Not just stuff to look at

I like this book, it is small and easy to carry around. Each artist shows how they come up with these creative portraits. They show how they take images from several photos to create one unique work of their own. They show up close detail, so you can see how that particular technique looks up close. They give you a list of the colors they are using for the portrait in detail. For example, a list of colors used for the eyes, skin, hair, etc. I like looking at the final works, they are inspiring, especially Vera's. She did a piece based on her overcoming breast cancer. It's amazing.
