“I’m absolutely delighted with the painting of our Burmilla cats, Casper and Katerina. It’s wonderful how accurately they’ve been portrayed – their little faces are instantly recognisable, but even more importantly, they radiate that happy and content feeling that is so typical of them. Galina has truly managed to capture their character. You can clearly see their playfulness and, above all, their joyful spirit shining through in the painting. Every time I look at it, it brings a smile to my face. We are incredibly grateful to the painter. I would warmly recommend Galina to anyone who would like to have their pets painted in a loving and personal way – whether for themselves or as a special and meaningful gift for loved ones.”

“The walls in our apartment had been quietly empty for a year after we moved in. We kept searching for the perfect piece but couldn’t settle on anything – until Galya’s magnificent painting appeared. The poppy portrait of our smallest and fluffiest family member, Louchik the Dog, brought so much light, warmth and love into the space. Even though the artist never met him in person, the portrait captures far beyond his look – it’s his essence: the pose, the expression, the character. In an era where it’s hard to tell what’s real, this piece draws a clear line. You can feel the love it’s made with, the warmth of the artist’s hands, and the depth of an eye that sees far more than a snapshot ever could.”

“Galya is an incredibly talented artist. She created golden portraits of my two dogs, Archie and Kai, and our cat Vanya, and I absolutely love them. The portraits are not only beautiful, but full of warmth and character. She captured their personalities, not just their looks. They feel truly special and personal. It was such a wonderful surprise for me! It’s something so close to my heart and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.”

“THANK YOU SO SO much for the gorgeous painting of our beloved Mist. It is so kind of
you and now has pride of place”
Nicola, Norfolk
“Galya created a portrait of my dog, Alba, that I will genuinely treasure forever. The detail and character she captured are beautiful, and the gold background and detailing gives it such a special finish. She managed to create something which feels both true to life and thoroughly artistic. I’m so incredibly grateful to have received something so personal and well made. Thank you so very much!”
Morgan, Glasgow
“What a wonderful surprise it was to receive your lovely picture of Wiggy. You have 100% got her face, and we love the gold accents! You have no idea how much Wiggy means to us, and this is such a special portrait and kind thought.”
Kim, London
“My lovely dog Feta died last year aged 18, and I have missed her so much. I commissioned a portrait of her from Galya, who has captured her expression perfectly. Thank you Galya, this lovely portrait means so much to me.”
