    Great book, as described. When USPS lost the package, the seller responded to my message with some suggestions about how to locate it. I put in some time with the USPS bureaucracy and eventually the package arrived.

  • Great beginner's guide to techniques

    I'm just beginning my journey so being able to see examples of techniques is very powerful. It might take me months of daily practice to produce all of these examples. If you are a skilled painter, it's probably NOT going to impress you however.
