I give my strongest recommendation for Jorge as an artist and muralist. We hired Jorge to paint a…read morelarge octopus mural (approx. 12 ft x 40 ft) across 2 walls of garage and we are BLOWN AWAY by the results! The process from conceiving the artwork, to trading draft sketches back and forth, to the actual execution exceeded our expectations. The quality and attention to detail on this large mural is extraordinary (see close up photo for details). This artwork brought a personal and unique new aspect to our home - and made out outdoor space so much more amazing to enjoy. If you are looking for a muralist to personalize your space, you must give Jorge a call!

We were looking for a local company to create and paint a mural for our gym. From our initial…read moreinquiry to the final product, we had a great experience from start to finish. We first got in touch with Bree, who was very helpful and informative. Once she captured some information from us, she transferred us over to Jorge, who went above and beyond in all areas. Jorge was easy to communicate with and constantly kept us updated throughout the mural project. He was extremely organized and professional. He made sure that we had a finished product that fit exactly what we were looking for. His work is insanely awesome and it would be hard to believe that it was all done by hand if you did not see him do it in-person. For future murals and artwork, we will definitely be returning to Koichi Arts!

I particularly enjoy her many captures of nature and the calming effect of the environment. Lisa, like her art has a radiant personality and is truly a joy to be around.

I only recently met Lisa through my wife Kimmy and I must say Kimmy has very good taste in people…read more My mother was an accomplished artist herself and I think Lisa shows real talent. She uses mainly Acrylic Paint and a knife to paint and has a gift for perspective, color, and balance. I was especially impressed by her subtle use of blue in a small painting of birches, which really pops out at you almost like 3D. I know too how difficult painting water can be and she tackled that nicely in a recent boat painting. Again I was both surprised and pleased by her use of color here. I am getting ready to publish a new book of poetry and hoping that I will be able to talk Lisa into doing some painting that will capture the mood of my work! Keep your eye on this young lady! I know that I am!
