I have known Stacie for 15 years. When I moved from Florida to Tennessee as a high school junior, Stacie was the first person to extend her friendship to me. Today, she continues to amaze me with the warmest heart of anyone I know. She is so vibrant and full of life; her art is a mere extension of her passion for people, music, love and life itself. Stacie has an uncanny ability to channel a whirlwind of her surroundings into harmony through a mixture of colors blended perfectly together onto canvas. Her art has a way of instantly bringing vivid memories of what inspired her paintings. My wife and I are the very proud owners of four special pieces by Stacie. Each comes with its own story. Each brings radiance to the room in which it stands. And as an active duty military member constantly on the move, each helps bring me closer to a wonderful friend that is now so far away. Thank you, Stacie, for bringing that extra dimension of color and warmth into our home through your beautiful paintings! Kevin and Misty Crawford ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Stacie recently finished a painting called “Forever Always” for my husband and I. We’ve been to her art shows and commissioned her art as gifts for others, so we have been in love with Stacie’s work for some time. This was our first piece for our home and for us to enjoy everyday! Stacie sat down with us and had a lovely conversation about what made us….”us” and the things in our lives that brought us to where we are today. We met again for her to show us a sketch of how she envisioned our story being told. It was SO much more than I could have hoped for!! She described the different elements and how it related to what we discussed. Stacie is not just a painter, she’s a visionary! She puts her heart and soul into every piece she does. She takes her time and thinks through each aspect. Your piece is as meaningful to her, as it is to you! When we saw our piece for the first time, it was AMAZING!! We have loved having an original piece that is so meaningful and beautiful in our home…to share with each other and our guests. This certainly will not be our last Stacie Berry original!! Melanie & Michael Abbott ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Stacie Berry is one of the hottest up and coming talents on the Nashville art scene today. Her very personal and interpretative style of painting sets her apart from the rest, as she creates her own genre of art. Her use of color and form is both dynamic and intense. My suggestion is that you acquire a piece of Ms. Berry's work while you can - because I predict that in the not too distant future, her art will be selling for thousands not hundreds, as she is discovered by the public. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We first encountered Stacie and her work at Crema coffee shop. We were instantly captivated, and agreed that a piece would be perfect for our home. We contacted Stacie and set up a meeting. She met us for coffee and conducted the first of two interviews Over these two interviews, she established a detailed picture of our relationship, the ways in which we complement each other, and the ways in which we contrast. After the second interview, which took place in our home so she could take photos and examine the existing color scheme, she delivered to us a marker sketch of her idea. We really liked what she had developed and finalized arrangements for her to create the painting (Beyond Edges). Over the next month and a half, Stacie emailed us updates on her work. Progress was faster than I anticipated for such a large piece, and she contacted us to schedule delivery before our agreed-upon deadline. While we liked the sketch she prepared, it did not prepare us for the intensity or quality of the final work. The painting blew us away and surpassed every expectation. We could not be happier or more proud of the custom painting Stacie created for us. Working with Stacie is fun and exciting. She exceeds expectations and preempts deadlines while delivering very high quality work. If you give her the opportunity, she will tell your story in the most vivid colors and create something that will excite you and your guests forever. This was a wonderful experience for us as a couple and we hope to have the opportunity to work with Stacie again on another piece. B. Beskin ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I have always been a fan of Stacie’s work, but it wasn’t until I was able to commission my own piece that I was able to appreciate her attention to detail. She took the time asking me questions about the colors I wanted, if there was anything special I wanted in the painting, and documented the whole process with emails and pictures. I really felt like I was working on the painting with her. The final product has become the pride and joy of my collection, and is the focal point of the living room. I feel that with her consideration for my input, I had a hand in the creation of a Stacie Berry original masterpiece. Stacie is GREAT! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
