Nataliya’s Fine Art

Nata is wonderful! I was so excited about the idea of a wedding painting. Not only is it a beautiful memento of our big day, but it’s a fun element for guests to see at the wedding. We met with Nata at a studio she works out of in SF to chat and we decided on a canvas size, 18×24. We put down a deposit immediately! She asked for some photos of us and key people that we wanted in our painting so she could get a feel for what she was painting. Her service is so straightforward that it was nice that we didn’t need a lot of correspondence leading up to the wedding. She arrived early to the venue, and painted us during our ceremony. It was wonderful seeing her there and so many guests complimented on her and how unique it was. She took some photos immediately after the ceremony of us in our wedding attire and left. we opted to have her complete the painting with small details in her studio (I think is cost a little more but I can’t remember) and I’m glad we did. The painting turned out incredibly detailed. She sent us a photo of it and asked if we were happy with it– I asked her for some small tweaks (people’s noses in particular) and she made the changes for us and delivered it to our house. Nata was great to talk with, she was an easy vendor to hire and work with… easy peasy! Thank you Nata for a wonderful memory of our wedding that’s going to forever hang in our home! I will refer her over and over.

Oh my gosh. I don’t even know where to start with this review!!! My husband now and I attended a wedding with a live event painter years ago and it was one of the first things we sought out when we got engaged. Nataliya was so awesome to work with. She was friendly and professional, and even sent us a card on Valentine’s Day. :) She showed up to our (very inconveniently located) venue hours before the ceremony to begin painting the landscape. Throughout the entire event, she was the life of the party. There wasn’t a single guest that didn’t tell us how wonderful she was. At the end of the night, she had created a beautiful canvas, highlighting all of the most important parts of our wedding. She’s outstanding. Our coordinator was so impressed she had to grab a stack of cards for future brides. Spend the money. Have a picture you’ll cherish for the rest of your life, and have the opportunity to work with the most talented, sweet, and kind person you’ll ever meet.

Natalya is an awesome painter, as you can attest by looking at her portfolio. She is also a great teacher, inspiring confidence in her students, and helping us develop our skills in a step by step manner. I would reccomend her without reservation!
