Art books reviewed in December 2009

Here's the chance to catch up on all the books reviewed, and previewed, in December, especially so if you've missed any, new and old.

My three favourite art books this month are 小畑健画集「blanc et noir」(Art of Takeshi Obata), The Art of Planet 51 and The Art of Oban Star-Racers. What are yours?

Most of my reviews are on Amazon, if you find them helpful, throw me a vote there. Greatly appreciated.

I've squeezed into the top 100 reviewers

Parka in top 100 reviewers list on Amazon

I'm now one of the top 100 reviewers on Amazon (under the New Reviewer Rank). It's really hard to imagine that nine months ago, I was still at 1000. Thanks to everyone who threw me a helpful vote there.

It's cool to see that 97% found the reviews helpful, which is really great.

Voting is a really helpful form of support for this blog because I actually get readers from my Amazon profile page. If you haven't voted yet, you can do so on any of the art books I've reviewed on Amazon — they are easy to spot because they come with a video — or even on my Listmania! List.

Hopefully next year, I'll slip into the top 10.

End.
