    5.0 out of 5 stars Terrific Reference for the Acrylic Artist, Mar 13 2009
    By Doctor A. - Published on Amazon.com
    Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
    This review is from: All About Techniques in Acrylics (Hardcover)
    With every page filled with multiple photos, this is one of the most helpful and complete guides on acrylic materials and techniques that I've come across. The topics are clearly and logically presented. The techniques cover the basics to the more creative. This is an essential reference on acrylics for both the aspiring student and the seasoned professional.

    2.0 out of 5 stars Dull & Boring, Jun 24 2005
    By R. Kane - Published on Amazon.com
    This review is from: All About Techniques in Acrylics (Hardcover)
    I found this book to be extremely dull and boring! It was written by someone whose primary language was not English. One had to read some paragraphs 3 times and still was not sure what they meant to say. The paintings were not too great either.
