Let customers speak for us
from 42 reviewsAlways happy with a purchase from Ivy Wild Studio! I met the artist at a local craft fair in Colorado Springs, and was impressed with her artwork right away. I bought the COS 2025 calendar, and now that it is 2026, of course I had to purchase the 14er one! And the quality and craftsmanship is what makes me rate it 5 stars.
Super quick shipping. Great Artists version of Beautiful Colorado Springs. Excellent communication. I couldn't ask for a better buying experience and product. Thanks so much!
The most beautiful artwork! I love the local places as well as Ivy's other prints. Thank you!
Absolutely beautiful greeting cards and I’ve gotten several compliments when sending them to friends and family. The artist is also so polite and kind and helped me with my order. Would absolutely recommend!
Product arrived safely and timely. Calendar is as described.
Thank you.
Such a beautiful calendar and the performance size for your desk at counter!
Amazing artist for an amazing cause. I love the short videos when you follow the QR codes. Eash to use cards that you can carry with you.
What a lovely calendar. Arrived quickly, packaged in a lovely, eco-friendly mailer that can double as wrapping. Ivy was a delight to work with! Highly recommend.
I love our print! It is so lovely and a very high quality print. Ivy sent it super quickly and the packaging was perfect. Ivy is a wonderful artist and such a sweet person! Thank you!
Love how it emulates the castle in a golden hue.
Love the golden rustic softness of the ascension to the sky.
Bought as a complementary set to accentuate the local natural features in Colorado Springs. Very pleasing and serene.
Bright and reflective of a time gone by. You allow us to see the beauty of the landscape. It is a great portrayal of Colorados beauty.
So beautiful and loving the colors.
