5.0 out of 5 starsOlivia's done it again!
By A Customer on December 19, 2003
I've been an Olivia fan since I first saw her piece "Second Skin Memories" in 1996. As a Bettie Page fan (the model for that particular picture), I was attracted to it at once and I almost could have sworn it was a photograph if not for my familiarity with Bettie's pictures. Since then, I have been captivated by the realism of Olivia's work. American Geisha is BY FAR Olivia's best work yet! These paintings are not only more realistic but more imaginative (see the adorable Sorceress and the Alien women that would put Barbarella to shame). It's also exciting to see that Olivia has been experimenting with textures and mediums. I'm captivated and I'm sure you will be, too!

4.0 out of 5 starsAmerican, yes - geisha?
By wiredweird HALL OF FAMETOP 1000 REVIEWER on August 6, 2014
It's Olivia - what more needs to be said? Her exquisite renderings, updated pin-up style, and her way of flirting with the edge of kink all come through beautifully. You'll find her cuddly kittens, over-drawn vamps, vertiginous heels, and [mostly] PG-13 style make this approachable. The styles are varied, within Olivia's range, and very easy to enjoy.

Recommended for any collection devoted to women's beauty.

5.0 out of 5 starssuperb
By J. Zarate on January 3, 2007
i was introduced to Olivia's work some years ago. this was the first book i purchased and i must say that it shows a broad range of styles. i actually prefer the closeups as they really shed light on the beauty of how she works. the larger, full pieces are fantastic, but it's in the details that you recognize the technicalities in her craftsmanship. it's these little things that i appreciate as an artist. the double cover is interesting, it was the reclining Max that hooked me. such a powerful image and interesting interpretation of the American Geisha. Olivia transcends the ordinary pinups and delves into classical compositions without all the frills. it's a great balance between eroticism and the ethereal.

5.0 out of 5 starsAnother slice of Heaven
By Daryl Brown on October 30, 2003
This book like her previous two hardcovers and Cheescake Chronicles vol 1 just goes to further demonstrate Olivia's total dominance over this type of art. Her art continues to grow and amaze with every piece. If you're a fan of Olivias this book is a must buy!

5.0 out of 5 starsOlivia at her best!!!
By Amazon Customer on March 7, 2011
Verified Purchase
I almost didn't order this book due to the 2 bad reviews but I am very glad that I took the risk. I found it to be wonderful!!! The few different versions of some of the art was actually an added treat for me. I saw no masculine models in this book. I love the Bettie Page art and lovely variety of art in this one. You can't go wrong with this gorgeous collection of Olivia's work!! I am truly inspired!!

5.0 out of 5 starsSome of Olivias famous paintings
By Tommy B. Roberts on August 27, 2013
Verified Purchase
This is a good reference for art students that want to paint cheese cake and create an atmosphere of exotic seduction in their paintings. I had her sign this book, so it has become a collectable for me as well as a great art reference.
