Acrylic Category Animal/Wildlife Artist's Name |
This is a book about becoming an oil painter. In addition to its techniques and demonstrations it has a philosophy. It goes something like this: The materials and tools of every medium have their own characteristics. These characteristics ultimately determine how they can best be used, and the effects they tend to produce. Overall Bill Creevy offers two important things: He shows how to understand and navigate the sometimes-bewildering array of paraphernalia, and explains as he discusses and demonstrates oil painting techniques, how materials shape and influence them. The Oil Painting Book will be beneficial to artists new to this medium, as well as to those already working with it. A rare 30-step demonstration of the classic oil glazing technique is especially valuable. Bill Creevy's painting style is sometimes painterly, sometimes realistic but in either style he celebrates the luscious surface complexity for which oil is so well known. As an example of this see his extended alla prima demonstration.
