Nita Leland’s art books are informative, adventurous and fun. Her latest accomplishment, “New Creative Collage Techniques” is another jewel in her crown.
On the other hand, the book should come with a warning, being, once you open it, you will never want to close it. So forget the domestic chores, grab your art supplies and discover Nita’s “Disney” world of creativity.
