Finally, someone's written a practical, no-nonsense book about how to paint effectively with colour. A must-have book for beginners to advanced artists, the book explains how accomplished artists consistently choose perfect colours for their paintings. More importantly, author/artist Dan Bartges explains what great artists know about colour that most painters don't. Carefully planned and well designed with 100 colour illustrations throughout, the book provides a clear, reliable methodology for creating 'paintings with irresistible color, paintings that pull people from across the room.' The author sums it up best: 'This book will show you how to master colour. As a result, you will paint better pictures, and you will have more fun painting.'
