Words can quite describe how amazing our time at Artists' Attic was, but I'll try…read more My husband and I had what turned out to be a private Flow Painting session with Dot Goodwin. Besides being incredibly fun and satisfying, our session morphed into a Native American drum and card pulling experience. It was much needed therapy for both of us and I am thrilled that we'll have visual reminders of how special the evening was. We'll be back for more, for sure! P.S. Your experience doesn't have to be "woo-woo/spiritual" -- we were open to it. Make sure to go if you are too! If not, that's cool -- they'll keep it "normal" for you. ;-)

I was elated with my choice upon walking in and immediately being greeted by the baristas. I didn't catch their names but all three were wonderful and super pleasant. I had some time to burn, so I opted to try an Iced Mocha Latte with Almond Milk. Since I'm a fan of little things, I was grateful for the eco-friendly cup that it came in without the straw...neat little option for an iced beverage. To compliment the latte, I decided to give one of the blueberry scones a try and did a silent dance when on of the baristas asked if I would like to have it served with butter.... uh, yes please! The latte was REALLY GOOD, so I will definitely be back to have that again. It wasn't too busy, as it was around noon on a Saturday, so I was able to grab a table without any issue. Looking around, it's easy to make out that this cafe welcomes the hearts of all artist near and far, as there is art on the wall along with a small selection of art supplies available for purchase towards the back. According to the recent email received, they have paint events, this particular event encouraging participants to wear their favorite sports jerseys (don't worry, I did see the wall of aprons available). Go check them out and enjoy a latte for me! SYOY!

When I showed her what I had, however, she advised that she could definitely work with me and get my project started. The service I received here was outstanding. The owner is quite chatty, and I learned a great deal about their shop and the location while she worked to write up my order. I left my items and was told they would be ready on a certain date. She called me four days before the date they promised to let me know that my items were ready to be picked up. All that to say that the service, from beginning to end, is exceptional. I brought my two paintings home, and they are perfect. They're stretched exactly how we wanted them. I now know that these incredible pieces of art art properly stretched and will be well maintained for years to come. Thank you, Off the Wall, for such great work. I'll definitely be back when I need my next works framed. FYI - the gallery does more than framing. If you're interested in original visual art in many forms - not just pictures - you can't go wrong here. My next stop will likely be to purchase a couple of pieces that I'm thinking I can't live without.
