Oksana is an extremely talented and intelligent artist. The range of her talent is truly…read moreextraordinary. Her paintings range from fashion art, replete with 3 dimensional fabric and Swarovski crystals, all the way through to conceptual art which makes a powerfully relevant social statement. On a personal level, Oksana is a delight. She is easy to work with; accommodating and considerate from the very first meeting and thereafter. I have known her for several years and have 6 of her beautiful pieces in my home, ranging from watercolors to an oil painting which I commissioned her to paint. She has been a pleasure to work and am proud to be among her collectors. If you haven't seen her art I strongly recommend you do so; you're missing something very special.

I am taking 4 stars away because Silvermine Art Center gets grants on the basis of "supporting arts…read moreand artists." And they do not in principle accomplish that, in my opinion. They do support their insiders' clique and their own appearance. For instance, there are talented artists in the area who are not rich and can't afford an open sketch at $40 a pop for long pose and $30 a week for short pose. If you do both open sketches a week, that's $70. $70 a week for the right to stand in a room and draw a model--no materials nor instruction. (Nor would I want that.) Proctor said it all goes to the model. I would like to see proof of that! To some of us $70 is grocery money. They haven't a clue. They live in McMansions, likely married to men who've made a fortune. This scene is by the wealthy for the wealthy. Additionally, I am disabled. I can't sketch from 10-3 on the long pose. I physically cannot sustain those hours. So I offered to pay half for half the time. (I would leave during the break.) The proctor refused to accommodate my disability. (I have medical records to prove it.) Cold cruel people run this place! A place where your physical disability will not be accommodated, though they get state and federal funds. Why don't state and national grants go to the models? To reduce the cost of the open sketch for artists? I used to work in a Manhattan art gallery on W57th Street, and even there I did not deal with oversized egos on the level of SAC admin. Looking around the room at the rich duffers who could easily pay 20x the fee, you wonder why admin can't raise all the money from them? I agree with the reviewer who said Silvermine isn't a place for serious adult artists. It is not. --It's a place that just as easily murders talent.

When I asked the woman behind the desk she became defensive and would not check with the person who did the pricing. She just doubled down.
