Andy Μartin says:
"Jac has a unique talent for spotting the things in life most people would normally walk past. Her photostream is a superb collection of textures, patterns and beautiful colours; all from everyday objects most often discarded. Always a pleasure to look at her photos and paintings."

"Mermaid8 makes us aware of the natural art which surrounds us; beauty in decay, delicious details on the beach.
She is also a talented artist in her own right, with a unique way of interpreting her surroundings, a deadly skill with the brush (or anything else at hand!) and the ability to turn the most mundane everyday objects into meaningful masterpieces.
Oh, and she is warm, friendly, perceptive, intelligent, beautiful, and a great Flickr friend."9th August, 2009

"To find a kaleidoscope of colours in the most hidden places, beyond the most remote possibility and in the most improbable situations.
It is a specialist in drawing infinite tenderness from a stone; a complexity from the most simple objects and incredible texture from liquids.
However, it is through the passage of time that its art is entirely revealed. To register the passage of time with a distance that does not make it insensitive.
It achieves a delightful approach showing that the passage of time is an exercise of memory that makes one know oneself better. In seeking, it shows us how to find our own way.
In the most different situations you will find an image which will comfort you. It shows us that we can be sad and happy. Isn’t that incredible?"19th September, 2006
