Summary: Fill your painting with Light and Color
Comment: One of the most helpful art books I have in my collection - lots of step by step descriptions and painting challenges. I highly recommend this book not only for oil painters, but all media.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Terrific landscape painting handbook
Comment: This is a great book with lots of useful suggestions about painting, managing a career, developing self discipline as an artist, etc. I expect to use a lot of these ideas even though my primary genres are figure and portraiture.

Summary: Landscape Painting Inside and Out, Capture the Vitality of Outdoors
Comment: Kevin MacPherson has written a wonderful book. As an artist I am constantly trying to perfect my paintings, and this book is a great tool. If you are wondering "Should I purchase another art book?", the answer is YES to this one.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Great book.
Comment: This book is very interesting; I have many art books, and this one gets you to thinking. It offers many ideas about how to go about creating better artwork (including using the computer, creating great value studies, use of color, etc.). A beginner or advanced artist would benefit from this book. This artist's work is beautiful. The book is well written, contains great content, and deserves "five stars." RMD

Summary: The author has given me truly expert advice. Not only is Keven an excellent artist, but a great story teller as well.
Comment: This guy knows his stuff and conveys his ideas superbly with great examples to support his recommendations. I respectfully disagree with his comment in the book "that while copying a picture may require great skill, it is not art. With the fabulous digital technology available today, we students of art can freeze that moment in time that we all wish to capture. Painting with passion comes from within and can be stimulated in various ways. An excellent book for any artist's library.
