Summary: Excellent book, beautifully illustrated
Comment: You won't go wrong here. This is an excellent book that explains clearly essentials that you'll need in your art work of most any style and technique. I'm taken back at the talent of the author in painting strikingly beautiful works. Some art books are good reference materials, once read I'm willing to sell off and move on to others. Then there's books like this one: a keeper. You just have to see it to appreciate it. These are excellent paintings and the author gives really valuable reasons for why the basics of oil paintings are fundamental in a down to earth, easy to understand way. This is a great buy and well worth your attention. You'll love it.

Summary: Simply the best!
Comment: I was fortunate enough to take a workshop with Gregg Kreutz this year and found his teaching as clear, simple and USEFUL as the advice in his book. Most "How-to" books are filled with useless information that has more to do with the paintings being demonstrated than concepts the reader can take with them on their own journeys as artists. He describes his simple (thank God!) palette, his approach to shadows, local color and highlights. He covers composition in a straight forward, practical way. I came away feeling that I had all the building blocks I needed to start my long journey to becoming a Painter.
