Aaron created bespoke artwork for us that celebrate our heritage in macadamias, that was created into a mural, merchandise, and expanded also into community events in Hilo as well as Honolulu to celebrate our partnership. Mauna Loa is the heritage macadamia brand from Hawai'i, and it was an honor for us to work with Aaron to give back to the community that we are both a part of. Aaron is from Hilo, and worked with the local schools that he went to- Kamehameha Schools in creating the mural. We threw a Mauna Loa x Aaron Kai community event that was extremely well received, and our staff have commented on how the mural has lifted morale at the plant, as it is such a beautiful piece that everyone sees on their way to work. Aaron is a pleasure to work with, professional, and has become a friend personally since the completion of our project. We hope to work closely with him again in the future.

We also got photos done after the wedding as thank you's for our close family that were not completed and was e-delivered within a weekend time, which was faster than what she had promised which is usually a week. Her drawings are so realistic and you can tell who each person is without the photos. She even drew people from various photos since I didn't have people together in one. Also, Mien drew a larger complimentary photo of us with our puppy that wasn't in the photo but she had incorporated it well in the photo. Mien has been great to work with and her work shines in every piece! If she is available, hire her!

Our deck is a first generation Trex and it has weathered over the last 12 years and I painted it with Deck Over 3 years and it was all falling off and just looked done in. Celeste came to our rescue with 3 books of samples of her work. We were blown away, it looked so fresh, colorful and European. We decided on a look that would work with our Mid Century home, incorporate colors from our succulents and have a touch of an aquatic theme. She and her crew worked for two weeks and made the most colorful original art piece I've ever seen. Celeste has the best ideas and her creativity knows no bounds; best to give her full reign and let her make magic. Thanks again Celeste, we will treasure our deck.

I intend to hire Celeste Korthase as long as I have a studio to shoot in! Highly recommended!

Unfortunately, it received some damage requiring a good portion of it to be restored. Carole was recommended. It was a process and took much effort but she was able to restore the mural and what she was able to do was beyond belief. Some areas so little was left, but was able to keep the mural true to form. She is an incredible artist in her own right and we are very happy she consented to do this job.

This review is long overdue. 4 years ago I remodeled my bathroom. Coming from an interior design…read morebackground, I'm extremely particular about who I have work on my home. I put a lot of time, money and creativity into the remodel, and therefore I was very particular about who I wanted to work with me on it. I hired Carole to paint back in the details on a vintage, Asian TV cabinet, that I turned into a bathroom vanity. Needless to say this wasn't an easy job. The vanity was initially orange and black, however, I had it painted a light turquoise color. When this was done, it completely concealed all of the intricate detail work underneath it. My former faux painter tried to come in and repaint all of the details back in, however, wasn't able to. The vanity has raised figures on the doors, which take a very delicate touch to get just right. There's also intricate gold fretwork around the doors as well as on the sides. When Carole came in, we sat down together, and discussed how I wanted it to look. We went over colors, different shades of gold, the overall feel of it, etc. She painted in not only on the raised figures but also elaborate artwork on the doors as well. Luckily, I had taken pictures of the cabinet prior to having it painted, so she was able to reference the previous artwork, and not just duplicate it, but make it 100 times better! It turned out to be a masterpiece! It is one of the star attractions of the remodel. Everyone who sees the bathroom is absolutely starstruck at how unique it and beautiful it is, and Carole's expert hand was an integral part of why that is. I can't recommend her enough and if you're lucky enough to have her to work in your home, you'll feel the same way. Her skills are easily on par with those of the old world masters. I hope to work with her again in the future, as I have a couple of projects in mind that I would like her to bring to life.Thanks again, Carole. You were a joy to work with.

I want to say that the quality of his art skills is comparable to someone working at Disney but maybe even better but on a smaller piece of paper. It's almost like anime/ cartoon like! Very impressed !!! Everyone turned out so cute and perfect! What an awesome party favor to take home and save forever ! So worth it. Def will want to hire Sean for an upcoming event.
