"I really enjoy the 'One to Twenty' mural Ms. Whitaker painted in my preschool classroon. The detail really gets my students counting and provides lots of opportunity for discussion and learning. Plus, it's fun to see the kids looking and asking questions about what's 'happening' on the wall."

"When my daughter turned 12, I wanted to do something special for her room, which was rather plain. I took her out shopping and while we were gone I had Ms. Whitaker come and hand-paint a huge Tinker Bell over her bed (my daughter's favorite fairy of all time!). When we came home, she was so excited to see her room and called all her friends to come over and see. Everyone now thinks she has the coolest room."

"My grandmother hand made a quilt for my son when he was little with airplanes on it. When he turned 5, I wanted to liven up his room without doing a major repainting. I had Janice hand-paint a replica of one of the airplanes on his wall with his initials on the tail to make it his very own. He was thrilled. The colors matched the quilt perfectly and it made his room come to life."

"We needed a Statue of Liberty for our second grade reader's theatre. Ms. Whitaker hand painted a n eight-foot replica for our classroom that delighted the kids and made their learning experience more rich and memorable."

"Our school's bathroom walls were white and boring, and Ms. Whitaker made them a fun place that puts smiles on our childrens' faces."
