The best companion for an artist As a fine arts professional and art teacher, I've bought hundreds of drawing and painting books extracting the best. In Tim Deibler's "Capturing the seasons in Oils"I have extracted almost all the parts of the book soo useful they are! The book have treasures of basic and indispensable topics as in Chapter 1 "The four key elements of painting" - explaining Shape, Value, Color and Edge ( The edge part its wonderfully detailed). In "Painting methods" Tim not only describes the techniques but shows the thing with terrific illustrations! In "plein air painting" You have a fine selection of equipment and delightful titles as "I'm outside, Now what?" On the last part of the book you have precious step by step demonstrations with detailed materials as paints,brushes and other supplies in little tips boxes. A clear up to the beginners and the advanced! If you buy this book I'm sure that by itself it will be your best companion and instructor for long long time ! | ||
EXCELLENT! I have greatly enjoyed all the works by this artist. His instructional video of this title is right up there at the top of all art videos. I've never seen an artist paint so fast and loose, and tie it all together into such inspiring pieces. His mastery of color and how he does his mixing is exciting and quite unique. Never seen anything like it. Worth every penny!! | ||
Sloppy Too Loose and sloppy Tim's DVD by the same title is especially bad. The production is good but Tim's technique is quite sloppy even for quick studies. Better choices would be "14 Formulas for Painting Fabulous Landscapes" by Barbara Nuss and "Painting Better Landscapes" by Margaret Kessler other notable publications by Gregg Kreutz, David Leffel and Richard Schmid would be a wise investment. | ||
Beautiful and colorful I was very inspired by the vibrant paintings in this book. This book has a compilation of a large number landscape paintings created by the author. The artist has demonstrated the steps required to create different effects and seasons using various techniques. Some more detail into these techniques would be excellent. For example, how to create the look of branches of trees against the bright sunlight. | ||
A solid painter OK so a lot of books by this publisher are kind of lightweight but this is a nice exception. Tim Deibler has a lot of painting and color knowledge and shares it in this book. His palette is spare but he gets miles out of it. He really knows how to mix color and he brings a freshness to each work. He's not one of those painters that keeps repeating the same color formula. This is a well done book with exceptional color reproductions. | ||
