Testimonial from Angeline

A few months after my mother passed away in early 2021, I commissioned Margaret Sloan to paint a portrait of her from a photograph that I thought had a good sense of her personality and warmth.

Margaret communicated frequently and clearly throughout the process and asked some excellent questions - not only about details like eye color and background colors but about what she liked to be called and what she was like as a person. We had several check-ins while the pencil drawing was completed and then a couple more after the painting began. Margaret was open to some small changes that I asked for when the painting was nearly completed, and mailed it promptly and with excellent protective packaging. I am absolutely delighted with the result and can't put it much better than...it just feels like that's my mother looking back at me, about to say something silly and funny that will make us all laugh one more time.
