What Collectors Say

  • Before I even attempt to humbly rate any of the purchases I made, I have to say that Denali is an amazing person! She is very committed to making sure that as many people as possible are able to afford a piece of artwork to call their own! She is friendly, easy to communicate with and down to earth! I have been looking for paintings of some of my favorite birds (I grew up between the ocean and Everglades), but everything in the stores didn’t look quite right. I saw a post about “Glowing Breeze”. It took my breath away, but I didn’t see it for sale on the site. I simply asked and was told I could buy the original or a print! I’m now on a little mission to start to decorate my bare family room with my beach memories! The eyes and details of this beautiful Blue Heron has started things off, everyone adores how real it seems! Thank you so very much Denali! ❤️

  • My mom adore Cardinals. Who doesn’t? I believe Denali is the best bird painter I’ve seen! The details of this little bird is even better in person! (I also have a Chick a Dee from her) The beautiful handmade paper makes it extra special and the eyes are very real! I could easily get addicted to collecting these! I recommend framing these with a “floating frame” or a bit larger frame that shows the fancy edges of the paper! I have not decided on a frame yet….or else I’d share. 🪺

  • I first saw this unbelievably realistic Pelican in a post, where Denali said it was hanging in her own home. I had seen that she could make a print of anything she had painted. So I asked if she could make a print of it, to go along with the Blue Heron. Communication with her is so easy! She said absolutely, gave me sizes and prices, now I get to enjoy the piercing eyes of this extremely detailed Pelican! The print is just fabulous; it’s able to hang next to the heron original without anyone thinking about it being a print! I highly recommend asking about anything you might be interested in!

  • Absolutely my favorite is the frogs but the are so lifelike that I think they are marvelous! My family all have told me the rainbow trout reminds them of my dad and my husband! Which thought the first time I saw it! I have been bragging on them and showed my family and friends! You are so talented! Keep it up♥️🐸
