Finally timed it right yesterday and swung down while she had a 25% off sale going on. Picked up a few items for holiday gifts. Seriously one of the sweetest people you can meet and have been admiring her work when I first saw a piece at Red Cedar and Sage. Pop in when you have a chance!

Brooke has managed to transform her art into SO many forms! In my brief stroll through her gallery I saw full-size paintings, clever grid prints, cards and more. For my own purchase, I had noticed a Valentine's Day card she had posted on the gallery Facebook page. After reaching out, Brooke went the extra mile with customer service - she was so kind in showing me all the design options for this specific card. The one I picked was perfect for the occasion! I was so pleased with the whole experience. Can't wait to explore the gallery again soon.

Srujana made my graduation complete! I had an idea to honor my relatives in a unique way on my…read moregraduation cap, but I knew I needed some artistic help. I found Menakshee Designs on Yelp and scheduled a call with Srujana. Srujana couldn't have been nicer and agreed to help me even though I only gave her a week's notice. She worked diligently throughout the few days we had to get my cap finished for graduation. In the end, my cap looked beautiful and I received many compliments. My family and extended family loved the design and we plan to have my cap framed now after Srujana's beautiful work. I highly recommend Srujana and plan to use her services again in the future.

For my wedding gift to my in-laws, I had an interesting idea: since a part of my wife's family is…read morefrom the Indian state of Kerala, I wanted to give them something meaningful, and get a calligraphy print of my mother-in-law's favorite Bible verse written in Malayalam (the primary language spoken in Kerala). However, I ended up frustrated after reaching out to various calligraphers with no success. I ran into roadblock after roadblock, as Malayalam is not an incredibly widespread language and most calligraphers A. don't take commissions in languages that use different scripts than English, or B. are willing to try it, but for a much higher price and with no guarantee that the finished product will turn out as expected. After months of searching, I was referred to Menakshee Designs by another calligrapher who had been unable to take the commission, but said that Srujana may be able to help me. A few weeks later, I had two completed prints that were miles above anything I thought I would be able to have done. Srujana did such an amazing job. The customer service and attention to detail was astounding throughout the whole process, from ensuring that the commission was completed, shipped out, and received on time (even when it was on short notice) to making thoughtful suggestions like including a specific type of flower significant in Indian weddings - something that I wouldn't have even considered! Through every step of the way, she was communicative and offered me options so that she was sure the work was exactly what I wanted. My in-laws (and grand-in-laws!) were thrilled when I gave them the finished product, and they have gotten nothing but compliments on the framed prints that they now have hung up as a centerpiece in their living room. This was six months ago, so this review is much later than it should have been (the months after a wedding can be hectic!), but I wanted to do my part to support and draw attention to this amazing artist. I would not hesitate to urge anyone who is looking for amazing customer service and outstanding results to give Menakshee Designs your business, and I will be doing the same to every member of my wife's large family once wedding season starts in a few months!! Thank you for everything, Srujana - I'm looking forward to having the opportunity to work with you again.

I thought it might just be "I have these 2 ideas, I hope it turns out well" but Matt made every effort to make sure I was happy before starting, along the way, and finishing the piece. I could not be more happy with Two Thangs, the work is AMAZING, bright, funny, and extremely well done. Additionally Matt has excellent customer service skills and really made me feel comfortable with my order and my ideas. Thanks!

I chatted with him while he fixed my bike and all of the prices were transparent with no hidden cost. What I love about recycled cycles is the fact that I can learn as I go and at my own pace.

My friend and I like to do experiences together for our birthday instead of gifts so we decided to do calligraphy this year and I knew Caitlin's class would be perfect.

You are given a nib, holder and ink to bring home and use in the class along with paper and sheet that has guidelines and an instructional book which has info about materials and where to buy them.
