The best reward with creating art for others are honest spoken words that reflect what others have to say about someone.... in this case it's regarding works that are created specific for the collector. Here are some of the nice testimonials our collectors have expressed:

It all started about 3 1/2 years ago. My brothers told me about this great artist who was sooooo nice...
and who's work they loved because it was so bright and colorful. Now, I am NOT one to spend a lot of money so, I thought, yeah, yeah, yeah! Well, then we went to a craft fair where Sonya was. And, it started!! I HAD to have a piece. I started small! A 10x10 Mod flowers in a vase, but that wasn't enough. I had to have more. I then acquired another larger piece and my brother's partner and I commissioned to have a piece of artwork, "Monkeying Through the Tropics" done as a gift. With the set back to the pocketbook, I had to wait a while before I could purchase more, but I knew it was going to happen.

In 2007, I got married and received "Hearts-A-Fire #1", from my brothers and I fell off the wagon. :) I finally did it!! I ordered a commissioned piece for myself! Sonya took "Marisposa In Flight" and added a "Little Love" to it for me as a tribute to the wonderful man I married... and now I have my first commissioned piece. And, as the story goes, it doesn't stop there. When I went to pick it up, I saw "The Queen Bee"! Now, I have to have that one. I have truly been bitten by the Sonya Paz Bug!! Sonya's prints have brightened up my office and my heart! You are one talented lady and sooo down to earth.... you are amazing!! It's an expensive addiction, but it's a FUN one it makes the heart happy!! Thanks Sonya. You have turned me into a connoisseur of art!

Hugz!

My set of three Sonya Paz originals dress up my
family room with color, life, and joy. That poor empty wall had been pleading for the right artwork for quite some time. But I couldn't figure out what sizes, shapes, and themes were appropriate. Your in-home consultation helped define precisely what I needed. I'm so glad we (you!) did this project, and I'm way beyond pleased with the results.
My mood gets a lift every time I walk in the room.

Thank you!

"Melodious Family Adventure" is our first commissioned piece
and we're so pleased Sonya is the artist. The painting is prominently placed so it's seen right away when you walk through the front door. Everyone who visits remarks how fantastic it is, and we get warm, fuzzy feelings every time we look at it. Its composition including four palm trees is the perfect celebration of our family of four, and we will cherish it for many many years to come. Also, Sonya was fantastic to work with. She's unbelievably personable and really listened to our wishes, which she then transformed into a masterpiece.

Thank you Sonya!

Hi Sonya! We've just moved in to a New Town Home

We had a get together last Saturday night, it was a blast. All my friends were eager to just see the place to begin with. Your painting was a center of attraction, and I was very happy to choose this color. The red color really gave the room all the charisma.

My wife and I will be in your place again, thanks again,

The painting arrived safe and sound today so we are now the proud owners of our first piece of original art work. The fun we'll have deciding exactly where to hang it!!!!!

Many thanks for your prompt shipping and we both wish you all the best from Scotland and every success for the future.

Thanks again,
Eileen and Ken Mooney,

There aren't supposed to be words for Art but I have some words about Happiness.

I can't be more pleased with the commissioned piece you painted for me. Everyone who has seen it "Marvels" at the Colors, Depth and Cheer it brings. I have the added satisfaction that I participated in the concept and will have the painting for life. Great Work! Please share my words with others.

My Best,

I loved Sonya's work the first time that I saw it at the Palo Alto Art and Wine Fest last year. Her use of color and subject matter appealed to me right away. I purchased "Cabernet Valley #4", it continues to make me smile every time I see it on my wall.

I recently commissioned a piece of work from Sonya. As soon as I hung the piece in my front foyer, I was happy to see that the colors brightened up not only the hallway, but the whole house. Now when guests come over and see that piece as they enter our home, they know they are coming to a fun and inviting place! Thanks so much Sonya!

We got the piece and we absolutely LOVE it, LOVE it, LOVE it!

It really is a work of art! We just can't believe how bright and gorgeous the colors are and how well you "got" us all - it really is pretty funny! Everyone who sees it loves it, too. Thanks so much for doing this for us. I will probably end up being your biggest "collectors".

Tim and I, we both love it and we're anxious to get it on the wall.

We are so excited about the painting....We love it and know exactly where it will go!

When we pursued to have a large piece for our new home we discussed this with Sonya. Our concerns were that the piece would be too large and overtake the room... but it was a perfect fit! The piece is a signature statement in our living room and is bright and cheerful.

Thank you Sonya for creating this wonderful addition to our lives and our home.

This artwork is perfect - it is going to be the highlight of the "Taste of Terrior" event we are hosting in July 2003. We are so excited that your work is perfect for this event, heartfelt thanks Sonya!

We never thought that our room would brighten up like this! We love this art and it is everything that we imagined. It reflects all that we love, vacations, family, faith and comfort!br>
Sonya, you are the best and you captures our family perfectly!br>br>

Wow! I love it ...just what I imagined.

I hung my new painting in my dining room.

I've received compliments on it already! My friends love my painting and are quite impressed with your work.

You're awesome Sonya!

Brenda Cook

It looks terrific!!! Kids love it too!

So, in keeping with the personalized theme of the artwork, the name we chose is "Imagination, Exploration, Destination"

It's unique to say the least but one that has special meaning to us.

I happened to find Sonya Paz Art and what a lucky find. I immediately fell in love with her use of colors and her bold style. I received the art, which was impressively packed, and when we opened the box all we could say was "WOW". I have since commissioned a couple of additional pieces and couldn't be happier.

People love the art and ask about them all the time.

Leslee Hill
Reno, Nevada

We got the pieces, they are wonderful!

I knew that they would be great, but they are even better then I had imagined.

Couldn't wait to see the finished project!

We will find spots for all of them.

I found Sonya's paintings on the Internet and I instantly knew I had to have one of her paintings in my house.

Sonya was great to work with and if I can find a few more walls to hang things, I would like a few more of her paintings. Everyone marvels at this painting and asks me where it came from.

Sonya, Welcome to New England!

Two months ago I had the pleasure of viewing some of Sonya's art at Concannon Winery. I have since purchased a few pieces on-line and recently commissioned Sonya to do a special piece for my Olive Oil Tasing Room. The experience of creating art vicariously was truly a joy! It has been my extreme pleasure working with you and your art is just as much a pleasure to look at and enjoy.

Thank you Sonya for everything!

I was searching for a housewarming gift for two friends who recently got married and came across SpazArt.com. I looked through the galleries and had an idea of what Robin and Chris might like but then figured I would tell them about their gift early and allow them to choose. It was so easy to work with Sonya. We discussed dimensions, she sent proofs, and we decided upon time frames. I highly recommend Sonya's work and my friends said it's the best gift they have received!

I was fortunate to discover Sonya Paz and her art. Every piece I have purchased leads to another. I marvel at her creativity, bold colors, and vivid designs. One of the best compliments to Sonya and her masterpieces is the reaction from guests coming into my home. Everyone is fascinated by her work.

Lynn Hearn
Livermore, California

Sonya, I really do love your style, color and point of view!

Thank you so much for coming by the house and helping me "place" my new work of art. I look forward to working with you to get another painting for my home.

I have been purchasing Sonya's artwork ever since I discovered it earlier this year.

Her use of vibrant colors and original style are what attracts me to her work. We moved to the US last year from Australia and our apartment needed a huge "pickmeup" to look lived in. Sonya's artwork looks great against the other neutral colors.

The local content of the paintings will also be a wonderful reminder of the year we spent in San Francisco when we return home to Australia. I intend to promote her "downunder".

Thanks Sonya, keep painting.

I would like to thank Sonya for the customized artwork she created for me. I had recently put together my music rehearsal room, and wanted a piece of art that would reflect the music, be inspirational, and add some color to the room. Sonya had many great ideas and sketched several of them out for me to ensure that I would be happy. I am thrilled with the finished piece and it looks great in the room. An added bonus is that my 4-month old daughter seems infatuated with all the wonderful colors in the piece.

In November of 2000 I discovered Sonya's work, a very unique blended style of cubist, art deco and color. As I was furnishing a new home, I requested a commissioned piece from Sonya that would reflect the stylized interior I was trying to create, i.e. Art Deco mixed with Streamline Modern. Not only did Sonya interpret my wishes for the piece, she expanded it beyond my expectations.

Dennis Mulgannon
Los Gatos, California

After discovering Sonya's artwork I immediately wanted to commission something from her. I was drawn to her paintings by the energetic use of color blended with her unique artistic style. Since the commissioned piece was going to be a gift for my wife, I really wanted to make sure the subject matter, the dimensions, and the composition of the painting were just right; as a result, Sonya's creative talent, experience, and professionalism made for a fun process and as expected, the painting was terrific.

The paintings look great! We have them hung in our master bedroom....Sonya did a fantastic job!

Sonya, the paintings I have purchased from you continue to brighten the rooms where they hang. Your art has a distinctive "notice-me" quality that shines through even when placed in a room with other-art covered walls.

Your talent appeals to all in my family, from my husband to my children, and I can say that about very few other pieces we have in our home! You've been a delight to deal with, and thank you again for brightening up our home.

Thanks so much for the great art...the pieces look great and I know I will continue to enjoy them. I will keep in touch for gifts, etc!., it's great! Thanks again,

I just want to take this opportunity to express my satisfaction with Sonya, as well as her paintings. I now own five original "spazart" paintings and plan to aquire more. The vivid colors and designs have added so much to my apartment!

It has truly been a pleasure doing buisness with her.
