grow: The Art of Koyamori (English language)

This is not an instructional book but more an inspirational one. You will like this if you have a cute manga style. The work is beautiful but the techniques involved are not difficult to learn from/ replicate. The only thing I didn’t like was the slippery dust jacket.

An absolutely wonderful book. Pictures like dreams interrupted only briefly by the flicker of a page

I have followed 'Koyamori' on Twitter for a while and was so happy to see she had brought out a book! It's filled with a very large selection of her works, in all shades of colour. Hugely imaginative and inspiring.

finally a collection of the artist's work in printed format. Glad to have it on hand.

I bought a copy for a Christmas present and may have to buy one for myself.

The book came packaged in a cardboard box.First of all I’d like to say that my disappointment with this item has nothing to do with the artwork itself, the pieces are nicely done with a fair amount of flair and the artist obviously has talent.My quibble is that this is stated as being Hardback in the listing. It is not, it is most definitely a paperback. It has a dustcover. A dustcover wrapped around a paperback. Adding a dustcover does not make it a Hardback, it makes it a paperback with a dustcover.Point laboured. Point made.Other than that the artwork is nice and there’s plenty of it although some of it is a bit samey and sometimes the paper stock and the printing don’t do the colours justice but YMMV on this.I wanted a Hardback.
