"Oh
my, oh my, dear Heidi! After waiting for so long I was able
to open your carton. Yesterday was Christmas Day so my mother
and I were able to meet 'Margaret
Anne' for the first time. Your work is wonderful, absolutely
beautiful. I'm so impressed. My 88 year old mother looked
at her and started to cry. It was such an emotional time
and I can't thank you enough for the care and trouble you
went to in making her perfect in every detail. I just love
her, and so does my mother - we all do. Over the last year
Michael forwarded emails of her evolution, but still I was
overcome seeing her sitting before my eyes. You've done a
fantastic job. It's more than ever expected. Throughout the
day I had to keep going back to have another look. Michael
took lots of photos as I unpacked the box and there she was!
That first look took my breath away. This person was real
once and died so tragically young, now she will live forever
thanks to your talent and Michael's interest in the first
place.
For now she has been placed a coffee table in front of a low window looking
out onto our garden. The table is a slab of bush wood smoothed to a silken-touch.
There she sits with her melancholy thoughts - I think the expression is perfect
given her history. It's hard to believe this is the result from one faded old
photo. It's just brilliant and I thank-you so much.
Now I'm going to have another look - probably my 100th!."

" I
just opened the box with the bust
of my mom and I love
it. You
captured her so perfectly that I just have to have it
done life-size also... I will take the
small bronze one to
my beach house. I
can't tell you how impressed I am with what you do with
your hands - it is miraculous - absolutely unbelievable.
It is just as if my mom were in the room with me... Thank
you so much..."

Dear Heidi,
The sculptures arrived yesterday, and we are so pleased. They turned out
beautifully, and are an amazing likeness of my daughter.
Thank you so much for creating such beautiful artwork that
I know we'll treasure for years. You're an amazing artist.
Thanks again,
Heidi for a job well done. The sculptures way exceeded my
expectations, and I couldn't be happier.

I just returned
from vacation and got to see the bust. I absolutely love
it. Sometimes online purchases turn out to be disappointing
but this is even better in person. Your packing job was
the best I've seen and so speedy!! Thanks so
much, I'll really treasure it.
Yours, Arlene Lombardo,

Heidi was a dream to work
with and did a fabulous job creating my
site. No matter
how many changes and suggestions I sent her way, she
cheerfully worked with me to give me just what I wanted.
She has infinite patients and had my site up and running
in just a couple of weeks. I highly recommend her.

LOVE IT, GREAT WORK, simply beautiful. I think is
great to have this result. I feel very comfortable
that you
allowed me to give my opinions and my point of views .
Most of the time other artists they just do whatever
they want to do and you can see the results in their busts.

Heidi, just wanted to let
you know the sculpture (The
Bather) arrived today in
perfect condition. She is absolutely fabulous. I
love it that she is solid and that there is a considerable
weight to the whole piece. I'll cherish it forever. Thanks
again Heidi,

Just wanted to let you know
that George LOVES the Rookie
bust and thinks it's beautiful. He
has mentioned it to me several times, and this is really
quite unlike him to "gush" over anything. He
has also let some of his fellow Ridgeback owner friends
know about it so hopefully you can sell the rest of
the series. Now, I'm excited to find something
else to be sculpted and bronzed. I really can't
thank you enough for all your hard work, patience,
and talent!! Hats off...

Tazz arrived
on Thursday, and we couldn't be happier. She is wonderful,
thank you so very, very much.

I am one of the most difficult
people to please that I know. Ask my wife. Rarely does
anything impress me because I either know I can do
it or I know I can get close enough to it that its
no big deal. I have been trying to get someone to make
a miniature head for me for about 3 years. You are
very, very good, and the others I have received are
like previous efforts, totally unacceptable. But you
are the only one who when I opened
the box I went "wow".

Dear Heidi:
Wow! When the package arrived in perfect condition
today, I was so excited ... but that didn't compare to
the excitement that I felt once I opened the wooden box
and got my first glimpse of the
bust! You did an outstanding job ... even better that I could've
hoped for! And please tell Mr. Maiers that the wooden base
is beautifully crafted. (In fact, I also like the wooden box
he made so much, I am saving it to use over and over for hauling
fragile items). I know that you worked very hard on this artwork,
and I want to assure you that I appreciate your work, and that the
bust will always have a prominent place at either my home or office
throughout my life. Thank you for accepting my commission,
and thank you for the professional and courteous service that you
provided throughout this project. I look forward to recommending
you to others who are seeking a sculptor. Thank you again
and God bless!
Your friend,

My wife
and I are both thrilled with Sara. We'll have to find
just the right place for her to show her off.
