“I have worked with Christianson Lee Studios for over twenty years…Besides being extremely talented, Nels and Eva and their team are always on time, a joy to work with and are always able to solve any issues that may come up onsite in creative ways. They are very accomplished in all types of finishes. Nels’ Faux Bois is amazing and their decorative mural work is outstanding. Eva also does amazing églomisé, so they are versed in any media and able to accommodate any wish I or my clients may have. I love their Chinioserie work that they have performed on some of my projects from panels to furniture finishes. They are always able to translate my concepts to perfection! Whenever I need quality decorative painting Christianson Lee are the artists I call.” – Cindy Rinfret, Rinfret, Ltd.

“Many thanks…You both did superb work painting and restoring the dome, the walls, the restoration of the upper woodwork and refreshing the marbleizing in other areas. The small spots of the dining-room ceiling were perfectly blended into the warm gray. The recanvassing and repainting of much of the back hall and the hall closet due to the moisture that seeped into the adjacent wall because of the initial leak, was excellent…Thank you very much from all of us. – Eugene R. Gaddis, William G. DeLana Archivist and Curator of the Austin House, Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art
