 Expert instruction from a master of the subject. August 24, 1998
16 out of 17 found this review helpful
John Carlson is unique among artists in his ability to teach painting as masterfully as he did it himself. This book offers a deeper understanding of the subject than any other I have ever read. All things discussed within its pages seem perfectly logical and understandable and yet entirely new in the way they are presented. Master painter, master teacher, Carlson engages his audience completely and imparts his understanding fully. To read his philosophy of art alone is well worth the price. A must have book for the experienced painter and beginning student alike.
 Good book for the beginner, but need guidence from teacher. June 19, 1998
10 out of 12 found this review helpful
I had my first landscape painting class and this was the textbook for that class 30 years ago. It has good pointers for the beginner artist and puts stress on the correct value more than the color itself. The author considers that as long as you have all your values correct no matter what color you use the painting will look good.
