• Your work is simply amazing. I am so in love with so many pieces - I can't decide which is my favorite... You are beyond talented and I was stunned by the beauty of your work. — N.P.

• Good evening, Lena, I have never written to an artist before, but when I saw your work online, I just had to contact you. There is a vibrance and yet, a joyful emotion in your work. I suppose it's not really work, but more of an expression of the depth of your emotions. Believe me, it shows! There are very few abstract artists whose pieces have spoken to me, but I do enjoy Dali, Picasso, and Kandinsky. I've never owned even a print of their work, but I feel very compelled to purchase yours. — J.G.

• I have searched to find some moving floral images and yours seemed to retain their natural quality and yet have a contemporary presence... I love them. — I.

• Lena, got the paintings yesterday, FABULOUS! They are WONDERFUL ... Thanks for signing them ... they are worthy of remembering where and whence they have come, Toronto ... Thank you ever so — T.O.

• NOW THIS IS WHAT IS CALLED GENIUS. I am also an Artist and Interior decorator in the UK and I couldn't help bowing my head in respect for such genius and excellence. Bravo!!! What a website! You made my day, inspired and challenged me... Your color combination, blend, brush and spatula strokes and flow reveal your technical excellence, but what stands out most is your infinite WOW ideas. That is what is called GENIUS. Congratulations for getting back into it and for your great success. KEEP THE FIRE BURNING STRONG. — F
