It is a very short book, about 48 pages, but it is a very complete book on the subject.In fact, it included almost every technique I had found on the Internet after months of extensive searches, including one I had seen only in a paid class.So yes, no doubt some reviewers will tell you that you can find all of this on the Internet. (I'm the first reviewer, so there aren't any of those yet.) But it is all here in one place and it is organized very well.If there is a problem with the book it. 8 pages, but it is a very complete book on the subject.In fact, it included almost every technique I had found on the Internet after months of extensive searches, including one I had seen only in a paid class.So yes, no doubt some reviewers will tell you that you can find all of this on the Internet.

Sloppy, hastily put together booklet. Youtube and the Gelli Plate website have much more information. The techniques are not well presented and some seem to be thrown in at random. Numbering is off. Examples are not pictured ! Not a well thought out review of all of the possibilities. I think this was just an attempt to be among the first on the market - dollars being the real goal here.. ellenartist said What a big disappointment!. Not sure who this book is for - anyone who wants to know anything should buy the book by the inventor of Gelli Printing, Joan Bess instead. It's much more informative, better graphics, better written. Oh, well - I threw out $8. Will be donating this one at the local good will store.
