Testimonials
"It was an extraordinary experience watching Marjan unveil the commissioned portrait of me. I saw my whole life in those exquisitely-painted eyes. Each time I look, I notice new detail - tiny strands of hair, shimmers on my skin, a subtle aura, tiny flecks that sparkle in the light. Marjan has infused my portrait with such radiance whilst communicating the spectrum of my emotions - as if she knew my stories. She has distilled the essence of all that makes me who I am. There's music and magic in this portrait. Thank you Marjan for this masterful, timeless blessing." Simone Keane (award winning musician)
"Marjan is a technical virtuoso who has the rare ability to touch the hearts of modern viewers through her mastery of traditional techniques. The people in Marjan’s portraits often seem to be just on the verge of breathing or speaking. Whole histories are implied in their faces. Some are weathered by the ages, some gaze into distances which hold new stories in the offing, and others are embodiments of artists, poets or muses." Giles Watson (poet)
"We are privileged to own and have proudly on display, one of Ron’s extraordinary paintings. His exquisite skill pays homage to a classic era and his work is a joyous celebration of artistic mastery." Dee and Steve
"I have two of Marjan’s paintings. Both are striking in their beauty and elegance. I’m always eager to share my favourite details of the works with friends, and never grow tired of seeing them hanging in my home." Sam B (Executive Teacher)
"On our dining room wall, Ron Baker's still life is a delight to meditate on. Luscious fruit forms rendered exquisitely in rich oil colours that glow even in the dimmest light. Golden peaches and sensual pears, the soft powdered bloom on dark purple grapes, ruby red currents I just want to pluck off the canvas and eat. Ron's classical reverence for the holiness of fruit brings great joy and class to our home." Simone Keane (award winning musician)
"I have purchased several beautiful works by these brilliant artists, including two commissions by Marjan. These paintings provide me with great enjoyment every day. Not only are Ron and Marjan superb artists, they are the nicest people and I am privileged to have them as friends." Michael B
