An absolute joy to deal with. I would have no hesitation in buying from again from Anna. Just a pity I don't have expandable walls...

Thanks a lot Luciana for leaving a review. I am glad you like my painting. I have waterproof paintings that will go in a kitchen or bathroom. :) Anna

This is the second painting I have bought from this artist. I love the colours and the style. I had no direct communication with the artist as the painting was despatched promptly and arrived well packaged, in good condition on the day advised.

I bought this painting as a gift for a close friend (although truthfully I would keep it myself if I could afford a substitute gift-- I love it). The seller quickly sent out the work, and it arrived quickly considering the distance it traveled (Ireland to California, USA). The packaging was sufficient this time. I think it should be improved to prevent damaging works in the future. The package arrived looking pretty beat up; thankfully, the painting was not damaged. I would have liked the option to pay for tracking, but it's not that important. Now for the bad: The size of the work was misrepresented by the seller to be 12x16in. I'm going to assume this was unintentional. Even the "Certificate of Authenticity" I received from the seller has the wrong size written on it: 30x40cm (approximately 12x16in). The actual size of the watercolor would be more accurately described as 25x33cm (9.75x13.75in). I would have liked to know the true size of the painting before I made the purchase. I bought a frame and mat for the advertised size, in hopes that I would have something to protect the watercolor when it arrived. I would have still purchased the painting, but I would not have purchased the incorrectly sized 12x16 mat. Suffice it to say, I'm a little frustrated. I know how easy it is to measure the piece to an acceptable level of accuracy. By "acceptable level of accuracy," I simply mean that if I ordered a mat/frame based on the seller's description, I shouldn't need to return anything. To anyone looking to buy from this seller: awesome, you are going to love it! The photo accurately depicted the painting I received and I'm very happy with the painting itself. I'm sure you will be too. I simply recommend that you either contact the seller first to verify the size of the work, or that you wait until you receive the work to start making decisions about frames and mats.

Hi Anne, As the mistake about dimensions was mine (When uploading the new painting, I copied from a previous one forgetting to check the dimensions), I offered you to choose a painting under 100 euros for free witch you were happy to accept. I hope that you already received it. We just want to keep our customers happy. All the best! Anna

Awesome, gorgeous, inspiring art. Great business to deal with and buy from. Safe packaging. After all, how does anything else matter if the painting arrives damaged? Happily, Suzy

All four of the paintings I purchased are quite lovely. I especially liked the effect of the "splashes" of metallic paint in two of them. Jane

Digital art was perfect! Watercolour background colour was different to image online, and had some creases from being rolled too tightly. Love the art though, very talented artist :)

I am glad you like both my works and I am sorry that the color of the background in the Spanish Dancer is different. It's all depending of the lighting when taking the photograph. In Ireland, most of the time the light is grey, giving that color. The paper I used is Fabriano, very thick. I find that the best way to protect the artwork in case of paper is to roll it in a tube. Wish you all the best!

The painting arrived promptly, well packaged and as described. I love this painting, it reminds me of watching my very young granddaughter in her ballet class.
