Draw outside of the lines
27 Oct 2000
By A Customer
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Spark up the excitement in imaging again, do what your elemetary school teachers told you not to do and start drawing outside the lines for a totally cool and creative look. The finished product is often not what you envisioned at the start of the manipulation, and the journey is as much fun and the finished product. Helen does a great job of using this technique and describing the tools and techniques you may not intuitively discover. Images used for illustration in the book are beautiful, and again Helen includes other photographic artists to help show the way. Definately worth checking out.

Watercolor Portrait Photography
21 Feb 2001
By Karen Johansson
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
The book is valuable for the information it extends towards composition, lighting and subject and the examples are wonderful, however, I really wanted to know more about the manipulation of the SX-70 image itself. Do I push here or rub? When is outlining favorable or why scratch the image? These are all questions I still have.
