This is one of many books I have aquired in the last few months. This one is pretty cool landscapes.....I love how they show you how to acheive the looks...I learned several new techniques here. Very informative.
While the works shown have an appeal, the techniques discussed are very unlike traditional fine art landscape painting. When reviewing the author's biography it became clear as to why. Her background is as a decorative painter and her approach clearly shows that background. This is most apparent in her pallete, which is different for each of the paintings (with some overlap) and includes far more basic colors than is really nescessary--typically about 18... Clearly she doesn't understand/use the mixing (and hence more harmonious) color choices of a more limited pallete.Some of this may be a question of style, but in my opinion her approach is poor for beginners for two primary reasons. First, a more limited (and traditional) pallete helps to teach students how to mix colors to accomplish a given goal, rather than approaching painting as a child does a coloring book with a box of 64 (or more) crayons. Another reason that the pallete choice (and approach) are poor for beginners is cost. Even the second tier paint brands recommended in the book are expensive. Why but 18-24 different tubes of color when 10-12 are far more than sufficient--some techniques/palletes produce brilliant works of art with only three (research Velasquez limited pallete)?
I took up painting in 2010 and have had no lessons, but I find that this book helps me to see the step by step process involved. It conveys what is painted first, the colors used and the brushes you can use, if you choose. Dorthy Dent is another of my favorites!
This is an awesome book, it shows step by step techniques and how to use them to create a specific painting. I've found that when I practice these techniques I can apply them to anything i paint. Just finished painting off a photo of my nephew, if you'd have asked me if I thought I'd ever be a painter a month ago I would have laughed.I know other reviews talk about it being too easy, all I know is it has been great for this gal who has never seriously picked up a paintbrush in her life!
I like the fact that it is in oil or acrylic. It doesn't matter they are bothinformative and easy to follow. Most of all they are fun to do. I am learningdifferent ways of painting landscapes. I enjoy the informative lesson.Thank you. Nora
Very nice book with wonderful landscape pictures to paint. Instructions are very detailed and easy to follow even for a beginner like me. Received book very quickly and it is in wonderful condition. Thanks
