This book contains so much valuable information for no matter the level the artist. From colors to techniques, this book has condensed all the information the author had accumulated over the years of being a practicing artist. This book should be a essential part of every artist's library. One of the best reference books that I now own.
Every painter, except strict acrylic painters, should have this. It is a cookbook for artist mediums, and sound painting techniques. It is good for all levels of painters who want to make their own paints. So this book can help you save money by working around the overpriced pre-made paint industry. It also explains old techniques that are almost lost to our generation.
