Oil Painting for Dummies
I expected this book to be concentrated on oil painting techniques, but it was more like a general guide for art and painting as a whole and only a few pages dealt with oil painting. There were many theoretical sections about drawing, composition, and color, and there were also many tips about how to manage an art studio and how to avoid getting raped while painting outdoors!
I had a feeling that the authors considered their main audience to be housewives who wanted to pursue painting as a hobby.
By the way, the book managed to deal with many complicated ideas in a very simple and easy-to-understand manner,
I don't regret reading this book, but I'm happy that it's over!
