I love your museum
"I would like to take my daughter and son (when he visits from California again) to your studio. Your studio has encouraged me to do more paintings. I always wrote poetry, stories and created jewelry as a hobby. I did other artistic crafts but now I am really going to continue doing it. I love your museum. It will be better if you had a huge place to display your talents. I saw the movie 'The Longest Ride', the same night I visited your showroom, and it included an Art Gallery. That must be a hint."
"During my visit to this extravagant place, I noticed Mr. Beau Lieu was very meticulous and detail. His creations and compilations were beautiful. My spirit was SO ELATED. I felt like I was in a mini abode. He assessed my piece of art and was very caring of how he handled it. I would visit this place again and I HIGHLY recommend it to others."
"I had an oil painting that needed an appraisal The painting appeared to be an original Carlo Mancini I sent Richard a couple of pictures including picture of the signature Richard did a quick review and informed me the signature did not match his signature reference bluebook. He said he could appraise it if I brought the painting in but could not authenticate it since the signature did not match the blue book. He did all this over the phone. Saved me a ton of time very easy to work with responded to my phone calls immediately I highly recommend Richard for anyone that needs appraisals or authentication S.Lynch"

Bottom line, he knows his business.
"My sister and I contacted Richard to appraise paintings our parents had owned since we were little girls. Richard came to our mother's apartment and appraised 30 paintings from two different artists. He was professional, organized, detail-oriented, and extremely knowledgeable. When the appraisals were completed he gave us a binder with photos, dimensions, and the appraisals for each one including the research he did to inform his opinion. To our surprise we found that 15 of the paintings from one artist were worth a surprising amount of money. We are slowly selling the paintings and have found that Richard's appraisals are invaluable because we are able to make educated decisions on selling prices. Also, he went out of his way on short notice to provide additional guidance during a negotiation that worked to our benefit. We highly recommend him as he is not only very professional but fair, and a gentleman. Bottom line, he knows his business."
