5 out of 5 stars Excellent book for pastel artists!   September 24, 2008
A beautifully written and produced book that will be a hit with all beginning as well as advanced pastel artist. Like all good art 'how to' books, the book is rich in photographs, while still being a small enough to handle reference to take with you with your geat. This entire series is good.


5 out of 5 stars More knowledge awaits right on my book shelf!   February 8, 2008

Must admit to adding this to my collection of pastel art books in the hopes of returning to my penchant for this type of painting. Have been removed from it for some years and plan to resume the hobby in the near future. All knowledge for the project reside on my book shelves. Can't wait to apply that knowledge.

I have worked in pastels on and off for over 50 years and I was looking for a book to help me catch up on the latest techniques and what materials were available. I found this book to be very concise and helpful it is well laid out and the information in it is very credible the illustrations are both colorful and well done and are good examples of what is being expressed in words. I highly recommend this for anyone starting in pastel work because it is simple and well laid out and easy to follow. I also recommend it for anyone who has worked in pastel but has not worked in it for the last few years.
