Highly Recommended

It’s great. I’m getting back into painting after many years. Has great examples of patterns that I never could quite figure out how to paint. Very excited to start.

My copy has muddy colors and not much contrast

It could be that the run I got was off but the print quality differs significantly from what is shown here. The tones used tend toward a muddy reddish brown on many illustrations and the contrast is low, taking a lot of depth out of the illustrations and making them look monochromatic. I have another book in this series on Pencil colors and the colors are much more vibrant.

Very informative

A really informative book on achieving textures with painting, it is a great starting point for any painter. Traditional in concept, and being so, is a very good step in stone into handling and adding of texture to a painting.It works on a four step process, and in the four steps in start from the first layer of paint to achieving very realistic look. There are various areas covered from people, animals and insects, fabric and textiles, food and beverage, glass, stone, ceramics, wood and metal and lastly all the aspects of nature from hair to feathers and beyond.I like this book and found it very useful.

excellent resource for still life artists

If you paint still life this is a must read. This book is filled with great instruction on how to paint wood, glass, diamonds, Wrought Iron, fruit, landscapes and much more. Detailed instruction is given on how to draw the item out and what colors to use in a step by step instruction.The end of the book has amazing paintings the artist completed.I noticed the author also wrote a similar book on drawing textures. I think that would be a helpful resource as well.I received this galley from NetGalley.

I couldn’t wait to get out my paints to try these techniques.

This is a wonderful painting guide. There are so many textures for hair, skin, animals, insects, etc. It shows the texture in four stages so you can learn to paint it in layers. Most books just show it and leave the painter to guess how to get there. I loved the detail which allows the painter to succeed. I couldn’t wait to get out my paints to try them.I received an eBook ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. This in now way affects my opinions and ratings of this book.
