 So so for PC users Nov 08, 2009
I have been trying to follow this book for some time now but all of the little windows shown for how to adjust something are for Mac rather than PC. Not only do they look very different on my PC from the pictures she shows, but the places to find them are also impossible to follow--I cannot find 50% of the command windows she has on her Mac for adjustments. Nearly all of the adjustments are impossible to follow and as a result about half of the book is quite useless for PC users. The other half teaches you methods of painting and drawing, which I suppose are useful if you have never done any drawing or painting on paper. In general, if you are a Mac user, purchase this book for the setup tutorials. If you have a PC, find a different book--which is what I am about to do!

Works for me . . . Sep 01, 2008
A very nice place to start if you're trying to expand Photoshop skills into traditional art techniques.

Not for the serious artist Dec 14, 2007
This book has mediocre instruction, and the example art is very very bad. I was very let down by the poor quality of both the instruction and sample art. I would say that both are not quite high school level, so I personally would hesitate to recommend this book to any adult that has any serious interest in art at all. The only difference between this book and a high school level art textbook is that this book also covers very, VERY basic software information you can easily learn from many free sources or through a few hours of tinkering. It would probably be a good gift for a kid or perhaps someone who is undertaking digital art as a very casual hobby. If you are more serious than that about learning digital painting, I would recommend Don Seegmiller's book instead.

The Photoshop and Painter Artist Tablet Book: Creative Techniques in Digital Painting
While I was not overly impressed with the art illustrations in this book I am very impressed with instruction. It explains the A-Z's of setting up your computer for Digital Artwork for both original art and photos. This includes setting up your pallates, naming/saving files, backup, etc.
Would recommend for newbies and experienced alike.
