Marcela Muresanu a dat nota:
O carte minunata pentru cei pasionati de acuarele. Plina de ilustratii superbe si informatii foarte utile.
Anonim a dat nota:
Foarte buna cartea! Utila pentru oricine vrea sa se perfectioneze sau este incepator in ce priveste ilustratiile botanice si lucrul in acuarela.
Stefi Colompar a dat nota:
Toate cărţile de la această autoare sunt foarte frumoase dar aceasta, după părerea mea e cireaşa de pe tort. E o carte cu multă informaţie practică iar picturile din interior sunt extraordinare. Dacă aveţi posibilitatea puneţi mâna pe această carte.
