3.0 out of 5 stars nice introduction, December 30, 2008
This review is from: Language of Vision (Paperback)
This is a nice introduction book. It was a required reading for a class, but I have found myself referring back to it on occasion. It's useful for art students of many different levels and mediums.

This is a nice addition to an artists library, especially an art student.
