A few notes from the chair.
"Poch listened more than he talked, and the piece he handed back was exactly what I didn't know how to describe. Four sessions in and it still stops people on the street."— Marisol T., full sleeve, black & grey
"The realism is on another level. My portrait piece looks like a photograph until you're close enough to see the linework."— Daniel R., memorial portrait
"Booked him at a guest spot and it was worth the flight. Professional, clean studio, and the kind of artist who makes you feel like the only client that day."— Jenna K., color piece
