I paint, but I never copy. I just get ideas and read for helpful hints, such as color mixing. I had to quit oil painting due to allergies. I then switched to acrylics, and Jerry Yarnell's advice is invaluable. I think Jerry Yarnell is an excellent painter, and his book has been helpful to me. If you want hints on how to paint water, his advice is very helpful.

Very easy to understand and follow. This book is the best. I have since purchased two more of his books.
Outstanding!

I just got back from one of Jerry's workshops and am amazed at how much I feel that I learned. I bought this book at the workshop and it is excellent. It follows Jerry's method of step by step instructions with a photo of what the canvas should look like at each stage. Jerry's workshop followed the same procedure except we could ask questions and get Jerry to help us over rough spots. I've bought lot's of art books trying to find something that will help me. Jerry's books fill the bill perfectly! You can't go wrong with them. mstrick

This book is a welcome addition to the vast repository of teaching materials by Jerry Yarnell. The paintings are more intricate and challenging than in the previous two books. There are moody seas and skies, dramatic cliffs, serene settings, quaint buildings, and birds, elk and a variety of wildlife in the compositions. The step by step instructions are comprehensive, with excellent and detailed color photos of each step. Mr. Yarnell does a terrific job of reiterating and expanding on the fine art techniques that form the basis of all of his teaching material. If you are looking for an instructional painting book that is beyond the beginners level, then you should find this book inspirational, challenging and fun.
