This is the definitive artist's reference source book on art materials and painting techniques with more than 1300 colour illustrations.

Contents include comprehensive information on drawing and painting media along with hints and tips on how to set up your own artist's studio. The book contains advice on making the most of colour, composition and drawing and sketching techniques in your work.
