Let customers speak for us
from 156 reviewsImmensely Impressed
My book arrived promptly and well packaged. I have only read the preface and looked at the photo plates included as other demands have priority now. Suffice to say that the book is beautifully produced, based on that preface and some random chapter previews I know I’m in for an inspiring read. I was totally unaware what we have an amazing ‘Queer’ Blues legacy. I look forward to discovering this underground aspect of my culture and hope that it informs my own musicianship!
Great product and Service
Guy the owner was incredibly helpful and kind. Book perfectly packaged, really happy.
Totally splashed out as it was my birthday on the two Taschen XXL Amazing Spiderman books. Both are excellent, came in their own ASM printed cardboard boxes that were well packed and shipped in a bigger box. Books About Art kept me informed about the delivery every step of the way.
HUGE and beautiful book, sent in a specially printed Amazing Spiderman box. Excellent service from Books About Art.
Excellent book
A book full of ideas so easily forgottenl or overlooked as a painter. A good reminder of techniques that relate to the use of acrylics. Very straightforward, well illustrated. An excellent buy.
Great book.really nice photos of urban exploration.lovely colour palette of the images.
Jim Dine
The book was an excellent purchase at a very good price and I am delighted with it. Thank you very much.
More or Les
I have bought and will continue to buy this book as often as I can.
As a man much wittier than I said of Les Coleman and his work, "Les is More."
Indeed we all agree that he was.
One of the best art-focused book shops I know!
Such a wonderful collection of title from across the arts and culture spectrum. I absolutely love that you offer books that delve into the niches of the art world, limited run artist led publishing, artists practicing away from the mainstream and so on. The prices are a bonus, and the quick service is outstanding! I for one will keep coming back. Thank you!!!
Beautiful book
Such a beautiful book for the price
Lovely paper
I've cut the sketchbooks open to give me A3 sheets. Love the colours
Top service
Niche and great!
Does exactly what it says on the title.
Swift and easy.
Was looking for quite a niche book and it was a decent price and came quickly. Can't fault the service
Arrived quickly, well packaged
