"Darryl and Lesley
Just a quick note to say how delighted we are with "Its On Me"
I have hung it and sat and looked at the artwork while the song" Its on Me " was playing and can see where some the inspiration comes from.
The military drum beat and the sound of rapid arms fire and cataclysmic crescenedo's -its all there ! thanks very much."

Thank you"
Yoshihiro, JAPAN, 5th October, 2004
"Darryl Hi
I recently gave the commissioned artwork you made and shipped for me, to my wife as a Christmas present. As it had to be transported to Massachusetts and then back to Virginia (about 500 miles by car, each way) for our family gathering and because you had packed it so well, I never opened it before Christmas day. It looks amazing and my wife was speechless. She was amazed that we were able to get all of it done basically by email and she absolutely loved the artwork.
Thanks again and have a great holiday"
Kevin, USA, 16th September, 2004
