OILS

Titles in The Painter?s Corner series are self-teaching manuals for ambitious amateur artists. They can also serve as fine textbooks for the art classroom. For centuries, oils have been a favored medium for both professional and amateur artists. This book presents detailed instruction in color mixing, brushwork, and other means of achieving textural effects. Aimed at both beginners and experienced painters, this book explains the basics of painting with oil-based pigments, and then uses sample projects to show artists how to paint landscapes, seascapes, still lifes, and human figures.
