the exactness of ''fool the eye'' artwork and murals. We highly recommend her.
Description of Work: Linda did a fantastic job of decorative painting on walls around our fireplace. She also constructed a flowing ''hearth'' out of 3/4'' MDF and painted that also as part of the entire design. Just a note: Linda should also be listed under the category of ''Artwork/Murals'' as well as the two she is already listed in ...Interior Design & Decorating and Painting. She does it all.

WHILE SHE DID PROVIDE SOME IDEAS, I WAS VERY DISAPPOINTED IN THAT SHE DID NOT EVEN RESPOND TO MY SECOND REQUEST. I FEEL THAT IS CUSTOMER SERVICE 101 SO WOULD NOT RECOMMEND HER.
Description of Work: LINDA CAME TO MY HOME TO GIVE ME SOME IDEAS IN SO FAR AS COLORS IN MY KITCHEN AND LIVING ROOM. I WAS UNDECIDED AS TO WHAT I WANTED TO DO SO I KNOW IT WAS DIFFICULT FOR HER TO PROVIDE RECOMMENDATIONS, BUT I APPRECIATED HER ADVICE. ONCE I DECIDED ON WHAT I WANTED TO DO IN MY LIVING ROOM, I EMAILED HER AND ASKED HER TO COME BACK AND SHE NEVER RESPONDED.

I like Linda right away, She is very friendly and very talented, especially as a scenic artist and decorative painter. Her portfolio was awesome!! Her price was very reasonable even though she added another $50 to the estimate which I believe was because each ceiling took 3 coats!!!
Description of Work: Kitchen, utility room, bathroom walls, and ceilings were painted. We felt that Linda under-estimated how long the job would take (plus, I'm sure she wasn't expecting to have to pain the ceiling 3 times). The quality seemed a little rushed but over all, a very good job and a pleasure to work with.

LINDA IS TERRIFIC! IT TURNS OUT THAT SHE USED TO BE THE ARTISTIC DIRECTOR FOR THE MILWAUKEE REP. SHE HAS A GREAT EYE FOR COLOR AND GIVES A LOT OF IDEAS TO CONSIDER. SHE'S VERY PATIENT AND HELPED TO RESOLVE SOME IDEA DISPUTES BETWEEN MY SIGNIFICANT OTHER AND ME. ASK TO SEE EXAMPLES OF HER FAUX/DECORATIVE PAINTING; WE ARE THINKING OF HAVING HER BACK TO DO SOME DECORATIVE PAINTING ONCE THE ROOMS ARE REPAINTED. HER PRICE IS VERY FAIR.

LINDA FIRST CAME TO MY APARTMENT TO LOOK AT ALL MY FURNITURE AND RUGS AND PICKED OUT COLORS. SHE HAS SHERWIN WILLIAMS AND BENJAMIN MOORE SAMPLE COLORS WITH HER. SHE THEN CAME WITH ME TO MY NEW HOUSE AND WALKED THROUGH AND PICKED OUT MORE COLORS FOR OTHER ROOMS. I WANTED TO MAKE SURE THE COLORS IN EACH ROOM FLOWED WELL WITH OTHER COLORS. LINDA SPENT ABOUT 3 HOURS WITH ME, MAKING SURE I WAS COMFORTABLE WITH ALL THE COLOR CHOICES. I HAVE RECEIVED MANY MANY COMPLIMENTS ON THE COLOR SCHEME OF MY HOME. I COULD NOT HAVE ASKED FOR BETTER COLOR RECOMMENDATIONS. SHE ALSO GAVE US ADVICE ON HOW TO PAINT AND HOW MUCH PAINT WE WOULD NEED. MUCH BETTER THAN AN INTERIOR DESIGNER AND MUCH CHEAPER. IT WAS BY FAR THE BEST $125 I HAVE SPENT. THE COLOR SCHEME OF A HOME MAKES A HUGE DIFFERENCE. WOULD HIRE LINDA AGAIN.
