I reached out to Izabela to create a painting of all our pets for my wife’s birthday. She did such an amazing job, despite my poor example photos and very tight turnaround!The artwork is fantastic, and really captures the personality of all the animals so well. Izabela was a pleasure to work with, and I would recommend her to anyone looking to get some art made in the area!

Working with Izzy was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. I now have two commissioned pieces hanging in living room, and they genuinely bring me joy every single day. Izzy has an incredible ability to create artwork that feels both powerful and deeply personal.

“Izabela!!!! Where do I start. You have absolutely blown both my Fiancé and I and every single person that sets eyes on our painting! Thank you for a live painting experience we will never forget and neither will my family and friends. You painted us at our engagement party with such poise and style. It is truly everything we could have dreamed for, a timeless painting that we will have for the rest of our lives and pass on one day!

“Izabela is simply amazing. I have no other words. She went above and beyond what we expected for our big day! We had a vision, and Izabela worked within our budget and gave us the best experience possible. We are so grateful that we have this artwork to symbolise our day and be able to show everyone that visits our home.

Every artist has their unique process, and Izabela is no exception. What captivates me is the brilliance with which she express her creativity. Conversations with Izzy about her art illuminate my spirit. In my home, I proudly display two of her incredible pieces. One features a majestic lion in full ROAR, embodying strength  and vitality. The other presents a gentle indigenous elder. Effortlessly transporting the viewer into a realm of grace and contenment. Izzy’s passionate presence on this planet reverberates like the lion’s ROAR in her voice. Being in her company fills me with a soft, beautiful sense of being - an essence reminiscent of the all-knowing Shaman.

I bought a beautiful piece from local artist Izabela — a painting of a whale and its baby, seen from their tails. It now sits pride of place opposite my kitchen in my newly renovated home, and I absolutely love it. The colours are spot on — they reflect the ocean and tie in perfectly with the space. Every day, I find myself stopping to look at it. It brings a real sense of calm and joy. I couldn’t be happier.

I have know Izzy for a number of years and have seen lots of her artwork which really impressed me. I first used her skills to paint a Weedy Sea Dragon on my first Cedar strip canoe. I then commissioned Izzy to paint a portrait of my late father in-law Milton who had passed away a year earlier. I gave Izzy a photo of him and asked to paint her interpretation onto canvas. Both my wife and I were thrilled with the final result.

Thank you Izzy. 

Izzy's art is full of life and emotion.  We have several of her paintings in our home, each special to us. They are large, powerful pieces - each telling its own story -  rich in emotion and depth.  When we walk past them, we discover something new: a subtle expression, a shift in mood, or a detail we hadn’t noticed before.
