"When I decided to launch my website, I stumbled across Mary
Bella's MAESTRA site and knew this was IT. It also helped that I knew many of her clients
personally or professionally. I love Maestra Web Design because the sites are tasteful,
elegant, and clear; they remind me of Japanese flower arrangements. I'm not fond of visual
clutter, and some websites are messy. Mary's sites are clean and simple, and easy to
navigate.
I also appreciated her explanations of the technical aspect of web design and why some
things do or don't work. And it helps that Mary is an opera singer - so she truly
understands the needs of performers. Working with her turned out to be a mutually
collaborative effort, and I'm very pleased with the results. So if you need a stylist for
your photo shoot, hire me! Then when you need your site designed, hire the Maestra!"

"Thank you so much for the wonderful website you have created for
me. You obviously have a flair for web design, but this time you have outdone
yourself! You took my vague ideas and came up with something that far exceeds anything I
had imagined. The layout makes a lot of sense, and it all looks so good! Thank you for
your patience, good humour, and expertise."

"Making a website seemed to me to be an overwhelming project and I
put off getting started on one for years. Mary Bella made it so easy, quick and
affordable. I love my website! I wish that I had called Mary years ago. One phone call a
few emails and I was done, she took care of everything!"

"It was a great experience working with Mary Bella - the creative
process was fun and a learning experience for both of us and the result is a website I am
very happy with - visually engaging, easy to navigate and easy to update."

“Mary designed my website many years ago when my career had just
started to take off. I really appreciated her advice, enthusiasm, intelligence and
artistry, as I didn’t have a clear image of what I wanted the site to look like.
She built a really elegant yet understated website that I still really like to this
day. I consult Mary on a regular basis for website updates as well as for general
ideas on how to bring my site to the next level. Always reliable, Mary gets
the work done quickly as promised, and is always opened to changes and new ideas. We
are in the process of refreshing the design of my website and I know that Mary will once
again work her magic.”

"Mary was able to create just the website I had in mind. She
took my diverse ideas and melded them into a coherent representation of my work.
Details from type font to colour schemes were all treated with respect. Most
importantly she was able to make great suggestions, using her own creativity and
experience to guide me and help me make decisions. I recommend her without
hesitation to anyone who wants a clear and classy website."
