Hierdie boek met tegnieke as die vertrekpunt - alles duidelik met stap-vir-stap foto's geillustreer. Elke tegniek, oorspronklikes sowel as tradisioneles, word verder toegelig met pragfoto's van fotoplakbladsye waar die tegniek gebruik is. Die boek wemel van deeglik beproefde wenke, en besparingsvoorstelle word deurgaans gemaak.

Meer as 150 voorbeeldblaaie sal jou inspireer en leer, en die uitgebreide byskrufte gee nog bykomende inligting eerder as om die ooglopende te herhaal.
