This painting is acrylic painted on an antique wooden desktop. I was commissioned to create this painting by a patron of a local cafe. The patron wanted to express their gratitude to the cafe owners for their hard work in running an all Vegan Cafe. I was honored to do the painting and was given the artistic license to just paint what I felt. It was accepted happily by the cafe owners and now is prominently displayed above a fireplace in their front entry. Surprisingly the palette that I chose for the painting actually matched really well with the decor in the cafe. I always say that the things I create are not mine. They are created for the owner.

For Steampunk Airship Custom Drawing/PaintingChristine was great to work with. She took my crazy ideas and made them real (or at least as real as a cat driving an airship can be). Great communication throughout the project. Highly recommended.
Becky Kuehn
For Becky's Cake ToppersChristina was GREAT! She stepped up when another maker didn't respond to my request and sent pictures and kept me updated through the whole process. I would definitely work with her again!

For An octopus with a chainsaw and guns ProjectI am super happy with the final project. Christina was very professional, sent me numerous updates and photos while progressing with the project. As soon as she was finished she sent it right out along with a tracking number. I received the pacakge in just a couple days. If I was to need another painting I would absolutely work with her again, as well as recommending anyone else to work with her as well.
Peter Dickens

Beverly Eidmann
For Karate God BusaganashiChristina from Sophia's Room was amazing. She kept me abreast of each step of the project she was working on for my husbands special birthday gift. It was the first time I truly found him to be speechless as she took the idea from concept to finished art piece. My husband loves his Busagnashi and is very proud to own this fine piece of art.

For Doorway/Lintel Doberman Gargoyle/GrotesqueTina could not have been any easier to work with. My wife and I are so pleased with the results, and wish we had more to ask Tina to work on for us.

For A custome painting/drawingIt was a awesome experience, my painting by Sophia's Room was a great piece of art and will be the center piece of my office. She really focused on the spirit of my concept and made a piece of art that I will be proud to show off for decades, her dedication to detail is hands down the best I have seen. I was so happy to have picked Sophia's Room to make this project. Mike H.
