My favorite image transfer book

Anyone into mixed media will love this book. I developed a fascination with gelli plate prints recently and Jessica hits the mark when it comes to explaining the dos and don'ts of gelli plate transfers. I watch her reels on Facebook and like her teaching style. My own methods have greatly improved after watching her videos and reading this book.
