What People Are Saying About Us!

  • MJ is fantastic. From helping select the right framing materials, to asking all of the right questions to determine where a piece will hang, and what type of wall material it will be mounted on, she knows her stuff. Her scope of expertise is broad and so helpful.
    Alison L., High River, AB

  • You've made something that's been sitting in my closet for a very long time, very special. (Rhea had a postcard from 1883 picturing her grandfather, as a baby, on a boat, immigrating from Scotland)

  • MJ is very knowledgeable and professional. I had her collaborate with a graphic designer Karon Argue and they created a masterpiece for a gift I am giving. I could have ordered it from the USA, but wanted to deal locally and it definitely was the best decision to do so. Such an awesome job done by local talent! Definitely recommend Art Effects for your artwork needs.
