Rating:  Summary: Great ideas for modern paint designs Review: I am a professional decorative painter, and this is without a doubt my favorite idea book. This doesn't have any of the frilly country stencils or flowers - this is all very stylized and modern, with clean lines and bright colors and metallics. It is definately something different from the normal decorative painting fodder. It is a great addition to a collection of idea/reference books. I use this book all the time.
Rating:  Summary: Lots of ideas Review: I received this book and and at first thought it was the usual paint book(stenciled bricks, color washing, ragging etc...) But after delving into it, I found many interesting techniques and different ways to apply them. There was also more information on various paints and their qualities. For example, what color does each color fade to and different layering of colors. It is a good book to reference over and over.
Rating:  Summary: Not a must have Review: I'm not a professional painter so I need a lot of details on how to do something and this book was short on details. Most of the pictures of the effects are very close up, so I have no idea what they look when viewed a few feet away. I was disappointed with this book.Mary
