"This was our first experience buying fine art through a website, so we were apprehensive about the artwork's authenticity and how it might appear in person. The fact that Svetlana reached out to us directly, greeted us warmly, arranged delivery, and followed up multiple times put our fears to rest. And when the artwork arrived, wow, it was even more impressive in person! We didn't realize that we'd be communicating directly with Svetlana when we made the purchase. Not only did we receive a beautiful piece of art, but we also got a very kind, personal note from Svetlana that makes us appreciate her work even more. The painting reminded us of a memorable trip we took to Paris. Beautiful artwork. Incredible artist and a very enjoyable, stress-free purchasing experience. Our heartfelt thanks for how warmly Svetlana treated us throughout the purchase".

"Our main concern was around purchasing a painting when we hadn't seen it in person. Additionally, it was our first time buying from Svetlana. To reassure us, Svetlana provided us with many images and in-depth videos and responded to a lot of emails and questions. What made us the happiest was when we unboxed the painting and saw it for the first time. It was nicer than we could see from the images. There are subtle details in the work that you see when it's in person. The painting has a very prominent position in our home, so it really defines much of the space. I would happily recommend Svetlana and her work. Clearly, art is a personal choice, but I haven't seen other pieces like hers. There is a unique identity to Svetlana's work. Also, her support and service are excellent, and she is always so positive. Should the need arise, we would buy from Svetlana again. Thank you so much once again, Svetlana, for your work and all the support you provided. We are very happy with our purchase!"

"I came across Svetlana through the 1stdibs website. I was hesitant to purchase an art piece without seeing it in person; however, I was so impressed with her artwork that I thought I would give it a try. From the time I made the purchase, it was a pleasure to do business with her and the gallery. The art was delivered directly to my home from their local delivery service, and it arrived within a couple of days from the purchase date. When I saw the art piece, I was so excited and pleased. It far exceeded my expectations, and it is such an excellent addition to my art collection. I hope to purchase other works from Svetlana for my home. I would highly recommend her if you want an exceptional piece of art".

"I bought Svetlana's artwork twice is because it is: Beautiful, dynamic, stunningly beautiful! The paintings are big and bold, but yet detailed. I see them several times daily, and they give me enormous joy. When I purchased the first painting, I worried about shipping as it was so large, but her masterpiece arrived in perfect shape. Only yesterday, my niece walked by the fury of horses and said, "Oh, so beautiful!" I would highly recommend Svetlana's work to my family and friends. So keep up the excellent work and keep turning out your masterpieces".

"Svetlana was very amenable to working with me to create a unique artwork for my special space - above my fireplace. I looked at many of her beautiful paintings and guided me to the exact right painting, making suggestions and being so helpful. I love my unique piece, and it brings such style and atmosphere to my home. She is a talented, wonderful artist, and I would highly recommend her to everyone looking for a beautiful original fine art piece".

"I love this artist and so so happy with my purchase. It's been now a couple of months, and the painting keeps inspiring me. Highly recommend."

"We have bought a fair amount of fine artwork for our home. It seems like we see something we like when we are traveling and decide to buy. We don't like going into galleries and don't think the internet is a great way to purchase one-of-a-kind items. Svetlana is very easy to work with. She understands not everyone is an artist or art expert. We enjoyed our conversations and felt like we were dealing with a friend. The painting we ordered arrived on time, was packaged very well, and the amount of follow-up was impressive.
While covid has limited our entertaining and visits from guests, our new painting has become a focal point and the recipient of a lot of admiration. We are pleased with our purchase and will be in touch soon for another painting".

"Doing a commission with Svetlana was an easy process, and it turned out better than my wife, and I could have imagined. We have a couple of her pieces and really enjoy the ambiance, hidden stories, and tranquility that her pieces bring. We have a big wall on top of a staircase in our entryway and struggled to come up with the idea that might work for that space. The regular painting would be too busy. Tapestries might work, but maybe too heavy and intrusive. We thought we wanted something, but it had been several years, and we never did anything with that blank wall.
We went to a gallery that we frequent, reacquainted ourselves with some of her work, and started thinking that maybe Svetlana's style might work for us. She does a great job with color and texture in telling a subdued story, and as we saw some of her pieces, we thought that maybe she could help us come up with an idea. We have gotten to know her a bit over the years and trust that she will give an honest opinion, and if she did not think that space was suitable for her work or any painting, she would tell us. We are lucky that we live in the area, so she came to our home, saw our home's style and decor, asked some questions, listened to what we liked, did not, what we were thinking, etc.
A couple of weeks later, she emailed some ideas of what she thought might work. My wife and I looked at it, and it was "yes"....this is the right direction. We talked about colors, what she would try to bring out from the wall, and the rest of the art in the room, and agreed on the project...a large triptych that would hang on the wall above our staircase. (We would never have thought of that!)
After 6-8 weeks, we received some images of the work, and it looked great. Svetlana asked about possible changes, etc., and the answer was "no, just keep going" A while later, Svetlana personally delivered the triptych to our home. It looked great. Fantastic subtle colors, great textures, interesting; it is just the perfect piece for that space. A picture hanger came a few days later to hang the works, and it looks great. It is prettier and more suited to that space than we could have hoped for.
I would love to have another big wall and have Svetlana create another piece. She is a terrific listener and takes the time to understand your goal and what you like/dislike. She has the unique ability to take what she hears you say and what she sees in your home and translate it into a piece of art that resonates with you in a personal way. I genuinely believe that her goal is to make something beautiful and personal for the client....not just to sell a commission".
