Customer Reviews

a real talent...

There may be some who are envious of this artists skill and there may even be some who genuinely don't like her work. Either way, one would have to be a fool NOT to recognise her immense talent. Anyone who knows any real Artists will understand how themes and colours can be repeated, this is not a bad thing in itself, even the the Great Masters did it, though unfortunately not all of their works survive in order to prove it. Alexandra should be an inspiration to everyone, (including art teachers) and if everyone had the great fortune to see her work face to face, they'd realize that.

For me, she's got it.

I like what I see. I could care less whether some art critic/teacher thinks her work is repetitive or not developing. I love the use of color and her inspirational themes, which I find lacking in the art world of today.

Inspirations of a great artist

I love painting too, and this book is just the right inspiration for me. Nechita is simply great, her paintings are so profound and spectacular, it is almost hard to imagine that they come from a thirteen year-old girl. I think my paintings are a little like Nechita's. This book is certainly a good buy, and anyone with an artistic flair or anyone who is interested in art should get it. The remarks made by Nechita for each painting are all very meaningful and they all touches one's heart. It is interesting to admire Nechita's paintings, while reading the aside remarks for each of them. One would spend hours reading the book.

It shows her style, unique and on par with masters

Outside the Lines demonstrates why Nechita has done more than what most claim to be on par with other Masters like Picasso. While abstract like Picasso, she has a unique style that creates her own genre, one where future artists will learn from but probably have a hard time matching.

It's like seeing Picasso or Chagall at ten.

You'll be overwhelmed with talents of this young prodigee. You'll enjoy Alexandras' description of each picture which seems to be created from her heart. This little Picassos' work gives us an insight to her young and inciteful wisdom and makes us aware of some of the simple values of life that most of us have lost along the way. This book is a great center piece on a coffee table. Only drawback is that Alexandra has created numerous new pieces that are not published in this edition. That's okay, art collections will anxiously await her next book.
