Testimonials

"Kate Merriman is a natural born artist. To be more specific I would have to say that she is one of the most gifted and intelligent fine art painters I have ever had the chance to work with. She is amazingly good and fast and honest. This all comes through - especially in her paintings of animals. "

Gary Stutler, Artist & Instructor for Napa Valley College, April 2007

"From a simple photograph, Kate was able to create a vivid work of art that captured the true personality and style of my dog. Kate infused her personal experience with and impressions of my dog into the painting, and added colors that communicated joy and energy. I love it!”

Laurie Davis, Rebel's "Mom" (see painting, right) | March 2007

“I love Kate's work. She is a very talented artist, and I count myself lucky to have some of her work hanging on my walls. She brings a fresh approach to her subjects that makes her work very interesting and fun.”

Susan Linden | March 2007

“Kate's paintings are incredible. She has a great eye for color, and really captures the personality of her furry subjects beautifully. On top of that, her prices are ridiculously low (for now, anyway). I highly recommend her, and I would do so even if she wasn't my sister!!”
