Very nice book, I have read, but haven't tried what I have learned yet. Life gets in the way!

Excellent. The responses to the practical advice question were very helpful.

I have not done it, however I am going too. Your patterns are always helpful is so many other things I do. Thanks.
I do really like this book.So many projects to help me amend and fine tune my art work. It has also enlightened me on mistakes I am making with colored pencils that I was previously unaware. Thank you for this book of Step by Step instructions
I haven’t done any of the projects yet, but I have read through it. It is well written and packed full of lots of great tips and new (to me) tidbits. I love my time spent learning colored pencil techniques and this book will become a centerpiece in my library.
