"Fabulous" doesn't begin to describe Vince's artwork. He has a wonderful sense of humor. He is easy to work with and is a great listener. He tweaked the work when asked, made excellent suggestions, and was extremely efficient. Working with Vince was a wonderful experience. I'm proud of the final product.
