The Majestic Sea - Dana Point After having one of “Sunny's” beautiful ocean scenes of San Clemente, CA on our wall, I asked Sunny to create a Dana Point scene of my special place where I often sit mesmerized on the other side of the rocks (foreground of painting) and enjoy what is in store for me that day. Sunny captured one of those days for me in this remarkable painting when the tide was high and breaking majestically over the rocks. Also, in the background she captured Dana Point's prominent landmark that we fondly call the “headlands”.
She meticulously packaged my painting in a customised crate and shipped it all the way from Staffordshire to California!
Many people have admired these paintings that Sunny so lovingly created and that we proudly display.

'Niki' We opened our package this morning, and there was our beautiful Niki smiling up at us. You have captured the essence of the Samoyed, the black around the eyes, his shaggy mane and his lovely smile. You've incorporated the beach (his domain) the sea and the blue sky. The soft colours remind me of the Edinburgh Winter scene which is always pink and blue because the sun is so low in the sky. Thank you so much for him. We Love our Painting. We will now have a bit of him (and you) with us always.
'High Bridge' was commissioned as a retirement present for me by colleagues. It brings back many happy memories of my childhood walking along the river bank with my family. A much preferred gift to a tankgard or gold watch and it captures the strength of the bridge and the tranquility of the river flowing beneath.
'Rowboat' is one of my treasured possessions which I was fortunate enough to acquire at a charity auction in 1995.· This 'little boat' was my second painting by Sunny and both have been much admired by many people over the years. 
'French Corner' Sue and I would like to express a sincere thank you for the lovely painting you created to celebrate Sue's birthday. We are both delighted with the finished product that has far exceeded our expectations, It is proudly displayed in our lounge. The Scene is a view of our 16th century Weavers House set in a beautiful village in Brittany. Sunny you have captured the warmth and character of this beautiful Breton building, in particular the afternoon sunlight on the mellow stone and foliage. With your expert eye and creative brush style you have depicted a true and perfect reminder for all time of this special relaxing part of the house. Sue and I would be delighted to recommend any future commissions. With our Kind Regards and Best Wishes,
Clear Run!' Thank you so much for the wonderful painting of 'Gus' and our daughter Corinne we are all thrilled with it. You have captured his looks and character perfectly as well as their special relationship. It was the ultimate 21st present and is now proudly hanging on her bedroom wall. ·Many thanks again for such an accomplished piece of work.
'Treasues' Thank you so much for the wonderful painting of Holly and Natasha, my·little treasures on the beach! It was both a wonderful surprise and·great fun discovering the 'hidden' elements within the painting. The painting is a snapshot in time that will stay with me for all time.
