Kudos, Clones, and What Not

Happy Good Friday!!

I wanted to share a couple of cool things with you. First off is an email from our friend Charlie Thiel of Charlie Thiel Photography - he writes:

"To the management and staff of Pixel2Canvas: You have once again proven to me why I use your company. My client was surprised that I use a California based company for my canvas prints when I am based in Charleston, SC. The reason is you guys make it work, every time. Katie and Roxanne helped pull together a large order for me, and do it in very short order. They took my jumbled notes and images and made it all come together in a coherent order. In addition, the fact that my $2000.00 order was just over $1400.00 with Roxanne's birthday discount, I am a very happy man! Both Katie and Roxanne were extremely helpful, but also really enjoyable to talk to. What a great company, what great people!"

Thanks Charlie! He had some LARGE canvases for a trade show booth in North Carolina - this is a furntiture trade show - he promised to send images after the show.

Now - for The Clones!

Linda Hawkins is AMAZING. Her photography and PS skills are off the charts! She recently had her work shown at a gallery in Rhode Island - here is her post on a forum we belong to:

"The clones have entered the gallery! LOL! As most of you know, four of my pieces, including three from my clone/multiplicity were selected to be shown in the SENE Film, Music and Arts Festival in Providence RI. When I arrived at the gallery the gallery people couldn't wait to get their hands on them! LOL! They love them! They were calling them deep, emotional, spiritual and...my favorite....poetic! Wow! And I was worried they'd think they were wacky and psycho! SO, they are there, the doors opened at 1:00 today and I will not see them until Saturday night at the Artist Reception in the gallery. That is when I will see them on the walls! Very exciting stuff! Tonight is the opening night gala and it's being held in a movie studio here and there will be a lot of big film makers and producers there including Michael Corrente. One of my Haven Brothers shots from the NBC Today Show will be hanging at that event! My work is for sale and the gallery will handle everything...they don't even take a cut! I hope I sell something! But then my hubby said, what if you walk into a restaurant and there on the wall is the picture of you naked in the bathroom....yikes! Never thought about that! LOL! This is RI, that IS a possibility! LOL! Maybe one of the out of staters will buy it..then I won't have to worry! They are expecting people coming in from all over for this event!"

(Note - I didn't include the bathroom one she's talking about - sorry!) You'll have to check her website for that one!

Here are her images...

This last one, Mad Tea Partyis our FAVORITE - it's getting printed BIG on canvas for her! You can check out her work on her site, Linda Hawkins Photography.
