Book cover
The drawing I commissioned from Anouschka was beyond my expectations. I first spoke to her two years ago, and then she had created a work that perfectly encapsulated what I wanted to portray. I really liked the collaboration in terms of communication, process and final product, so I contacted her again for a new drawing.
That one has the same powerful result! We had telephone contact to discuss what needed to be portrayed. Anouschka built on what I told her, and came up with ideas I could not have thought of on my own. With her inspiration and my wishes for what should be in the drawing, she went to work to make some sketches.
From there, we chose the final concept together. She started working on the neat, final drawing and gave me photo updates in between so I could pass on some adjustments. The final product contains so much life, it is much more than a picture. I can look at it for hours.

Power Lady
When I found out about Power Lady on Instagram I was sold immediately. The power and energy emanating from this artwork through the use of colour and material touched me. I sent a DM and could visit immediately to check out the artwork from up close. In real life, it was even prettier and I could see the quality of the material and the hand of the artist. Authenticity and personal touch are very important to me. I appreciated that Anouschka communicated well. She gave me time and space to think and to choose between the original artwork and a print. She wrapped the original artwork carefully for transportation and I placed it in a beautiful and powerful spot in my home.

Custom portrait
I approached Anouschka for a custom portrait. It was important to me that Anouschka knew why: my mom was diagnosed with cancer and I wanted to support her with this portrait. Anouschka not only treated personal details and history with respect, she also came up with a ton of good ideas. Her enthusiasm, skill and flexibility make her both a special person and artist. I found out especially when the original artwork got lost in the mail. Anouschka was as sad about it as we were and she helped us out tremendously. In the end, my mother received a beautiful portrait that stood by her through her last chemotherapy.

The Blue Swimmer
I’ve known Anouschka for a while and I’m familiar with her passion and artistry. I follow her on Instagram and suddenly saw The Blue Swimmer appear. I was touched. Its simplicity, its colour blue, and to me it’s a comforting image I wanted immediately. Before I knew it, I had it framed in my home. It’s placed prominently in my home office and during this pandemic it comforts me when I miss swimming. A perfect gift.

Wintry landscape
I wanted to buy something made by Anouschka for quite a while. Her work enchants me every time. Then I saw the small landscape paintings executed in gorgeous detail. It seemed to me the perfect gift. Anouschka advised me on framing it and even helped me with a passe-partout.

Art print – Into the Woods
I loved the artwork ‘Into the Woods’ from the start so I was happy about the art print version. It is high quality, sharp, the paper feels nice and smooth and it arrived in a pretty package that even smelled good. I could sense that the package was shipped with love and care and appreciated the personal message.

Animal portrait – happy pig
I am completely happy with the gorgeous colourful pig. Even more important: my friend, the one I gifted the artwork, is so too! Anouschka perfectly portrayed the beauty of the pig and the happiness it radiates. It was a joy to work with Anouschka, to share ideas about happy and healthy pigs, and I was part of every step in the creation. I loved it! The pig now smiles at everyone in my friend’s new living room and I couldn’t wish for a more personal and beautiful present. I can truly recommend it!

Animal portrait – Greek Tortoise
Via a fun conversation and intelligent questions Anouschka found out exactly what we wanted. She made us feel part of the creation process which gave us the idea that we co-created the end result. We’re happy she provided the drawing talent! We are very pleased with our favourite animal colourfully rendered on paper for eternity!

Pet portrait – Rowdy
Anouschka made me a colourful portrait of my dog, Rowdy. I had seen her colourful animals on Instagram and instantly knew I wanted one too. Meanwhile it’s been hanging above his bed a few weeks already and I enjoy it every time I look at it. I’m impressed she caught his personality perfectly, that typical Labrador-look… Rowdy is of age already and I know this will be a precious memory once he passes on. Anouschka came up with the idea to use the colours of the heather we like to walk through in the image. This made the artwork even more personal. We received the artwork carefully framed and wrapped. I truly recommend having your pet drawn by Anouschka!

Animal portrait – Kiwi
I contacted Anouschka because I was looking for an original, timeless present for my dad. I loved coming up with an idea and letting the artist run with it. The end result (a colourful kiwi) was even better than expected. I’m really happy with the collaboration! Communication is clear about what you want as a client and what she sees as possibilities.

Animal portrait – elephant
My love for and admiration of elephants goes back a long time, so a personal drawing and the colours she used based on the stories we shared make the artwork extra special. Anouschka is attentive and listens closely, so the artwork I received fits perfectly! I would recommend Anouschka to everyone who is looking for a personal gift for a friend or family member, or as a gift to yourself!

Pet portrait – Tia
Anouschka is a very dedicated and talented artist. She takes time to get to know her client’s wishes and the (in my case) animal that she is painting. These personal touches, which include a discussion on colour palette, positioning, and character, and regular updates for feedback were extremely professional and pleasant. The end result was a hit! I would highly recommend Anouschka and her work.

Animal portrait – Hoopoe
We ordered a ‘hoopoe’ from Anouschka for our daughter and it turned out beautiful. Very close to nature with an accent of colour that is typical of her work. Anouschka listened to our wishes and worked with them in a creative and authentic way. Her study of the bird and the short updates of it were also very entertaining. There is a lot of love in this artwork and it radiates it.

Pet portrait – Lady
I was immediately convinced to buy an artwork when I saw the colourful seahorse on Anouschka’s Facebook. Then I saw she gives the option to draw a pet colourfully, that seemed like an original gift idea! She replied quickly to my message and we had a phone conversation afterwards for the final details. I loved that she added a post code! The artwork was professionally and carefully wrapped. I loved the quality of the artwork, you can see she put in a lot of work and she truly looks like our Lady!

Animal portrait – Jellyfish
My buying experience was great. My first original painting and I didn’t plan on buying it, but I felt part of the process and when I saw the finished product I fell in love. The ensuing practical matters were dealt with professionally. I was surprised how easy it was to buy art via Instagram. Once I had the finished painting in my hands, I was even more surprised by the quality.

Album cover
I asked Anouschka to make the cover art for my debut single on Spotify. I’m really pleased with the result. She asked if she could listen to the music and used that to start working. You can see it in the cover art. She listened closely to the music and the story it tries to tell. During the process she checked in with me frequently so that I was closely involved. All in all I’m very pleased and would recommend Anouschka for commissions like these.

Animal portrait – Owl
I’m so happy with the drawing! The owl has a nice place on the wall in my room. To me, the owl signifies wisdom and calm. Aside from that, the owl is a nocturnal animal and I recognize myself in that. The owl also signifies to me the beginning of an adventure (reference to the videogame The Legend of Zelda, Orcarina of Time). And above all, it’s a majestic bird. I really like seeing Anouschka develop her own style.

Intentional ink drawings
I encountered Anouschka’s art accidentally on Instagram. I liked the idea of three ink drawings based on a powerful intention and chose the intention ‘victory’ which means a lot to me. Within a few days the drawings were finished. I was truly surprised by the result: the three images were so diverse and so apt in their own way. I now own a beautiful and unique work of art of deeply personal meaning that I’m truly happy with. To anyone who is still in doubt, I would recommend choosing this unique experience!

Art cards
I’m so happy with the cards I’ve ordered! I’m always inspired by Anouschka’s art on Instagram so I’m really happy to have them in my home now. I was happily surprised about their quality: they are strong and the printing is so sharp it almost seemed like the real artwork. Quick and good service, thank you!
