After a family vacation in Clearwater Beach, FL the photographer I hired to do a family photo shoot…read morerecommended My Favorite Art Place for my canvas collage that I wanted. Jess was great to work with and set me up with a gorgeous collage with 9 total pieces. Fast forward a few months, one of the couples in the photos break-up, my son and his long time girlfriend. So, I reached out to order a new pic in the collage. To my surprise Jess mentioned that they may be able to edit this person out of the photos. We opted to replace one of the shots with my son's Golden Retriever. The work that Jess and her team did was nothing short of a miracle! I had no idea that this was even possible. I re-ordered 4 more canvas photos and have a revised family collage! If they can do this, they can do ANYTHING! See pics below

Now I must begin by telling you I had no prior art training and was a little apprehensive about undertaking learning such a new skill as oil painting at my age and lack of experience. Well Paul put me at ease and introduced me to a whole new world. He is able to train a novice or someone with a little or years of art experience. I have been a devoted disciple of Paul for over six years now and am amazed at how far my abilities have come. I have been retired for two years now and I am so glad I came across Foropoulos Studio. Paul and Dina are such an inspiration and are very accommodating. He is a real treasure as an internationally celebrated artist who is so willing to share his years of experience with a novice like myself and is an amazing teacher. Paul, I thank you for your generosity of time and experience that you have shared with me the past six years and continue to share.
