5 out of 5 stars Makes Me Want to Go Sketch and Paint!   March 7, 2007
  9 out of 9 found this review helpful

Good solid teaching methods in this book. I gained insight into the necessary thinking, tools and methods to fill my sketch books with loads of painted sketches....Takes you into the interesting world of composition of multi-viewpoints that are possible for a location, and describes the journey in entertaining ways-lots of very nice artwork examples. Recommended for the artist in everyone! No masterpieces allowed!
