I can't say enough good things about Olga! She live painted my husband and I, along with our families and completely nailed it. She worked with me to go through all the little details, and made exactly what I pictured come to life. She's so talented and just such a lovely, easygoing person to work with. I would totally recommend working with Olga. You won't regret it!

Olga is such a talented artist. The painting she created of our Wedding Day is so special. The detail is incredible! Working with Olga was such a pleasant experience. She is so kind and caring and thorough. She added my little dog who has passed away to the painting so that his memory could be there with us. So happy with how everything turned out 🥰 We can’t thank her enough!

I saw Olga’s work at a friend’s wedding and thought she was incredible. A couple years later I reached out for my own wedding. I am so glad we did! She creates masterpieces that are a forever memory of your special day. She is such a treat to have as part your big day. Olga is professional, kind and works with your ideas. I had no idea what to do and she guided me through the process so patiently. We highly recommend Olga. Our painting is so wonderful. 💖
