Basic Figure Drawing Techniques (North Light Basic Painting)

5 reviews

North Light Books, 1994

Feeling ambivalent about this one, but here's why: ...
I looked over this book very carefully. At first I thought Greg Albert was the author. [I just finished SLAMMING Greg Albert for a different but poorly authored text elsewhere on Amazon!] But looking carefully, the cover states that Greg Albert is only the "editor" of this book, published by NORTH LIGHT. There was something disturbingly familiar about the illustrations which ...

Basic Oil Painting Techniques (Basic Techniques)

1 review

North Light Books, 1993

Step by Step starter
This painting book would be more aptly described as a tutorial on painting different subject matter. IN other words, style is not really considered, but rather this book is a step by step guide on how to put the paint on the canvas effectively. If you want to read about differing styles I would recommend Galton's Oil Painting encyclopedia. This book in contrast, has step by step techniques ...

Greg Albert

North Light Books, 2003

VERY helpful.
Very helpful. I know a lot about drawing, and a lot about controlling oils, but when I am out there doing a Plein Air, I can't remember any principles of composition. All I can think of is, "Ack! The sun is moving!" I am just painting furiously. This book is like BRAINWASHING. "There is one magic rule: never make any two intervals the same." Values: never make any two intervals the ...
