Summary: Going to Europe?
Comment: Window Seat is the ideal companion to anyone who flies - or even armchair fliers who like to look at the world. The book is divided into roughly geographical sections that contain a wealth of information about the earth below. Flying will never be he same for me!

Summary: an oldie but goodie
Comment: great for the beginning artist. don't expect realism but great for fantacy and kids rooms. ]Would love to see an updated book with her new modello line of adhesive stensils. some of those were used for murals and special effects in my favorite faux book [[ASIN:0977896706 The House That Faux Built]tand I loved um. In fact melanie is featured in that book as well.

Summary: Not so bad
Comment: First thing I want to say is that this book is not a "window seat" one as all the pictures included were taken from a satellite.
The texts are corect and clear and the photgraphs extraordinary.
I only want to comment something. As a spaniard, I can say that there are not so many whales in the Bay of Biscay, as it is said in pg.75.

Summary: Perfect companion to original Window Seat
Comment: Dicum does it again! I'm one of those people who are glued to the window from take-off to landing, so I loved Window Seat for it's wealth of information and gorgeous aerial photography. I'm pleased to report that Window Seat: Europe delivers the same quality and joy of discovery. I've got a European trip planned for next Spring, and I'm really looking forward to using Window Seat: Europe -- Dicum's genius is in showing us how to enjoy sightseeing from 35,000 feet up!

Summary: Something to Aspire to
Comment: This book (as well as the author's website and training classes) are for the more advanced artist or professional painter. Her work is absolutely beautiful, and achievable if you have some artistic talent. Consider this book after you've had some experience with stencils and general painting techniques. For beginners, try "Stenciling on a Grand Scale" by Linda Buckingham if you are looking for a less complex entry into the world of trompe l'oeil using stencils.However -- if you're ready for a challenge, this is an outstanding volume!!
