Originally from Washington State, now living in Alaska. Married for 25 years with two young adult children, one daughter and one son. Interested in local politics for community improvement and pursuit of alternative energy resources in Alaska. Eventually, I'll try talking friends into buying land and forming a compound of "middle-agers" living together like an extended family in the Pacific Northwest (central or eastern WA or OR) or in adjoining condos together right downtown Seattle or Portland!
What I like most about Novica:
Distinctive, handmade gifts. Lovely, fun items for self and home. More profit directly to the artists/craftspeople, and able to risk purchasing online because i can return something that doesn't work without the artist losing income (so far, haven't needed to though!).
6 testimonials written and 6 Novica artists purchased from.
Testimonial for Gliseria Soto
The delivery of my handpainted mirror was very fast. It arrived in perfect condition, and it is beautiful. It really adds a lot to my entryway wall--color, interest, and beauty. I will definitely buy from Ms. Soto again. I am pleased to be buying more directly from the artist. This was a happy first ordering experience from Novica, too. Thank you! Barbara
Testimonial for Edgar Aguirre Gomez
I apologize for taking so long from the time of my purchase to post this testimonial, but I moved and am only now back to Novica. The painting of Santa Bárbara arrived in perfect condition. I had it stretched and framed and it looks lovely on my wall. I really like your painting style and wish I could afford many more, especially some of your larger paintings, but I would need a Huge house and it would look like a museum! Thanks again
Testimonial for Jamras Thapinta
Dear Jamras Thapinta, I ordered two spirit houses from you as gifts for two of my dearest friends. Both wrote to me how beautiful and well made the houses are, and they have set them out in their front rooms. I only wish you shipped to Alaska USA so I could have one too! Thank you for your special work.
Testimonial for Juan Soto Palomino
The "Latin Charm" statuette is wonderful. It is a great addition to my collection, cheering my mood every time I look at it. The detail created by Mr. Palomino is delightful. It arrived in perfect condition. Thank you, Barbara
Testimonial for Sueli Marques
Wow! This is a beautiful painting. In fact, when I picked it up from the framing shop, another customer offered to buy it from me! Nope, it is hanging in a can't miss it spot in my own house. It arrived in great condition and quickly. I really love your interpretation of these women. Thank you.
Testimonial for Desiderio Moreyra
Mr. Moreyra's painting, 'Life in the Trees' is beautiful. I hung it where I can see it often throughout my day because it is such a lovely painting, creating a feeling of peace and tranquility. I am especially pleased that it was already framed, as it is a hassle getting paintings stretched and framed after their arrival. The painting arrived surprisingly swiftly and in perfect condition. Thank you, Barbara
