Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Without doubt the best book on portrait painting (or painting in general for that matter) that I have come across.
Kinstler's lively, conversational style makes it highly readable, his paintings make it a visual feast. This book will appeal to everyone: professional artists, amateurs and curious laypersons who have never wielded a paintbrush in their lives.
Apart from the obvious step-by-step painting guides and notes on technique, this book is packed with invaluable practical information. Kinstler provides advice on topics most books of this sort barely touch on: studio layout, canvas stretching, transporting materials, painting on location, lighting, clothing etc.
In short an indispensible handbook for the working artist and a fascinating insight into the world of art for the merely curious.
