I've been a casual fan of Heikala's art work for a while now and it was really wonderful being able to see sketches and various works, as well as learn more about her work process
Gorgeous! Worth it, watercolor mastery on display!
Granddaughter delighted with the book for Christmas.
Stunning book, really impressed with the art and print quality. Love the new addition to my bookshelf. Great company to buy from and quick delivery. Will purchase more in the future.
Es un libro muy hermoso , me encanto aunque vino un poco roto en la parte de la pega entre el lomo y las hojas , las ilustraciones de la artista son hermosas
