Kristen was exceptional to work with.. I love the piece she created for us.

I was fortunate to find Kristen's while searching for metal artists on the internet. After viewing her portfolio, i knew at once i wanted her to create a custom piece for my husband's Christmas gift.

Five years ago, my husband almost died in a quad accident. Although he recovered, I held on to his crutches to commemorate the miracle of a life saved. I had always planned to have the crutches made into a piece of art as a reminder.

Kristen was exceptional to work with. She took the crutches and my scattered ideas and created something special. She communicated with me throughout the entire process and included me in the creative decisions. I love the piece she created for us. Who knew that crutches could be so beautiful?

She added value with her expertise, artistry and thoughtful questions as the commission process unfolded.

"Art Consulting Services has commissioned Kristen Hoard several times to create various commissioned pieces for our clients. She has always worked extremely hard to collaborate with our vision and the client's needs, and has added value with her expertise, artistry and thoughtful questions as the commission process unfolded. We have been delighted with every piece she has created for us and also enjoy watching her personal body of work change and evolve as well!"

...meticulously executed.

All the projects came in on time, on Budget & meticulously executed.

Needless to say that I was quite pleased with the interactions that we were engaged in for work done by Ms. Hoard.

Kristen is easy to work with, is very creative and responds well to ideas

“When we were renovating our backyard and swimming pool I wanted to add a fire sculpture as focal point. so I started searching the internet for artists who were creating such sculptures. I found the website of Kristen Hoard and liked her work including the LED artwork. An email to her followed by several phone conversation resulted in my commissioning her to do a fire sculpture with LED lights. The result was absolutely beautiful. Kristen is easy to work with, is very creative and responds well to ideas and the location where the artwork eventually gets placed. Even though our sculpture is pretty tall, it could be shipped and installed by my handymen without difficulties."

Kristen not only follows through she DELIVERS!

"as the owner of an art gallery I quickly realized which of the artists I showcased would be able to follow through with a commission request. Kristen not only follows through she DELIVERS! She truly listens to the needs/wants of a client and gives them all they hoped for and more. She keeps the excitement building throughout the construction of the art piece by including the buyer in the process. She is timely, professional and FUN!"

She saw everything through flawlessly from the beginning designs to complete installation

"Working with Kristen Hoard has been a true pleasure. I love art and I have passionate ideas. But when I decided I wanted original artwork as the focus of my bathroom remodel, I could only get as far as knowing the feeling that I wanted but not how to execute it. I have several small pieces of Kristen's in my home and garden and I knew I loved her use of color and metal and fire. Kristen really listened to me and brought my elementary ideas to amazing fruition. She turned my small bathroom into an absolute spa. Her designs are amazing. And she saw everything through flawlessly from the beginning designs to complete installation. And the only surprises were how beautiful everything came out – no shocks about budget or missed deadlines".

The service I received was absolutely first class.

I recently ordered two pieces of 'metal art work' from Kristen's website. The service I received was absolutely first class. Kristen is a talented artist who listens to her clients and delivers exactly what is required. I am truly delighted with my art work, the detail, colouring and overall 'look and finish' is exceptional. I would definitely recommend to my friends and family. I love both pieces, and will be ordering again, for sure. Kristenhoard.com is a professional organisation, offering excellent quality and bespoke items at great value for money.

Thank you very much indeed!
