Description
A fantastic reference book from 1991. Published by Artways. This softback book is in great condition. It weighs 1115g and measures 28cm x 21cm x 2cm. Collection or delivery.
A comprehensive reference book explaining the background and history to paint colours and comparing the strengths and weaknesses of them.
The author says, “Like countless other painters, I have spent many hours wandering around art material shops looking blankly at the wide array of watercolours on offer. The choice can be bewildering.
Books which offered advice invariably promoted one brand or the other. Conflicting snippets of information about colours which faded, or were in some other way unsuitable, added to the confusion. I never once purchased with absolute confidence.
One thing was very clear in my mind, I wanted to know more about the materials that I used.
If you feel as I once did, you are not alone. There is enormous confusion amongst artists when it comes to the selection of paints.”
