This book is such a useful tool for any illustrator. Although not a technical guide, the projects are a great base to start from. I love having this book on my shelf as a title I can go back to for ideas and sources. I followed this title with Illustration by Alan Male, which supplemented this title once I had a slightly better grounding in illustration. I loved the selection of illustrations in the book, and found them truly inspirational. The book provides a broad spectrum from the whimsical to the oblique; with a useful glossary, illustration dialogues, reference material and easy-to-read text, ensuring the utility of this book.
