When you learn to paint, do you start with the creative process or the technical details? Go for expressive chaos or risk getting bogged down in detail? With a technical guide as good as this, you don't have to make that decision, because this book is laid out in a way that will teach you the building blocks of how-to at the same time as helping you with the what-to. After a brief introduction to Preparing to Paint that deals with surfaces, you're quickly into Making a Start & working alla prima
- completing a painting in one go
- where there's little room for the fiddling that can bedevil creativity. After these basic techniques, the book moves through Ways of Working & Special Techniques where further ideas are introduced, including brushwork, impasto, wet-in-wet, spattering & sgraffito. The book works well both as a course to be followed from start to finish & as a reference tool that you can drop into if you require something specific. In fact, it's so well thought-out that it can actually be both things at the same time. Previously published as The Encyclopaedia of Painting Techniques, this has been considerably re-worked & covers watercolour, acrylic, oil & pastel. Book: Search Press. Paperback. 208 pages.
