“Jeff’s work has redefined floral design as we know it. I see his influence in my
travels all over the world. And when I don’t see it, what’s before me simply looks
outdated…. His work is an art form, graphic, architectural, and always beautiful. His
character shines through his work and I have come to love them both!!! He is a great
friend and a great artist.”
