Excellent Resource November 18, 2008

I found this book to be very helpful in understanding how landscapes are created. I have over the years purchased numerous books on painting landscapes, and this book by far excedes them all. He gives detailed instruction in his lessons. I appreciated his thorough explanation of the colors he used. Since watching his show on t-v and reading his books, I have gained a new perspective on painting and an enthusiasm that I've never had before. Acrylics are fun, and exciting. I think he did a great job with this book.

This book is a welcome addition to my collection of Yarnell books. I have every book Jerry Yarnell has published and have used them all when I paint. Mr. Yarnell has an easy approach to complex problems and the fact that he also provides instructional DVD's for the paintings is great. I would highly recommend his books for every painter from beginner to advanced.

This book gives detailed instructions for painting basic landscape elements in an easy-to-use format. Yarnell's use of a limited palette along with a short supply list make his techniques not only attainable but affordable.
