I am so excited to have this book! I already pre-ordered a hard copy for my art library. This is such a wonderfully creative, inspiring, stunning book. I love the vibrant images, material and how-to explanations, and fun projects. I really am eager to create my own versions of these, because they look so awesome! Plus, it is so cool that you really can't create the same art twice using these methods. This is a fantastic addition to any creative book collector's shelf!

I received this DRC from NetGalley

I had never heard of squeegee art before this. The projects look really accessible. The artwork pictured makes me want to try my own. Looks fun.

I found the techniques that the author described to be quite interesting. I think that this will be a fun way for many people to start experimenting with creating abstract art. There are not a lot of tools needed for the technique, although there are a few items (for example pointed "drawing" tips for the paint tubes) that may be difficult to find locally, especially for those in less urban areas.
I plan to experiment with the technique with the tools I have on hand and see if I can improvise for those that I don't have.
I would have liked more explanation of "why" certain things were done as knowing the "whys" helps with retaining the knowledge of the "how."

Fabulous book with some clever ideas for use with children or budding artists. Using non traditional tools to move paint across the paper instead of standard paint brushes is a great idea!

An easy-to-understand introduction to a novel technique. Accessible to novices and full of helpful tips.

This person was new to me but I can see why she has an Instagram following. This is brilliant, showing how even people who aren't necessarily great artists can create their own beautiful works of art.
My favorite part was at the beginning where she describes how this medium first came to her attention and she went around to different places looking for tools to use, not limiting herself to art supplies. The bulk of the book has art projects you can try yourself, with a list of what you need and tips for how to design your project.
Thanks to NetGalley for letting me read this ARC

This was definitely not for me. I guess I was looking for a squeegee art book that was more varied and tended more toward the online trending cats, ghosts, and others. There were some interesting techniques, especially around how to keep the colours from blending too much or to preserve a shape within the squeegee, but all in all, unless you are trying for abstract art, you may want to stick to social media for inspiration.

The pieces that I found the most interesting were definitely the ones where de Souza Rego taught a bit more technique or that had a bit less abstract elements. Basically, the pieces were there was more than just colours and squeegee.

Unfortunately, this one was a disappointment to me and definitely not something I'd pick up.

If Squeegee art fascinates me. If, like me, you have seen people splooging paint on to a canvas on social media and scraping it about with what appears to be an upturned plastic dustpan and yet creating delightfully abstract images, then this is a great book to explain how on earth it is done. Seriously, have you seen those ones where they scrape into a scene? Fab

I really enjoyed this book along with now having a tin of portential projects to try out. Absolutely brilliant

Thank you to NetGalley for the eARC (and an ever expanding project inspo list!) My review is left voluntarily
