It is always wonderful to receive feedback from my customers. Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to write to me. Here are some comments that I have received, thanks to the authors for allowing me to share.
Thanks so much! Our print arrived very quickly & we are very happy, we love it. Orkney is a special place - we were lucky enough to visit a few years ago to see Westray where my Great Granny came from. Your work is wonderful & really captures the spirit of the islands.

Hi Jane,
Just to let you know my order arrived safely today. It is a beautiful painting which I plan to give to my sister & brother in law for their forthcoming 50th Wedding Anniversary .
We stayed in Stromness for a few days last month but unfortunately didn’t manage a visit to your studio.
We have visited Happy Valley a few times on our trips to Orkney & it never fails to impress.. . a truly wonderful spot.
Thank you for your prompt service
Regards Annie July 2021

Hello Jane, Many thanks for sending the Hoy cottage platter so promptly. It arrived at lunchtime. It's Jean's birthday next Wednesday, so I will be giving the present to her then. We do so love your work and will, I am sure, order from you again. Love and all best wishes Tom, April 2021
Dear Jane, Very many thanks for the package which arrived yesterday -- the platters and cards are splendid and I reckon that we may very well be ordering some more very soon. Thanks Tom, March 2021
Victoria’s very pleased with her picture. When I ordered it I was undecided about a frame because she tends to move quite often. – but I now have it nicely framed.

I don’t know how you do it. ‘Sunset with Terns’ arrived this morning, not tomorrow or Monday!! Do you have a private mail service? It’s beautiful - and beautifully packaged. Thank you very much. Robert Feb 2021
Your cards arrived safely today Jane.
Thank you so much. I'm so pleased with them, as they have lovely colours and remind me of my 2 separate day trips to the Orkneys a few years ago.
Best wishes- Fiona Feb 2021
I realised that the picture that I loved so much in your calendar was coming to the end of the month and I decided I could'nt live without it! so I bought the large print, it is wonderful and I am now going to get it framed. Celia Jan 2021

Hello again Jane, I just wanted to let you know that I received the 'bus and blackbirds' print at the weekend. Thank you so much; it's just the job. My husband is a bus enthusiast (yes, I know!) and particularly keeps up to date with bus news in Orkney (yes, there is some sometimes!).As I promised, I've just placed another order online for my dearest friend whose birthday is on December 6. All the best Jean Nov 2020

"Have a few lovely numbered pictures Rackwick Bay ... the Hoy Hills from Stenness.... Mrs Findlay’s cottage ... Hamnavoe Stromness and some cards framed from years ago always reminds me of Orkney" Susan Nisbett
"I have 3 of your pictures l bought in 2 separate visits to Orkney.
I wouldn’t part with them.If l had the wall space l’d purchase more..." Xander Rankin
"Have a few prints and originals, love them all. Captures the very essence of Orkney very well." June Sinclair, Orkney
"Jane is one of Orkneys most talented artists. She totally captures the essence and beauty of our lovely islands. We have quite a few of her original paintings and prints and I enjoy looking at them every day. The high quality of the frames help enhance the stunning pictures." Jill Robb, Orkney
"I am a quarter Shetlander, but the Orkneys are so beautiful, one of my favourite places to be. I have prints and one Jane Glue original to keep me happy. Thank you Jane." Elaine Martin
"You have been part of my life for many, many years! Have lots of your pictures dotted all around the B&B - in guest rooms, guest areas and our own personal spaces. I have seen prints on your website that I don’t recall seeing before - I need more wall space!" Julie Rickards, Orkney
"We visited the wonderful Orkney Islands 5 years ago. I first saw Jane Glues' prints on Jane Glue was part of the inspiration behind the creation of The Riverside Studio back in 2005. The other inspiration was from my now husband Graeme Dykes who encouraged me to follow my dream. It was because of him I was able to visit Jane’s gallery in Kirkwall, to meet and chat with her, watch her work surrounded by her beautiful originals and prints, with her dog at her feet, and dream of doing the same myself. She was kind enough to give me lots of advice, even sending me home with a supplier catalogue to help me on my way. I keep two of her prints in pride of place and always think of her kindness, generosity and talent with grateful thanks and much love 🌟" The Dyke Family
"Orkney is always on our list to visit! Your paintings and words speak loudly of beautiful Orkney. I do admire your body of work! ❤️" Sheena McGoogan, Canada
'For me Jane Glue's works of art are absolutely infused to the core with "Orkney (and its people)" and its wonderfully balanced mixture of history, nature, wildlife and idyllic beauty. She brings these things out in her paintings, from the peace and quiet of the varied landscapes she captures to the majesty of the Ring of Brodgar or the intensity of the cathedral in Kirkwall or to the "mundane" everyday picture of a cow in an Orcadian field! Her work is like a day-by-day pictorial diary of these beautiful islands and has charmed me since I first visited Orkney many years ago now. It is almost the diary of an island love affair which cannot help but capture our imagination and keeps on bringing us back year upon year for more of the same.' Gwenn Segura, Scotland
