The Encyclopedia of Printmaking Techniques

Rating:
Summary: EXCELLENT REFERENCE WORK ON PRINTMAKING
Review: AN EXCITING AND COLORFUL BOOK WITH SUPERB EXPLAINATIONS AND ILLUSTRATIONS OF THE MANY TYPES OF PRINTMAKING TECHNIQUES. I FOUND IT MOST ENLIGHTINING AS A NOVICE TO THIS AREA OF ART. IT NOT ONLY TEACHES THE MANY FORMS OF PRINTMAKING, BUT IT IS AN EXCELLENT GUIDE TO THE ACCEPTANCE OF WORKS UNDER THE TITLE OF "PRINTS" WHEN FACED WITH A JURORED EXHIBITION. ONLY POSSIBLE WEAKNESS I FOUND WAS A LACK OF A GLOSSARY OF TERMS SUCH AS"CHINE COLLE",BUT I WOULD RECOMMEND IT HIGHLY TO ANYONE INTERESTED IN ENTERING THE FIELD OF PRINTMAKING.
