I know it sucks doesn't it erika, but I justify it by reminding myself of all the women who splurge on shoes  |

Hi Sinday
Because I just bought the studio book I prob wont get this one but thanks for letting us know. I'm always interested in getting new books and am currently looking at getting Jason Benjamin's book. At $100 tho, (if I buy it) looks like I'll be eating 2 minutes noodles for a while. 
Let us know what this book is like!

| Redsy I had a look at Jason Benjamin's book and I would like it for the landsacapes but the rest of it doesn't hold a lot of interest for me; I think I'll wait on this next portraits book. I wish Rick Amor would put out another book, but with all colour pics this time. |

Yeah i was having a good look at Jasons book last night at Kinokuniyo (i love that place) and I dont think I will get it. I mean the work is interesting but I dont know if its worth $100.
I really want to get Ben McLaughlin's book. His work is fantastic! Think I might get that one next week.
I wanted to get Rick Amor's book (but after looking at it the other week) I'm glad I didnt buy it from the internet because its all B&W, mostly text and not many images! I really wasnt impressed!

| It's a comment or two from each artist covering the 18 or so questions, studio, inspiration, reworking, getting started, medium... etc and some extras. Not sure if there is a gag reel? |

Thanks Redsy.
Amazon from around $33US, but it's a pain having to wait. Good excuse to go wandering some book stores |
