Blue Genie Art Testimonials

These testimonials offer a few kind words others have said about us.

We very much appreciate the support and patronage of our many clients.  We especially enjoy developing long-term relationships which provides us with a continued interaction with patrons we respect.

Dana,

The unicorn was perfect.  The client was very happy.  We coated it with chocolate and piped royal icing around the edges and finished by painting edible silver highlights on the icing.  We were so slammed that we never got around to taking a picture and it's already been sent to our off-property storage for next year.  Ya'll did great work and hopefully we will need your services again in the future.

Thanks for all your help — Mike.

A testimonial to the work of Blue Genie:

"Bravo, Blue Genie!  The trailer you have made for the Kinky Friedman Campaign is not only an instant treasure, it is a prize winner.  On it's very first trip out of Austin, the Bob Wade-designed masterpiece won the Blue Ribbon at the Center Point Founders' Day Parade!  You have captured both our imagination and the spirit of the campaign with your fantastic work."

"The Blue Genie guys are gods of 3D — there seems to be nothing they can't pull off . . . murals, floats, relief paintings, sculptures, animatronics — if you can think it up, they can make it."

"After a few smart cocktails I like to think I am one Blue Genie Art's closest 'associates'.  I might be a neighbor, but instead of borrowing sugar or whipping cream, my crew and I secure foamcoat or poly-sealant.  The Trail of Lights would not be the same without much of the creative input and craftsmanship and talent that is madly available within the walls of the Springdale compound.  The Blue Genies are great for advice, checking out some the latest advances and new techniques in commercial art, the perfect tool, my next brilliant idea and the occasional plate of Thai food."

"Long live the new mache!!!"

"Blue Genie is one of the finest environments in Austin to cultivate creative talents while working in a small studio business.  These fine artists share their mold making, construction and business skills freely with the community.  The founders and their friends consistently create artwork that is focused, funny, accessible and intriguing. They have a virtuoso-like ability to blend styles like pop, conceptual, Americana/kitsch, the decorative, and the narrative.  Blue Genie Art rocks like a flying V."

"Blue Genie was great to work with, they really listened to what Andy wanted, and came up with a fantastic mural solution for his home gym.  They were also willing to work all hours to accomplish the job in a reasonable time frame.  Andy loves the personal touches they gave to the mural, and it really inspires him during his work out."

"Thank you so much for your wonderful creation of the positive/negative wall for this year’s Family Art Area at the festival. Your concept was a terrific one and the participatory graffiti-style artwork was a complete success.  We were thrilled and I know many were inspired by your artwork."
