• 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.

• Lena, we received your painting yesterday! Thank you for taking great care in packing and labeling it fragile. We hung it up already and it looks great in its new home. Once I have it framed and add lighting, it is going to look even more beautiful. The colors are as vibrant as expected. I look forward to seeing more of your work. — T.

• Wow, rainy pictures are usually bluey and grey'y, this is tremendous, very hot and vibrant in spite of the rain. — G.K.

• I've cleared the wall above the couch and look forward to adding the colors and energy of your artwork into my living room!! — T.B.

• I went looking for Abstract Art for the living room - when I came upon your work. Your work - The Piano - jumped out at me in a completely different way from everything I've seen on the net, and believe me - I've done a lot of looking. I fell in love with your 'Piano' painting. That one really spoke to me. I could really identify with the painting of the Piano - I almost felt as if I were standing there - looking - at myself with distant eyes. Hard to explain, but in a way - it's how I view myself. Music is my love. Water is also something I love - and I am always looking for-to- at it... I saw it as a sea of music - and the longing to walk along its shores. Thank you for a very special moment! I'll continue to watch your work. You are exceptionally talented. — A.H.
