So the new book comes without the advice to painters in the back. You can still find the old book in the same Blurb page.

It was supposed to be a more graphic element , difficult to read because it was meant a a bit of a puzzle. I also think collectors sometimes like to read about process. But may be you are correct in assuming they'd rather just get a clear image and not bother. <br />I will revisit the book soon and try to mend some things based on the comments I've gotten. <br />Jose Luis De Juanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00871683935365621880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1390405606083298634.post-51739285890650315932013-03-01T23:29:09.777-08:002013-03-01T23:29:09.777-08:00Hi Jose,
it's a beautiful book!
Because it s...Hi Jose,<br /><br />it's a beautiful book!<br /><br />Because it seems that you haven't decided this book as final yet, so there is still a possibility to change things (or not?) I would like to suggest some change concerning the back cover. The text is a bit hard to read to be honest. Also, while the introduction text is clearly aimed at a broader public, the advise on the back cover seems to be aimed particularly at painters. I'd suggest considering a text that is more aimed at collectors, rather than painters.<br /><br />Of course this is merely a suggestion so I hope you are not offended by my thoughts. I just felt I had to tell you now that you still have the option to make changes. The book is a beauty as it is now, so even if you don't change anything, it will be a wonderful addition to the experience of your show's visitors.<br />Best of luck!Johanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02417615368000033233noreply@blogger.com
