COMISSIONED WORK, COLLABORATIONS
Simone has been a dream to work with. I have greatly appreciated her infinite patience and great eye for visuals. My experience has been that Simone is gifted at grasping her customers’ styles and wishes swiftly as well as tailormaking the whole experience to suit her client… What I have enjoyed especially while working with Simone, is the creative process which we have shared – warm, inspiring and with a hint of magic in the air. The collaboration has led to something greater than I expected, following the brainstorming between us. Because of that I would extend a special recommendation for creative souls who enjoy sharing the process of creation as well as getting a great product. Simone Howard is the artist for you’
