The Oil Painting Guidebook to Better Landscapes deals with five interrelated aspects of landscape painting: composition, sky, atmosphere, light, and the third dimension. One of the most important aspects of painting landscapes is properly painting the sky, atmosphere, and light. The earth is bathed or saturated in the sky, atmosphere, and light, and we cannot separate it from these elements and paint successful landscapes. The important subject of values is covered in the discussion about achieving the third dimension, which is also essential in realistic landscape painting. There are 14 demonstrations in the book, which give a detailed step-by-step and day-by-day account of the painting process from beginning to end. Color mixing is demonstrated by giving swatches of actual color mixtures for each demonstration. There are 185 pages with 175 color illustrations and 46 black and white. The Oil Painting Guidebook to Better Landscapes, available only on CD-ROM, will inspire you and help you in your goal to paint better landscapes.
