"Warm Pear" Acrylic on canvas, 12 x 9 inches |
I have often admitted I am an art supply junkie, and of
course that includes books about art.
So, it is time to start sharing some reviews of painting books. The latest one in my collections is “Color
Theory” by Walter Foster. This is an
easy to read, small book that really covers the subject well.
A good way to use a
book on painting is to read it then go through and pick some examples and give
it a try on your own. Thought I would
share my first practice.
I painted a pear trying to capture the difference in warm
light and cool light, just one of the subjects covered in this book.
