Some of the most popular art instruction books ever written have been based on student notes culled over the years from actual workshop sessions, with all their power and immediacy - and with practical, one-to-one contact between student and teacher. This is such a book. For more than two years, Linda Cateura has pursued teacher/artist David A. Leffel, notebook in hand, as he critiqued the work of students. Linda Cateura's succinct notes capture his insights, philosophy, painting hints, and general comments.
I think that the book Traditional Oil Painting is a much better purchase - found this book too prescriptive. Perhaps if you are new to oil painting and not trying to initially paint like a master, it might be useful. The Traditional Oil Painting book is for the professional artist - more advice than paint by numbers. I didn't think much of the author's technical skills - pretty weak in my opinion - the book was a disappointment.
This is a must for either beginner or advanced painter, easy to read, the "secrets" have altered my approach to all aspects of oil painting, with amazing results.
