Norma has framed several pieces of art work for us and also has done some photo restoration. Norma is very professional and passionate about her work. I have recommended her to several customers of mine who also have been thrilled with the results of her work! She is the best!

Ellen

Norma has restored several very old family portraits and frames for me. They all came out beautifully!! I would describe Norma's work as artistic, historically appropriate and executed with great care. She has a wealth of training and experience and has been wonderful to work with!!

Vicki

Norma has a strong intuition when selecting frame, matting, finish etc appropriate for art. Moreover, she "reads" her clients well and tries to select framing that will appeal to her clients. Norma has a formidable sense of style. Each framed piece is an island of beauty. Norma has the capacity to see the client's perspective on framing art. During the last 10 years, Norma has framed or reframed all of my art. I trust her judgement implicitly in selecting materials that will maximize the intention of each artist or piece of art. Norma is driven to perfection - in furniture reconception; in framing new art; and in restoration of fine art. Framing sessions with Norma are both informative and fun. She exudes great energy.

Norma Melvin has a unique and varied artistic talent. She has painted portraits of our dogs and three of my horses. In each portrait, she has managed to capture the essence of the animal's personality along with a beautiful rendering of the animal. She also did a pen and ink drawing of our farm that has such incredible detail, I have been known to give friends a magnifying glass so that they can see the tiny N S E W on the weather vane that sits atop the barn. She is meticulous with her artwork and is not satisfied until her clients are happy with the work. For the discerning person who truly loves art, I would highly recommend Norma Melvin for her outstanding work.
