The only reason this reviewer gave 2 stars is for the faux finish stone effects. The remainder of the work, the so called trompe l' oeil effects, look as though done by a beginning artist.They are very unprofessional.Can't compare with Christofer Westall, Joyce Kerr Holding or Roberta Gordon Smith.

very good

Wonderful book!
