What Our Clients Say About Us

Stephanie Haboush Plunkett Chief Curator and Rockwell Center Director, Norman Rockwell Museum

It was a pleasure to speak with you after having heard glowing reviews of your conservation work, and to have observed it firsthand through generous gifts of art that have come into the Museum’s collection. These important artworks, now restored to their full luster, will be enjoyed for generations to come.

Susan Reynolds Executive Director, Milton Resnick Pat Passlof Foundation, NYC

Thank you – wow, you do work miracles. [The painting] is hanging happily at the Foundation and looks great thanks to you.

Lisa NC

Wow! Your work is beautiful! So much fun to see the transformation. I had no idea there was a blue sky under the dirt. The painting looks so much better! Thank you for all you did to make this painting look fabulous. I am truly grateful for your talent in restoring our paintings throughout the years to their former glory.

Eric Platt NYC

You not only are a true «artiste», but you are a magician as well!!! It looks fantastic! I’m stunned. Truly.

Allan M. Miller WRHI, SC

PERFECT! I love it, I love it, I LOVE IT! You are a master! I felt like a kid at Christmas as I carefully made my way through the layers of packaging. What I found was a sharpness and brilliance that were beyond my expectations. Thanks for another great job! You have been a joy to work with and your professionalism skills are unmatched. I am looking forward to getting started on our next project.

Rhonda NY

We just arrived at our house, and I immediately unwrapped my mother’s painting (which was wrapped perfectly and was perfectly protected so thank you for that also). The painting looks really great! Thank you again for doing such a thorough, careful, and lovely job on it.

Jeff and Jody Jacobs FL

I was so disappointed when I bought [the painting]. It was listless, an orphan, and you brought it back to life. When you worked your magic on it, it was greater than we ever thought it could be. You made it so spectacular. It’s just sensational. Thank you so much for all the great work throughout the years. You are the most wonderful person to deal with.

Stephen Korshak FL

We unpacked the mask, and it looks AMAZING!!! Thank you for all your hard work. You are a true professional. Thanks again for an outstanding job!

John Protos NYC

I just wanted to really commend you on your great work. Last night when I showed the paintings to my partner, he was equally appreciative. We were examining both paintings at home and there is just so much more detail and shading visible.

Robert Horvath former Board President, Norman Rockwell Museum, MA

I have been working with Jill Pratzon for about thirty years. I have been delighted with the conservation work she has done for me. In some cases, I really think it’s magic. She has gone far beyond my expectations many times in bringing a piece of art back to life. One case in point is a beautiful drawing that was in three pieces when acquired. This lovely piece is a very important part of our collection today. Ms. Pratzon, in my humble opinion, has a strong empathy with the work she does, and it shows in every piece of artwork that she has treated.

Vernon Grant, Jr. and Cindy Gibson Grant SC

We are still astounded by the amount of time and caring (and LOVE) you put into this project. Your video was amazing, describing in great detail the process from beginning to end. Thank you for helping to continue the legacy of Vernon Grant. Who would have thought that a long summer of work by an artist from New York and the input from people of Rock Hill would create a work of art to be shared by people for generations to come. Thank you, Jill, for making a dream become a reality!

Andrew Sordoni and Stanley Grand PA

We are extremely satisfied and pleased with your restoration. The result gives new life to an ailing picture, or perhaps we should say returns it to what it once was. Mr. Sordoni is looking forward to rehanging the revived painting in his collection. We have found your work to be exemplary. We appreciated the detailed analysis you provided prior to recommending a course of action. Stabilizing the canvas by relining and adding a new stretcher has solved the instability of the support and provides a solid base. The decision to remove a previous restorer’s overpainting of the background has eliminated a discordant feature that was never part of the artist’s original intent. In sum your work has been splendid.

Adrian Blanco Gallery Manager Modus Art Gallery, Paris

I am really stunned by the result, it looks perfect! Thank you for such an impressive result. I am really relieved of closing this damaged artwork issue and I am so grateful for your wonderful work.
