Page Cut, Tomato Seeds Inside
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 1 year ago
Based on a quick scan through the book, the content and information are very well presented. It appears to be a very useful publication.
But I was disappointed in the condition of some of the pages in the book that I received, though. Between pages 46 & 47, there were what appeared to be dried tomato seeds and juice. On page 89/90, a 6" X 8" section had been cut out and partially taped back in. The condition of the book was described as "Good".
Color Recipes 2

The book contains just what it says, color recipes. It is great for the novice in determining a great color mixture for fruits, glass, sunsets, snow., portraits, etc. She also gives some compositional tips for creating beautiful paintings.

As a novice, searching books for the best instructions, I feel as though I have found a gold mine in Helen Ven Wyk's Color Recipes 2.The book is chock full of simple and informative instructions with many beautiful color illustrations. I am enjoying her book as I enjoyed her instructional videos on PBS. Perfect for the beginning artist.
Excellent practical disucssion of the use of color

This is one of three books by the late Helen Van Wyk all of which are very good. She has the gift of a teacher who can convey ideas simply and clearly. The book is filled with pages of examples in color which are practical and immediately useful. She gives examples of dozens and dozens of items and how to paint them. This is a great resource book for the artist. Check out her other two books also.
