  Testimonials
"The day I saw the painting for the first time, I cried. It was so beautiful! It made me smile. It touched my heart. I've displayed the painting on an easel, visible as people enter the front door. To me, it makes a statement about who I am and what's important in my life...my family, my friends and my animals." - Lucia Churches, Sacramento, CA

"It is definitely the most compelling item we have in our home. It's no accident that a small dog is popping up through the bottom of the picture, or that the cat is lounging so lazily, or that the larger dog is such a loving center - these are the real characteristics they have." - Jen Lundmark & Koy Wilson, Sacramento, CA
"Joe actually requested to paint the cover of a commemoration program I was working on for a community event. Having numerous conversations about what the piece should convey, Joe went into his studio and worked his magic! I unveiled the piece to my committee and there was literally a collective gasp! Joe captured the mood, the message, and the meaning in a way none of us could have anticipated. He also agreed to donate the piece for a silent auction fundraiser, where it created more buzz than almost any other item." -Anonymous, Sacramento, CA
"Joe's art is incredibly emotive-even before your mind takes in the image, you feel the emotion. He has done several paintings for us, and we adore them. The honesty of the images, his mastery of color, and the gentle motion he creates through the textures he uses are amazing. Many of the guests we've had in our home have also fallen in love with Joe's art, and comment on how it perfectly accents the colors throughout our home. Truth be told- we decorated the house to match the art. I guess that says it all." -Jeff & Dina Keon, West Sacramento
  "We have two Zaniker paintings in our home. We have long admired Joe's unique voice. His work connects with us on an emotional level. After purchasing his piece Higher, we commissioned him to do another piece for us. My wife Kelly asked him to do a piece that communicated the relationship between me and my two sons - the one that I cannot see. The piece depicting a Father walking along with his sons hand-in-hand is beautiful on every level. It brings us great pleasure each day, and evokes wonderful reactions and comments from visitors to our home. As for the price: You would pay many times his price for an original work from a well-established artist. Buy as many as you can, as Joe is on his way. In our opinion, his paintings are going to be worth a lot of money!" - Jim and Kelly Poulos, Tiburon, CA
