Over the years I have looked at a number of printmaking books and they all seem to say the same thing or are geared to crafty sort of activities. This one pictured here however is much more interesting and instructive than many of them. Although it is written primarily for a British audience it isn’t too difficult to imagine where to get the materials listed in the exercises here in the US. I’m not going to give an in depth review of the book. I will say that it has introduced me to some printmaking techniques and processes that I was not previously aware of such as Mokulito and Lithino. The images are very clear and instructive along with the text. The book is emphasizes creativity and using your imagination.
