I had originally seen Kyoko’s work when visiting Princeton and stopping by a coffee shop, where I saw some samples of her pet portraits and testimonials from other clients.
With my sister’s wedding coming up, I figured that a pet portrait of both hers and her fiance’s childhood dogs when growing up would be a perfect wedding gift.
The idea of having a portion of the proceeds for the painting being contributed to animal welfare organizations was also attractive, considering that my sister and her fiance are both animal lovers. I reached out to Kyoko to propose the idea of painting a portrait of both dogs together in one painting, and she was very receptive to this idea and worked with a quick turnaround time to make sure it was done before the wedding.
Not only this, but she was extremely responsive and very punctual in keeping me up to date with the status of the piece, payments, shipping, etc.
Ultimately, the painting that Kyoko produced was amazing, and was an extremely memorable wedding gift for both my sister and her fiance. I would highly recommend Kyoko for any of her work!
