About

Encyclopedic in scope, The Oil Painting Book is the most up-to-date reference for anyone who's ever painted in oil, or even just thought about it. Well-known artist and author Bill Creevy surveys all the oil painting materials that currently exist, beginning with the leading professional paints and including such recent innovations as oil sticks, alkyds, and water-miscible oils. He then covers solvents, painting mediums, and varnishes, as well as supports - linen, wood, paper, even metal - and their preparation. Finally he discusses tools, such as brushes, palette knives, palettes, and cleaners.
