Awesome book,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Art of Seeing, The (8th Edition) (Paperback)
This book is awesome. The book covers a wide range of media that artists work with, and shows you some large, crisp pictures of them to give you an idea how the media are distinguished from one another. Arrived in great condition and on time.

This book did what it was suppose to do. Help me pass my Introduction to Visual Arts. The sender of this book sent it in time with a week to spare before my class started. This book has lots of good information in it.

This review is from: Art of Seeing, The (7th Edition) (Paperback)
I never received the book that I had ordered... I got lucky and was able to rent this book from my school's library. Don't purchase from surplus text sellers.
