 Journals Of Dami YouTube Banner Review 2022 |  'Working with Lou is always an absolute dream. They just get my vision every time, even when vague (Designer's nightmare, I know). Every poster they have made for my events has been met with such positive comments and intrigue. I particularly love the colours that Lou uses and each piece of their work is vibrant and fun. You won't work with a nicer and more talented human' - Chantal Herbert, Sister Shack CIC |  Review Feb 2021 |
 'I’m so pleased with the commission that Lou did for me! They responded to my email really quickly and had the artwork back to me the same day I filled out the form! Slight adjustments that I requested were also not a problem, done brilliantly and sent back straight away, inspiring artwork Lou💛' - Charlette |  'Lou is a very talented artist who has the ability to transform a brief into a final product. Working with Lou was a very easy and collaborative process, any feedback I had was taken on and implemented immediately. I would definitely work with Lou again!' - Sahar Nicolette, Editor Commission for a Subvrt Mag article titled 'A-Z of Sexuality and Gender Identity' detailing a gender and sexuality guide. |  'I am in love with the custom artwork Lou from goodstrangevibes created for me. We both share the same values and Lou understood exactly what I wanted. They were super speedy responding, working and getting the final piece to me! They truly listened to what I wanted whilst also stamping it with the perfect goodstrangevibes style which drew me to them in the first place. Would absolutely recommend this artist again and again. Can't wait to share it with the world 🥰' - Molly, Mojo Lingerie |

Lou was very efficient and listened to all my ideas which resulted in a lovely finished product - just what I envisaged and more!' |
 'The perfect gift for any friendship group! The design process was highly personalised so I could give input every step of the way. Lou studied photographs of us to make sure they captured everything accurately, even including details like tattoos! My feedback was always welcomed and seamlessly integrated into the final output. This piece, which so perfectly represents our friendship in Lou’s trademark style, will be treasured by the 5 of us forever' - Katie |  Pro bono artwork for @Now_You_See_Me_Moria campaign to raise awareness and bring visibility to the failing European migration policy.

 'I am beyond happy with my commission from Lou! I needed accompanying artwork for an article I wrote and Lou turned my initial idea into something even better than what I had envisioned! It is poignant yet delicate, and is incredibly meaningful to me! Thank you Lou - and I would recommend them for all your artistic needs and ideas!' - Sarah Zad |  'I would recommend Lou to anyone that needs a design brought to life, as I have nothing but positive feedback from my experience working with them! I came to them with a rough logo design idea in my head, and they used their own creativity and innovation to bring my idea to fruition, giving me a logo I couldn’t have imagined any better! We went back and forth with edits a couple times and they were always open to my suggestions. Creative and professional from start to finish' - Ivy Jade |  Commission for the Social Practice 1st Aid Kitt |
