"Elisabeth Bauerstein's paintings and the elemental effects of their colours project themselves into the room, enveloping the observer with their overpowering charisma" - Hermann Schroer, Arbon, Switzerland.
"There are no half-measures in these paintings , the spellbinding femininity in the form of an undefeated sensitivity, the loving permeation of the works by a microcosm that is new to her and the resulting overwhelming ecstasy of colour" - Dr. Franz Hoelbing, Innsbruck, Austria.
