Noni Royal has lived in Illinois, Alabama, Tennessee, Mississippi, Michigan, Virginia and Georgia.  She married her husband Rick in 1985 and they lived in

Virginia for 12 years before moving to Georgia where they now reside in Alpharetta with their 2 sons Graham and Aaron.  Noni has enjoyed Art from a young age as her mother gave art lessons in her home when she was growing up.

She began painting commissioned oil and pastel portraits in 1990 and loves working with clients to achieve  that special likeness and presence of their loved ones.  This experience in Art has carried over into her appraising and  helped her to understand that Appraising is often times more of an Art than a Science .
