Summary:
From award-winning painter David Curtis comes a fabulous on-the-page
oil painting course, with all the techniques needed to work
outdoors—in every type of weather—as well as in the studio. Through
finished pieces and stage-by-stage examples, students learn how to
capture the subtle effects of light and mood and achieve expressive,
original results. There’s expert guidance on choosing materials,
mastering different styles, selecting ideas, creating a good
composition, and using color and tone. Curtis pays special attention
to drawing skills and interpreting the qualities of light, while his
wonderfully evocative landscapes, coastal scenes, interiors, and
figure compositions provide inspiration.
