Working with Talya was wonderful. She walked us through the process and shared the experience of what it takes to paint a portrait. The painting is above and beyond anything I could've imagined and the number of compliments we've received on the piece of art is overwhelming. I look forward to working with Talya again.

Talya was great to work with. We live out of state, and found out about her from a friend. She was professional, kind, and very attentive to my needs. She is detailed in her work, and gave our painting her full attention and love. We kept in contact during the process and she allowed me to see the piece as it developed and asked for any input I had. I never had any lol, because she’s so amazing, and the piece was beautiful! I couldn’t be more pleased with our painting. Talya brought it to life! If you want a hand painted piece, Talya will not disappoint. You are in good hands with her. She will give you her all!

Talya is a great landscape and portrait artist. I love her evocative landscapes -- she uses bold colors and noticeable brushwork, but it all blends into a cohesive whole. She's inspired by the Impressionists and it shows. Her paintings are filled with life! I highly recommend her for commissions or just for the perfect accent piece for your home!
