Jima 'Dear Jan, you have done a wonderful portrayal of our lovely cat, Jima. You captured the soft, glistening texture of her coat, and the intelligence of the Abyssinian cat'. Carl K., Salt Lake City, UT

Juba 'When I saw the painting I was blown away and breathless. It brought tears to my eyes. You really captured her sweet spirit and her love for pinecones. I was completely overwhelmed by your work and it way surpassed my expectations. I can't wait to having you work on my labs and to see my husbands expression on Christmas morning when he opens this painting'. Laura B., Franktown, CO

Stella, Hannah & Dinah 'Hi Jan, Received the painting. . .cannot believe how you captured each dogs eyes and personality!!! I cried all the way home, you captured Hannah as though she is going to pop out of the picture! Ralph and I feel she has been brought back to us. . .we will treasure this forever! Thank you so much!!!' Barb & Ralph L., Santa Rosa, CA

Taffy & Rex 'Dearest Jan, I pulled a really great funny on my husband. He got home & we were talking & then I said 'Oh, honey, I have to show you something.' But I was serious & he thought it was pertaining to an issue with a family member & I, of course, let him think that.I unveiled the painting & his jaw dropped like mine did at your house. All he could say was 'your parents are going to freak out & they are also going to cry'. He thought it was as perfect as I do.

Jan, I have to be honest, I had a talk with myself to be prepared if it wasn't what I wished it to be. Perhaps not capturing the personality. But, oh my God, it is perfect'. Diana T., Park City, UT

Lynx 'Love is the impression I had when I first saw Jan Henderson's art work, you know the feeling when it goes right to the core of your art heart and speaks to you. It infused a sense of knowing that I would forever be changed. I now own and display many of her incredible works in my home. Love is the right word.' Greg Nelson, Holladay, UT

Divine Proportion 'It was just what I wanted when I talked to Jan on the style. I'm a multi painting buyer from Jan.' Lance Dean, Coppell, TX

Paradise 'Last Summer, my wife and I were sitting in the back yard having a glass of wine and congratulating each other on the completion of our new storage shed/work shop. One of us said, wouldn't that wall look great with a nautical mural? The next thing you know we called Jan, worked out the details, and presto chango... we had a fantastic mural.

The mural has become the centerpiece of our backyard parties. Our neighbors even bring their friends to the back yard to show it off. Thanks, Jan - we love you and your work. JR & Sue Reynolds, Sugarhouse, UT

Angus 'She captured the unique and individual personality of each of my pets. It brought tears to my eyes when I saw my two cats that had recently passed away and she had brought them back to life. All eight paintings are a wonderful addition to my home.' Amanda T. & Steven P. SLC, UT
