5 out of 5 stars A MUST HAVE FOR ARTISTS/ILLUSTRATORS!   November 17, 2008
I bought this book a year ago now, and let me say it has been read and re-read many a time, showcasing plenty of street artists, but not much of their street art, their actual rough sketchbook work where they get the ideas for the big wall pieces, the drawings are amazing and there is plenty of variety and loads of pages, and at 9.97!? Bargain. I promise you if you like illustration and street art, and probs graphic design as a whole you will love this book and it is amazing, I only wish i could find more like it.


5 out of 5 stars The best catologe of street art i have ever seen!   October 1, 2008

absolutly unbelieveable! i cannot believe that such a quality book is being sold at such a low price. some amazing street artists (not just ur run of the mill graffiti artists) from around the world all with some very unique styles, using schools such as fine art, graphics and illustration.

i was going to go down to my local book shop and pay 30 for this but i amazed to see it here for a lot less! definatly worth a look for any art student wanting a modern perspective on some styles.

5 out of 5 stars pictures for all   February 10, 2008

Simply put, this is a fantastic array of street styles. From an artists perspective, it's always great to have images lying around for inspiration. Sketchbooks are frequently a fairly intimate form of an artists work, where ideas are collected, and as a result these pages really give great insight into these selected artist's work, both in terms of process and how their final ideas are formed. With a perfectly concise preface, and only a little explanation from the artists on their own work, the images are left to speak for themselves. Particular favourites were Amose, Blu, turf one and Will Barras, but so saying, all artists featured were intriguing, and none felt out of place. Just a great coffee table picture book for urban art fanatics.
