Review: Such an AMAZING tutorial book by incredibly gifted artists - Such an AMAZING tutorial book by incredibly gifted artists. This isn't a showcase of faux finishes in rooms, but rather a step-by-step guide to replicating numerous finishes. Useful for the home and in fine art, it is a reference book that every artists should have. A lot of tutorials are done by (in my humble opinion) mediocre artists at best, which is frustrating when one is trying to learn quality work without having to find the time and talent with whom to apprentice. This is a lesson by true masters of trompe l'oeil.
Review: Perfect would buy books from them again - Just what I was looking for and at a huge discount
