Good but heavy
The content is fantastic, but the book is quite heavy to carry around in a sketchbag. Great for studio use though.

Exceeded expectations
The detail in the hand-painted style cards is incredible. It feels like holding a piece of history. Highly recommended for serious artists.

High-quality educational tool
As an instructor, I recommend this to all my students. The lay-flat binding makes it easy to set up on an easel while painting.

Perfect for my illustration class
