Comments on Nana's work



Since 1991, Nana has shared her unique cultural background and talent with our community, through teaching, exhibits and donations. It would be my pleasure to strongly recommend her as an artist and a teacher.

Nana captured the spirit of my children in a setting we all love, and did it in a style I was proud to have in our home. She is a friend, and a fine artist.

Not only is she highly trained and talented as a painter but her work is heartfelt. This is the quality that distinguishes artwork that endures over time from that which is merely technically proficient.

For Nana Bagdavadze, art doesn't merely mirror life. It describes her soul.

As a portrait artist, Nana is certainly a pre-eminent talent whose abilities deserve the recognition she is receiving in the United States and abroad.

Nana Bagdavadze is an exceptional artist who captured the spirit of my family in life size painting. Nana's vivid interpretation of our family's relationship to each other is well portrayed in a beautiful pose, which shows the depth of her understanding of personalities and unique characteristics.

Thirteen years after my brother's death, I gave Nana a handful of photographs from which to paint his picture. Nana had never met him, but created a portrait, unlike any photo, that seemed to bring him back to life.
