5 out of 5 stars Just what I had hoped it would be!   December 17, 2007
Jodi-Hummingbird
This book was everything I'd hoped it would be, and more. br / br /I did do the whole art school thing (twice) but the thing that is so good about this book is that it would be suitable for beginners as well as more experienced artists. The examples given are very clear, but there is no 'here is how you should draw a tree in three easy steps' stuff (shudder!). br / br /I'd highly recommend this book. My only real criticism is that it could be longer, I can easily think of 10 or 20 extra sections that could be added. I will keep referring back to this book again and again I'm sure.


4 out of 5 stars Very Helpful   April 19, 2000

A very good starter book on oil painting and techniques. I believe I have used some of the tips and strategies successfully. If your interested in painting, have this next to your canvas


5 out of 5 stars This book is very thorough, and well illustrated.   November 7, 1999

This book is a very complete introduction to painting and the many various ways paint can be applied to a surface. The thing I liked best about this book is that it uses more then one artist to illustrate the different painting applications. I have had this book for years and it is my favorite reference book.
