Description

This art instruction tome forms the perfect companion to a new set of oil paints. It will be a long time before the prospecting artist need ever find inspiration on what to paint again.
An amalgamation of 3 art instruction books: 10 Bite-Sized Oil Painting Projects Book: 1, 2 and 3 means a wealth of ideas can be found here in one place. Find over 1000 instructional images and in depth instructions amounting to 50,000 words.

Learn how to paint a variety of subject matter including fruit, flowers, sunsets, water, woodlands, coasts, animals, snow, glass, gardens, vistas, old masters and more.

Most of the demonstrations have been completed within a few hours, making these projects achievable for artists of various abilities. Select demonstrations provide further ventures in the form of glazing, impasto, pointillism, applying detail and mixing greens.

Subject matter has been classified into 6 colour schemes due to the pervading hue or the focal point of the composition. Every essential oil painting pigment will therefore undergo the full workout. Art brushes will get worn, pigments will be used and the art surface will depict a scene.

Projects open with an overview with supporting images before step-by-step images and in-depth instructions ensue, guiding the artist from start to finish.

An essential guide on the art materials, preparatory processes and glossary are also included. Discover how to make oil painting cheap, clean and simple.

This book is a must for the artist wishing to practice oil painting without having to find ideas on what to paint.
