Reviews

[James]

This isnt a beginners guide so much as basic guide lines for approaching oils, techniques, compositions, colors and vakues. Some helpful reference stuff in here a r some suggestions, including some suggested pallets for seasons, water, etc, and general descriptions of techniques.

[Kari]

A nice refresher.
