"This was my first experience commissioning art and it was so easy and I'm so happy! I met with Gina early in the process to describe my wife's taste and Gina took it from there...with just a few words Gina was able to make something that my wife absolutely loves. The process and results were both great."

“While visiting the Guelph Studio Tour, I met Gina. This meeting was a gift from Heaven. My mother had passed a couple of years before and I was now the proud owner of hundreds of crocheted doilies. While admiring Gina’s artwork, an idea came to me. Several pieces that she had done reminded me a little of the lacy doilies that my mother had once created. With Gina’s artistic talent and eye, I commissioned an artwork for my father as a gift. This artwork, Gladiolas, has been admired by almost everyone who has come into my father’s home since. Some day, Gladiolas will come to me. I, too, will find a place in my home to proudly place it, in remembrance of my mother sitting and crocheting. Many, many thanks to Gina and her special gift for bringing this art alive for us.”

"It was such a pleasure to commission Gina to create a piece of art for our home. She listened to the stories of why the elements to include were important to us, and happily included the little mementos that we gave her. The result exceeded our expectations, and by beautiful coincidence she added an element that spoke to our shared heritage. "Woven" is now a treasured piece in our collection."

“Gina’s artwork sits below my all white fabric collage of a snowflake in my very colourful house. When I look at it, I feel a calm come over me because of the colour scheme, but mostly because of what it represents...I am always smiling when I move away from it.”
