Art by Allison

Allison is beyond Amazing! She designed an incredible spa like vision for a very small bathroom. From picking out grout color to fixtures she has an incredible eye that she is able to customize to suit clients individualized taste. I have never worked with someone so caring, talented, energetic, and patient.

I first hired Allison to paint a bedroom. I wanted wide stripes and butterflies on the walls that looked as though they were etched ion glass. Allison and I clicked immediately. She understood what I wanted and gave me suggestions, ALL of which I liked. I am attaching pictures of the rooms. This will be number one. When we finished the first project, I was so pleased with it that I hired her to do a large master bedroom. I have always liked Indian things (meaning native American), and we went to work changing a pink room that I had rag-rolled several years before by adding other colors to attain the resulting shade. I found Pendfleton blankets that I liked and those blankets had the colors we decided to use. Since I did not want to spend the money on new shades, she painted a door purple to tie the shades to the rest of the things in the room. I have indians and horses on one wall, and artifacts on the others. It might not be to everyone’s taste, but it is definitely mine. Allison also painted over a canvas that I had—the colors and subject matter just fit the room perfectly. Again, her suggestions just made my vision for this room a reality. She used my idea but she was the mastermind that put it together. This is number two. Now for number three—the third and last bedroom. I think this is the prettiest and most inviting. I had the carpet and the coverlets which are reversible to bright pink, but I will never reverse them. The only thing I didn’t have were the mirrors and the couch. I purchased the two mirrors because I just could not make up my mind between them, even though they are so different. It was Allison’s idea to paint the one wall purple in order to tie in the purple area rug between the beds. I love it that she found a way to use the two mirrors. She also found the roller shades for me and it was love at first sight. My husband and I found the ceiling light; although it hangs a little low, we feel it is “right” for this room. I have raised and shown dogs for over 40 years and I had many pictures that I was going to donate as trophies. Allison spied them in the closet and created a picture gallery on one of the walls. I was thrilled with this for two reasons: 1) my old friends were going to stay with me; and 2) I didn’t have to spend any money Last but not least, she suggested ways to arrange the furniture that I loved but had never thought of. It doesn’t sound like much, but in my eyes her arrangements made a huge difference in the finished look of all the rooms. It was a delight to work with Allison. Her creativity and imagination worked wonders for me and it was inspiring to know that my ideas were worth while and that she could interpret them the way she did. I have worked with decorators before, but none quite like Allison and NEVER before with such beautiful and satisfying results. She was there when she said she would be and she was finished when she said she would be. None of the people with whom I had worked with previously ever made worthwhile suggestions; they were salesmen/women who called themselves interior decorators. This one was the Real Thing!!!! I am recommending her to all my friends, as well as to anyone who reads this review. She was/is a breath of spring after a long, hard and cold winter.
