Not something I cared for...

This may appeal to some folks - to me, it didn't. Will be returning the item, as it is not all that appealing, and does not contain much I would be interested in (I enjoy realism , and this seemed full of gimmicky ideas. sorry.) (Like the way it was bound. though)

truley a revolution for me!

Although i do agree, it is not suited best for beginners, I found so much useful information from this book!

The techniques and different effects can be used with ANY ART STYLE. (contemporary, post-modern, classic etc.) Depending on your level of skill.
