Abstract

Attempts to provide a logical step-by-step approach to mastering oil painting. This book begins with a simple underpainting in a transparent monochromatic wash and builds to more complex techniques involving layers of scumbling and glazing, using a full palette of colours. Through ten step-by-step lessons the author offers advice on selecting materials, choosing a subject and on technique. The book is designed to prove of interest to beginner painters, especially those with an interest in painting outside. Previous books by this author include Intuitive Composition and Pastel Painting Workshop.
