Book
The new oil painting : your essential guide to materials and safe practices / Kimberly Brooks.
"A guide to the materials and safe practices that will take your oil painting practice to new heights--whether you are just starting out, or have been painting for years"-- Provided by publisher.
Oil painting is a timeless yet endlessly adventurous medium, but many painters feel daunted by the variety of materials or the thought of using dangerous solvents. Brooks walks you through oil painting fundamentals: the nature and history of pigments, which materials you actually need, and how to eliminate harmful solvents from your work and replace them with safer, more environmentally friendly substitutes. -- adapted from back cover
