The book's certainly deserving of a feature. You’re very welcome, Tjeerd. The book’s certainly deserving of a feature.

Shortly after reading this post (some months back) I bought this book, as well as "A Smile in the Mind" as mentioned by Neal Martin earlier in this thread. Both are very inspiring books and great to flip through. This post is a bit late, but I stumbled upon it while browsing your site's history. David, I’d like to thank you for this recommendation!

Its a MASTERPIECE.... Most highly recommended... When I first saw it, I just knew I couldn't go back home without a copy of my own...

Thanks for the recommendation. I’ve not seen that one before, and the description reads great.

I was in town on Saturday and I bought "Beware the Wet Paint" which is by a number of authors, writing essays on Alan Fletchers work. It's much smaller (in terms of number of pages) than The Art of Looking Sideways, but it still has Alan Fletcher's designs on every page. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Beware-Wet-Paint-Designs-Fletcher/dp/0714843784 Hi Dave

I'm trying to get into more illustration work and I find this a huge source of inspiration. A must have for the book shelf.

The fact that you don't need to stop and start at a particular point is ideal for inspiration. The randomness is oddly appealing, Amanda.

Very ingenius (and enjoyable to create I'm sure) a book that is like a scrapbook of concepts, visuals, thoughts ... no purpose other than to inspire. I must get myself a nice book case and start collecting cool books like this. Looks very interesting, what looks particularly interesting is the randomness of it all.
