I wanted to cry with joy when I saw the final illustration. It is beautiful and unique, exactly what I wanted. Claudia brought my characters to life! She did an amazing job, was right on time, and eagerly made tweaks or explained why we shouldn't make a change. She is awesome and I plan to use Claudia again very soon!
