Arlene, some of my happiest times have been at The Art Shop! Dave and I so enjoy your beautiful gallery and especially the gallery events. The framing you did for the print in our dining room is exquisite and the lamps over the two new pieces work wonders for illuminating them. We received so many wonderful tips and ideas at Andy's restoration seminar. Thank you for making The Art Shop a place to enjoy and savor.
Congratulations on your anniversary and the many well-deserved awards The Art Shop has won.
Look forward to many more happy times with you and Lenny.

Chris and Staff,
Even though its been a while, I want to thank you so much for the wonderful job you did on the shadowbox of my Dad's navy items for my Mom. We all loved the picture so much. We appreciate all the work you put into it. Thanks a lot.

Lenny, I love it - great job on the framing!  Thank you again for everything!

Hello Lenny,
I hope you had a great weekend!
I wanted to convey once again my appreciation for your professionalism, attention to detail, and communication.
Also, if there is any way to extend our very sincerest gratitude to the artist, Mr. Johnson, for accommodating our wishes for the dedication, I would also be most appreciative.

Thanks,
Mark

Dear Jaqui,
We can't thank you enough for the gorgeous frame with all of our wedding invites...We look at it each day hanging in our dining room and think of our big day. Thank you so much for all the thought and care you took..
Marisa and Matt

Hi  Lenny,
 I just received the Sabzi, Cocktails in the City, and I am thrilled!!!! Thank you so very much and please thank Sabzi for me, the dedication was perfect. I am most grateful for all that you have done to make this happen for me.
Kind regards, Megan 

Hi Lenny,  

Sorry I didn't get the chance to email you yesterday. I did get my Pino, and it is beautiful. We hung it in it's place today and it looks perfect!
Thanks for all your efforts.
Melinda

Lenny,
We received the package on Monday.  It looks wonderful, thank you very much for finding it for us and getting Arvid to dedicate it for us.
Matt

Thank you Lenny, I really appreciate your help and the way you took care of my purchase. The painting was here before noon. I will be sure to come to you first for my next art purchase. You're the best!

Jim...

To each of you at The Art Shop,
I just had to say "thank you" again for all the assistance you gave me when I purchased "Angelica." The framing is outstanding! I called Andy for advice on lighting and now have "Angelica" lit up perfectly. And thanks for the input and assistance you gave me Arlene and Lenny. I look forward to my next trip to Greensboro so I can visit The Art Shop. All the best to each of you in 2011.
Sincerely,
Betty

Lenny,
Okay, so if we are ever forced to evacuate quickly, that picture will be the one thing I take with me other than my cat! It’s absolutely gorgeous and I love the frame. It’s a wow for sure and now I may have to hang it somewhere in the living room so everyone can see it.
Thanks so much for the speedy shipping.
Lorraine

Lenny

Hi Here are a few snapshots of the Something Worth Celebrating painting and our other 2 Arvids. Thanks for making it happen. You were very professional and enjoyable to work with during this purchase.Hope you have a great 2011!

Sincerely,
Kelly

Dear Lenny,

The canvas has arrived and the wait was well worth the outcome. My expectations were exceeded in every way. The canvas is beautiful, and the dedication is very special. The professionalism you showed me started with my lengthy decision making and carried through with the appraisal and even the packaging. You never met me yet I know through your actions your customer service is superb. It will be awhile before I can make another purchase but I know as I continue to grow in my art appreciation and acquisition I will work with you again.

Thank you and Best wishes!

Cynthia

Dear Andy,

To be retired recently and to try reinventing oneself is so intimidating. To find places like The Art Shop and people like you makes the whole process not only bearable but enjoyable. For what you have shared and taught, especially for the referral...Thank you.

Michael

Dear Andy,

Thank you so much for the expert job you did restoring our "sun face"! I really appreciate your service and expertise and look forward to giving you more business in the future! Sincerely,

Kathy

Lenny,

I just love my new artwork. The paintings really bring the rooms to life. Every person who visits stops in their tracks when they see them. They compliment both the art and the frames (which are perfect beacause of Jaqui's help.) Thanks for everything.

Joelle

Dear The Art Shop,
When I came to The Art Shop with our watercolor of Salisbury Cathedral, I was not sure that anything could be done to correct the large dark marks that had developed over the years from the wood backing. I was fortunate to speak to your restoration expert and she carefully explained how she could restore the painting. I was thrilled when I saw her finished work! It is impossible to detect where the problems were and we can hang this family heirloom with pride.  My husband joins me in saying, 'thank you for a wonderful restoration."
Marilyn

Hi folks,
We just picked up our son's Eagle Scout shadow box framed in time for Christmas, thanks to the wonderful efforts of Jini. Her artful vision and thoughtfulness were a real blessing on this project! This is something our son will enjoy for many years to come.
Thanks to Jini and all the professionals at the Art Shop, our favorite framing place.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all!
Janice...

Hello Lenny,
The pictures  came yesterday and are now hanging in my family room where I can see them every day.   I am very happy with the framing.  Thank you for your selection and advice.  I couldn't be more pleased.  The pictures, together, are simply gorgeous.  You guys do a great job.  Especially in bringing these two wonderful artists to your shop for a special show. I hope they were able to sell a lot.  They certainly deserve our support.
 Many thanks to all and Merry Christmas.
Juanita...

Dear Andy,

I'm beginning to feel like we are family!! You really are a thoughtful and wonderful guy and I appreciate your visit to Ft. Worth to hang our artwork. Always fun to see you and the cool corks and the beautiful box were a big bonus. Hope to see you again soon...Jan

Hi Jini,
We arrived home safe and sound from our trip to the upper pennisula in Michigan. Very tired and back to work now :(
Opened my paper up and saw The Art Shop ad....I cried. You touched my heart and honored a humble man. When I get through crying I will come pick it up. Seriously, it did make me cry. ....Exceeded my expectations (that is typical of the work that you do).
A great big hug...see you soon...Linda

Hi Lenny,

...As it turns out, we made no selection at all for now...One thing is for sure, if we decide to move on the Nesvadba piece, I PROMISE, your gallery will be our choice. The reason is that your service and very up front attitude is what won us over hands down. I do hope we can do business in the future. Thanks for all your efforts... George

We just wanted to let you know how much we appreciate you and your Gallery Director, Andy McAfee. First and foremost, the amount of professionalism and courtesy we found at The Art Shop as we selected and purchased our artwork was beyond compare. Then, you took customer service to a whole new level...Andy has been an excellent representative of your company and we could not even begin to explain how helpful he has been to us... - Mr. & Mrs. Sims

Lenny and Arlene,
The package arrived this afternoon (perhaps the very best wrapped package in the history of the world!). As always you did a magnificent job. It's really quite beautiful and striking and will be a treasure to Don, to me, and to everyone in our family.
Barbara G.

Lenny -
Lee painting delivered this evening, safe and sound. Your packing is exemplary. Stunning piece! Thanks again for a perfect transaction.

How wonderful it is to have friends like you to help us. Thank you so much for your food donation of 493 pounds that now truly is life blood to Greensboro Urban Ministry. Our need for food continues to escalate. We can never express how much we appreciate your coming to our aid and the aid of the community with your gift...Greensboro Urban Ministry

I want to express my appreciation to Jaqui for the delightful consultation she provided towards the design of the matting and framing of my two photographs. It was very important that these images be presented with the utmost professional presentation. Jaqui took the time to assist me in meeting many variables, including museum quality standards, cost efficiency and the complimentary relationship between the images, matting and framing. It is a pleasure doing business with you. - M. Peterson

J ini, Thank you for doing such a great job on the full page newspaper listing of all-county/all-area football players. It looks great! Already hanging in my office. I will be requesting your assistance in the future! Thanks again. - J. Douglas

Dear Lenny and Andy, We can't thank you enough for your parternship with the Greensboro Children's Museum! We love Eric's new piece and the bench was greatly needed in the plaza. With your help, unique pieces continue to give a personal, warm feel to the museum plus acknowledge the talent of a local artist. Thanks again. - S. Matz.

I cannot tell you how refreshing you have been. In the UK, one would never get the service you are providing. I am eternally grateful for all the info you have given me. - P. Graham

Lenny, Thank you for working with me on the Guinther frame and the Pino. Your help is greatly appreciated. I enjoy your gallery and all the super and special friends that work there.- Marcy

Dear Lenny....   You are a MAN of your WORD!    My Pino book arrived by and I've already soaked up the first "scan thru"...and now literally EATING the text!  Oh My.....I am so pleased to have this wonderful book in my library! ... Pino is a "Master" of the human form....and how pleased I am to be on earth at this time to appreciate his work.   Thanks for your expediency, you certainly cheered my mood.....now my cold doesn't seem nearly as aggravating!   My best to you and your staff. - Tina

Jaqui, It was so fun doing business with you. I never would have thought I could work with someone on the other coast to be so successful with what I was hoping to find. Thanks for everything...Mary Lou
