      I am so very pleased with my illustrations. Natalia is a very talented artist that transformed my thoughts into an amazing visual display of colors. she listened to my wishes and she used her experience to draw the illustrations almost exactly how I invisioned them. I am about to finish my next book and plan to use Natalia again and again. I give her a 5 only because there is no 10 to give her because she did a fantastic job and deserves a 10! I recommend her work to anyone who wants a job done well
