“Pas de Deux” — Original Contemporary Artwork

• Hello, Lena. I'm one of your biggest admirers. As if you haven't been told enough YOUR WORK IS AWESOME. I hear it all the time my self when I'm selling my own work here in New Orleans. I've been reading your blog and I find it very helpful and informative and I want to thank you for being this approachable. Keep up the good work. — R.R.

• The painting arrived yesterday... It's beautiful, I love it! You are truly a wonderful and gifted artist with a great sense of humor and I look forward to buying more of your art soon! Take care and thank you so very, very much! — B.O.

• Dear Lena, thank you for my beautiful painting of the Romantic Guitar. You are a very talented and creative artist!! It's a focal point in my house and everyone comments on it. BRAVO! — V.T.

• 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.

• You've got so many styles and themes! Their all so consistently amazing it blows me away that you did all of them. You've got a genius for the craft that's really uncommon. Most artists have a hit or miss that uses a contrast of light and dark or an interesting exception or an inspiring idea. But you use every trick art has and do it over and over and honestly I love everything you've done. I've got my favorites... 1001 Nights (both of them), Sweet thoughts, Future Echoes of the Past and the entire Avant-Garde Etude, You and Me and Lost City series... But honestly I absolutely love all of your work. — B.H.
