My daughter bought me this for Xmas. Just finished it and loved every minute reading it. It also gave me some ideas to play with, especially perspective and "trompe l'oeil". I would definitely recommend it.

Interested to read your comments Marjorie. I was thinking of buying this book but wasn't sure if it was worth the expense - will probably order a copy now!
With Sarah, Phil, Ellen, Rose the dentist, and the granddaughter whose name I forget.

Is this the one he wrote with someone else - whose name I've just forgotten? 'Cause if it is, I saw a copy a few days ago - it's a superb book, with some of the best colour reproductions I've ever seen anywhere.
