This is an interesting book.  It is more for those who love to paint than any other type of craft.  The artists really emphasize working in studies to get to know your supplies and also getting to know yourself and finding your style.  This book was interesting, but since I am not really into painting, I didn’t get as much out of it as others will.  Yes the projects presented are mixed media, but still heavy on the painting.  And while I may not find this book the best for me, I do recognize it’s value and think it will go out quite a bit in a library.
