“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 white] colour scheme, but mostly because of what it represents. Her’s represents healing and mine redemption because of what our Saviour did for the two of us. Our bond of friendship runs eternally deep and I am always smiling when I move away from [this piece].”

“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.”

"I look at your paintings and it's so, so hard to say which is my favorite because there is something in each one that forces out a variety of emotions." ­
