3 out of 5 stars Some useful ideas   May 25, 2008
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

There are some useful ideas in this book, but you have to dig them out. The authors have given us a hodge-podge of techniques, often without the detail one needs to use them confidently. There isn't much literature around about making collagraphs, so any information at all is welcome. Buy it if you're interested in this subject, but be prepared to live with trial-and-error printmaking till you get the hang of it.


2 out of 5 stars Not a How-To Book   April 21, 2008
 2 out of 3 found this review helpful

If you're looking for a how-to guide, this is definitely not it. It lists possible materials, but that's about it. It shows a wide range of artists and pictures of their work, which is nice, if that's what you're looking for.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent book   March 8, 2007
 6 out of 13 found this review helpful

This is a great book showing the work of many artists and discussing the history and placement of the colloraph. I enjoyed it thoroughly and bought one for a friend of mine who does this type of work. Since I am a printmaker I think one cannot have too many good books on the subject.
