Review: I find that this book contains a lot of basic useful information.Though I have been painting for some time it serves as a good way to review the basics.The art shown will give you ideas for your own work.All in all a very good book for this type of subject matter.

Review: I think that this book was a waste of time. I bought this book in the hope that it would help me and my friends on the real word to strive to a glorious finish in our painting, that we were going to show in an oncoming show(now we can't because we do not want the embarassment of showing what we painted) I wanted to learn how to paint beautiful flowers for our house but I couldn't due to the poor job of the author of the book. The only information that it gave me was the stuff that I already know. now after spending [good money] plus shipping I am in even more debt than I already was. So thanks to that book I might have to go live in a shelter just because I wanted to be liked by my house mates even more than i already am.
So if you were thinking of buying this book, DO NOT!!! it is terrible!!!!!!!!!!

Review: This is one great book for step by step samples and area that may need special attention.

I especially liked the step by step pictures showing how to lay down the medium and building up tones and adding details with final touches. There is much more in this book and is a great asset to beginning artist and seasoned artist to learn different techniques.
