Excellent Book

This is the best book I have seen on the use of alcohol ink. Each chapter gives different methods of using the ink. It has great photos with step by step instructions. Each chapter also includes the materials and tools needed to accomplish the art work shown in that chapter. I have other books on using alcohol ink but this gives easy to follow instructions for a beginner and with each chapter the designs become more advanced. I highly recommend this book.
