Feedback from the collectors of my art and others:
(Thank you all very much for your interest and your support, I really appreciate it.)

• I just received your "Abstract Nude with Pink Lips"...BREATHTAKING. I am a FAN FOR LIFE. Your use of color inspires me and looking at your painting not only pleases me, it reminds me that life is about positively affecting lives and making a difference. You've certainly affected mine. THANK YOU!

• I cried when I opened her last night! I've never experienced such emotion from art before! She is just incredible. I don't think I would have enjoyed anything more than Expression on Blue.

• I cannot express to you in words how much I LOVE the paintings!! As nice as they appeared on my computer screen they are even more incredible to really see and feel. The colours are so alive.

• Iam absolutely crazy about the painting. I couldn't believe it! I love it! It is so beautiful, and the colors are fabulous in our bedroom. We already hung it in the perfect spot and it has an art light shining on it. It's gorgeous!!!!!

• Your subjects convey their inner identity through your bold and decisive artistic style. Your work conveys a dynamic passion that transcends even the cold medium of the internet. Bravo!

• refreshing, brilliant and dynamic art work

• Oh My God!!! i just received your painting and it is so much more than i could have hoped for!!! i wanted you to "get" the emotion that i am feeling as a result of your creation, so i am writing this without editing...fresh from unwrapping the package.

• Your work is amazing !! We discovered "YOU" in the home we bought, and wanted to include the art in the purchase price !! (They said no !) Please email me a list of available art, and their prices.

• I just wanted to send you a big thank you! The painting surpassed my expectations...I absolutely love it.

• Reclining Nude looks absolutely gorgeous in her new home. she took over the room the moment she went up.... definitely the centerpiece of the sitting area and fireplace.

• It's magnificent; I love it!! The color, the energy, the magnitude.... I could go on-and-on. The bright and cloud-free sky today was perfect for receiving the painting. This evening the painting looks just as wonderful with a spotlight on it.

• dear martina, they are more beautiful than i ever imagined…what a wonderful experience...

• You have wonderfully expressive brushwork and color reminiscent of the postimpressionists Gaughin and Van Gogh. Do I also see a hint/influence of the 17th Century Dutch masters? Rembrandt, Vermeer. You have successfully combined these influences with your talent to come up with unique style. Keep up the good work!
