I want to start this review by saying, this book is gorgeous! Camilla d’errico is an unbelievable artist.

Her twist on surrealism is just breathtaking. I love how she adds animals, food, or even the look of elements to her paintings. The color of the cover pops at you, which would make this book the perfect companion for any coffee table. The girls in her paintings each have her signature pouty lips and textured hair. And she explains her techniques in such a way, you may not be able to mimic fully, but you may even discover your technique in the process.

“You are born an original, so don’t die a copy.”- Camilla d’errico

 She offers the reader tips and answers questions you may have concerning tools and materials. Helpful for anyone aspiring to paint or anyone interested in the topic of painting. The book is broken into two parts and then into different chapters that concentrate on certain areas such as sketching, blending, composition, etc. In my opinion, this would better assist someone who has some beginners knowledge in drawing or painting. But don’t let that deter you from testing out her advice even with no arty knowledge.
