Thanks, Melinda. The inter-library loan system was my first avenue. I submitted my request about a month ago, and it's looking like they're not going to be able to get them.
I'm waiting for the Tony Ryder book to arrive any day now. I bought that one from Barnes and Noble's website. I've browsed it enough in the store that I know it's worth it.
Books are great, but there's nothing like watching the process. In some printed demonstrations, step 1 shows a half completed portrait, with no explanation of the process that led up to it. I'm expecting the videos to start with a blank page (or canvas) and not leave out a single stroke.
