Many an art student and BFA graduate arrive at the sorry state that
despite all their classes and books on painting, they still don't
understand the rudiments of oil painting - the basics of colour
mixing and creating the illusion of form. That's where "The Oil
Painting Course You've Always Wanted" comes in, an invaluable
primer on oil painting that sets itself apart from other books on
this subject. First, this book is a course - a composite of lessons
that the author, Kathleen Staiger, has developed over many years of
teaching. Structured so that each detailed lesson builds on the
previous one, the book reinforces the learning process with fully
explained diagrams, illustrations, exercises, and demonstrations.
Second, there is a logical, workable method of sure-fire colour
mixing. Third, the book is tailored to the insecurity of the
beginner; skills are built slowly, with precise guidance and
logical explanations. Staiger has been teaching this course for
years with amazing results. Students who have never touched a
paintbrush are now exhibiting and selling their paintings.
Experienced painters find they learn something new in every lesson.
This book is organized around a progressive set of lessons: Class
1: How to Create the Illusion of Three Dimension; Class 2: Making
Your Brush Behave; Class 3: Foolproof Colour Mixing; Class 4:
Putting It All Together Class 5: Still Life Painting; Class 6:
Landscape Painting; and Class 7: Portrait Painting. The features
include: a complete, foolproof primer; includes author's sure-fire
method of colour mixing; and step-by-step lessons, complete with
diagrams, exercises, and demonstrations.
