Recent Testimonials

Here are just a few of the many kind comments I have received from my clients over the years when travelling across the UK hand painting wall murals. I have also included feedback from some of the people who have attended my Mural Workshop. Mural Paintings We’re all absolutely delighted with the design you painted for us. From start to finish your service has been brilliant, I would certainly use your expertise if we need anything similar in the future and would recommend you to others without hesitation. Steve & Shazli, Japanese Tree Mural April 2017 Stunning piece of artwork, lovely to work with you on this project, thanks for all the hard work you put into the project. Phil Kingsley, Blossom Tree Mural March 2017 Rose Brennan Activities Manager, Park Springs Care Home February 2017 "Joanna has produced the most wonderful bright, cheerful and detailed murals which have incorporated all the ideas and requests from our residents. The transformation has been incredible, the staff, residents and families are all amazed, and have said what a difference this is going to make to their lives. No longer is it a dark, long and boring corridor, instead we have a stunning, bright and interesting street which makes you smile every time you walk down it. Joanna’s design style, dedication and eye for detail are brilliant." Amanda Jackson, Acting Headteacher, Green Haworth Primary School January 2017 "Joanna has been exceptionally professional, calm and focused despite being in a busy school entrance. The finished mural is vibrant, painted to an exceptionally high standard and it has transformed the first impression of our school. I am very pleased we chose Joanna, the mural is excellent value for money and we would be more than happy to recommend Joanna to other schools." Fiona Forster, Owner Safari MK Soft Play Centre, Milton Keynes 2016 We came to Joanna with a vague idea of what we wanted about developing artwork for our large soft play centre. Her enthusiasm, imagination and attention to detail gave a fresh focus to the project and brought it to life. The results are truly stunning and continue to get comments from our customers on a daily basis. Not only is the quality of Joanna's work fantastic but her project management skills and organisation to deliver all the various murals we wanted were second to none. Finally, Joanna was a pleasure to work with from start to finish and we missed her once she had gone! Nimisha Mistry, Cherry Blossom Mural, London, December 2016 Joanna was great in bringing my ideas to life and following my vision! The cherry blossom looks perfect, just the way I had imagined it (thanks to Joanna) I definitely recommend Joanna, you won't be disappointed (and she is great company). Kelly & Steve Chaloner , Personalised Princesses Mural, Warrington, August 2016 Joanna is fantastic! If you are looking for somebody to do you a mural, look no further! From the initial emails right the way through to our finished design she was just great, the passion she has for what she does is evident and her talent is just incredible. A fairly challenging ask, we'd asked for Joanna to draw and paint our daughters, to look like them but as Disney princesses... challenge accepted, mission accomplished and we are thrilled with the end result! Also, with me being the picky thing that I am, I added to the load along the way and Joanna luckily had the time to paint onto a bed and another wall for us too, nothing ever seemed to be too much trouble for her. If you are thinking about having a mural done I absolutely recommend Joanna, aside from her being so good (and a lovely person) the actual experience of having a mural done and seeing your idea become a reality really is very special! The Marshall Family, Toy Story Mural, Liverpool, April 2016 From start to finish a personal, professional service. Joanna is a specialist in understanding what you are after and creating a master piece out of nothing. The preparation she undertakes with you ensures nothing is left to chance. Overall a pleasure to have in your home and it was a magical experience to watch our design take shape. Thanks Joanna - we will see you again for our next collaboration Abigail Bootle – Bouncing Tigger Mural – Manchester – March 2016 Joanna has helped us so much with making our baby's nursery something very special. We couldn't be more pleased with the outcome. Joanna was so helpful and really has captured our vision.

Farah Hussain, Mummy & baby Giraffe Mural, Chester, January 2015 Joanna did a fantastic job of the feature wall. I wanted a nice mummy giraffe me) and baby giraffe (my son) looking at each other. I also wanted a monkey (my space monkey son) and a parrot (my son loves parrots). Jo captured exactly what I wanted.
