When looking for a book to use as a stencil cutting guide, one looks for good detail and clarity of print among other technical issues. This book has it in spades. Beautiful and sometimes elaborate stencil ideas. If you like more complicated stenciling or if you intend to use stencil for parts of Trompe Loeil, this book is for you.
