“The likeness of the children is impressive .The sculpture will be a family treasure for years to come”.
Michaela and Gregory  Hess

Claire really took the time not only to create their likeness but also to capture their personalities and characters. She did this by spending quality time with the children observing their expressions and characters, combined with several photo sessions. In the end we were absolutely thrilled with the final result of a lasting, timeless and faithfully accurate memory of the appearance and personality of our two children which we shall have forever".
