meet and talk with the artists, one on one, while they
demonstrate their techniques and materials right in the

THUMBS UP
a. For Worry Free Construction:
Blake Gage of Desert Rose Development, Info@desertrosedevelopment.com,
has been overseeing several projects for us since we bought
our Casa last year. We could not be happier with the
results of both the work that was done and the communication
with Blake during the projects. He consistently stayed in
touch throughout, sending us pictures regularly, sometimes
several times a week. The work was beyond our expectations.
Having Blake there to oversee things gave us peace of mind.
We have heard horror stories from many people about having
work done while they are not there, and we just want to
suggest that if you want a worry free project, Blake is the
guy.
Chris and Christina Geyer
