"We have been very happy with the beautiful watercolour home paintings that Jackie has painted for our buyer and seller real estate clients. They are amazed at the accuracy, vibrant colours and attention to detail. The personalization makes Jackie's artwork extra special. For us , it's a wonderful way to show our appreciation to our clients, and to honour and recognize what might be their very first home, a cherished family home of many decades or simply the place they called Home. Thank you Jackie!"

I got Jackie to do pictures of my sons, with me and also a wedding one. All of them are absolutely beautiful. One of my sons passed on and she was incredibly sensitive and created art that I will treasure always. I highly recommend her and I guarantee you won't be disappointed!
