Meet Jo
ABOUT
Jo-Anne Penn,
Owner/Operator
My mom used to tell the story of how, when I was 16 months old and still dragging diapers, I stopped pedestrian traffic by proclaiming to her how pretty the "psychedelic colors" were on a store front (it was the 60's).
I painted my first room at age 9, choosing a hot pink color to warm up my cold north facing bedroom. When I was about 11 I desgined a whole new layout and styled said room to suit being almost a teenager.
I never looked back.
Since then I’ve helped to visualize, plan, and create many whimsical, groovy, dramatic, serene, bohemian, cozy, and glamorous spaces; won a few awards for historic preservation and exterior restorations, been featured in some news papers, and turned lots of trash into treasure.
Chris Loudon,
Lead Contractor
Chris brings personal dedication and a fearless can-do attitude to any project. He’s got more than 10 years of painting, light electrical, plumbing, and construction experience, and wields any power tool like an artist. And no ladder is too high or too shaky for his long spider legs to carry him aloft and get the job done.
Chris thinks he’s cool but let your puppy near him and he melts like butter.
