"With ten step-by-step demonstrations, each step timed to the minute, you'll discover how to focus your efforts on the essence of the subject, rather than getting stuck on the tiny details. Learn to rely on proven techniques to get the most out of your paintings and stop overthinking the process each step of the way ... See basic shapes first, then the fine details. Render rough compositions before committing your idea to a larger canvas. Explore composition, color and light effects Draw mass and form, not just the lines that make up your subject. A Word from the Author 'How does one become a better painter? This is perhaps the most commonly asked question by students of all levels. The answer is just paint or brush mileage. As simplistic as it sounds, it's the truth. Studying basic principles and methods are helpful, but there is nothing like experiencing the feel of it. Granted, there must be study and careful perception, but the old line "Practice makes perfect" carries a lot of weight here.' "--Amazon.com.
