“Gretchen has done numerous portraits of my horses over a lot of years and her attention to detail, uncanny ability to capture the spirit and personality of the partners involved is simply second to none in my experience. Beyond that, there has to be a fantastic degree of talent or training that allows her images to rival photography in detail and likeness. I highly recommend her on frequent occasions to many of my friends. In fact her work appears in my bestselling book, “Unbridled Passion”. ”

“We found Gretchen Almy Designs through a dear friend. Few years ago, we rescued Sammy, a silky terrier through the Humane Society of Tampa Bay. Sammy has become a member of our family, he gives so much love and happiness, we wanted to have an artistic impression of his wonderful nature. And Gretchen did it!. She captured the essence of our little guy. Sammy’s portrait is simply perfect. We are so happy with Gretchen’s work, it is exactly what we were hoping for and more. The details are exquisite. Thank you so much Gretchen. “
