Collector Testimonials
Via direct messages, email, articles, posts, or candid conversations, collectors share their exuberance after receiving their Elisa Valenti Studio artworks.
“I wanted [my bedroom] to be very feminine. So of course there’s going to be a lot of celebrating the women form. I found this piece [in an LA gallery by New York] artist, Elisa Valenti. I just love the colors and how it’s celebrating women’s figures. They are full vivacious bodies and I think it is so important to see that”
-Vanessa Hudgens, California

“It’s an honor to have your art in our home".”

“I was drawn to your art by the gorgeous color palettes, botanical features, and feminine lines. I connected to it even more once I discovered the mental health and self esteem issues layered beneath the appealing aesthetic in some of the pieces. Your paintings show that full figured women, women of all shapes and sizes, flawed women, REAL women are strong and beautiful. Your art makes me happy, inspired, and more confident.”
-Christy P., Washington D.C.

“Your paintings and the spaces they occupy promote those spaces as accepting places for all bodies, That’s a powerful message. They are a message and lesson in humanity and love.”
-Chrissy M. Canada
“My husband and I are at the beginning of the process of having a baby via surrogacy, and as two men who might have a little girl, I’ve been thinking about how we can raise her in a context that equips her to deal with the obstacles society tends to put in the way of women feeling comfortable with themselves. (Or, if we have a boy, how to raise him so that he is a good ally to women and is exposed to a heterogeneous definition of female beauty.)
So seeing your joyful images of yourself, and reading your personal story not only about embracing your body, but about embracing your vocation, really resonated with me. Thank you for giving so much of yourself.
-Jared Spencer, New York

Except through works like yours. Thanks for giving me permission to all of those things and more. You’ve taught me a lot and I’m grateful. “
-Nome Cross, Madison, Wisconsin
“You’ve been so accessible in helping make sure the pieces made their way home. The packages arrived in a truly lovely and caring manner. I consider myself extremely fortunate to have original paintings, studies, and prints of your artwork in my home. My place feels more like me with your creations on my walls and I fall for them a little more each time I look at them.”
