About This Book
THE PAINTER'S HANDBOOK is one of a very small number of comprehensive reference guides for the modern artist. The materials and techniques used in painting have changed dramatically since the Old Masters, yet there have been few attempts to compile all the recipes, methods, proportions, and definitions needed in today's art studio.
In the Painter's Handbook, you'll find historical context, details about materials and manufacturers, and advice about how to make paintings truly permanent. There are step-by-step instructions on stretching canvas, making watercolor from scratch, cleaning up oil paints, rolling pastels by hand, and so many more arcane techniques. This is truly a volume that every technical-minded artist should own.
