Title: Very Rich and Detailed
Review: This book brings a lot to the table! I was really amazed at how much there is to read, learn and digest from this wealth of information.It has simple descriptions of materials, techniques and styles, many of them charted out to compare easily. It gives you many reasons to create a personal art journal, helping those who have problems deciding where to start, like me.It may daunt those who don't feel they have any drawing skills, as the illustrations in the pictured journals are hand-drawn, however, there are many other examples that show you can take the materials around you to create interesting and intriguing layouts. It also gives simple step-by-step instructions on how to re-create certain drawings in the book.I particularly liked the section on the ways to bind books and bind existing books. That, on it's own makes this book a very valuable resource!I think this is a great addition to any altered book artist or art journalist!
