4.0 out of 5 stars A must, July 29, 2000
This review is from: The Art of Creating Monotypes (Hardcover)
As a printmaker I find this book quite satisfying. I decided to get this book primarily because I needed some new ideas and wanted to see whether I knew everything already or there still was something to learn. Well, I certainly found this book really helpful not only for its accurate and in depth descriptions but also for the examples that give you an immediate feel of what the process is. Still, I must say that reading a book is not as informative as taking a complete class or attending a workshop. For those who are new to printmaking or those who are already into it like me, I would suggest getting this book not only for its ideas but also to keep as a reference - There is an informative section on papers - something all printmakers should know - as well as accurate information on best materials for support that match colors that can be used on, ranging from oil-based to water based. - close to excellent

5.0 out of 5 stars This is an Outstanding Treatment on Making Monotypes, February 23, 2003

This review is from: The Art of Creating Monotypes (Hardcover)
I advise artists regarding their careers and I have long urged many of them to consult this well researched book as the most useful way to master a variety of maethods for making monotypes. I number of artists I know have found the methods Fredericks describes to be practical and stimulating. Artists have been making monotypes for hundreds of years but there is little material aside from this book that offers so many options.
