David was great to work with from start to finish and he captured exactly what I was looking for (especially in my pup that passed away). These a great mementos which I will treasure throughout the years. Again I highly recommend him and would have him do more paintings of beloved pets in the future. Thanks David!

I have always loved and supported this store. Today I bought…read morea book that was clearly marked $12.95 printed on the back of the book. I was charged $15.95 for the book. I wish I would have paid closer attention to the receipt when I was in the store. I tried calling but no answer and now they are closed until they move to their new location. It's only $3.00 but that's not the point. I know stores will sometimes mark up items but to do this when a price is printed on the item is not right. Lesson learned..., Check your receipt!

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.

Luckily I was able to tap into the River North Arts District while visiting Denver. This unique and vibrant neighborhood is full of urban life and totally walkable as I always love to walk a city. I was mesmerized by how many murals there were, small businesses, and eateries. It was fun checking out all the art and creator galleries, along with the craft beer and food scene. People were friendly and approachable. I enjoyed interacting with them and hearing about their process. If you love funky and unique, I highly recommend stopping here for a while and exploring.
