Oil & Acrylic: Oceans & Seascapes: Discover the secrets to painting waves, open seas, and coastal scenes: Discover the secrets to painting waves, open ... scenes step by step (How to Draw & Paint)

Have just started into the book and am finding it easy to follow, though at times I find it hard to know what colours to substitute with when I dont have a particular colour. Getting nice results nevertheless.

Inspiring projects are spoiled by follow-along steps that are a bit too vague and seem to consist mainly of telling you what named pigments to mix. As even any beginning artist will know, pigment names and values differ with manufacturer, so such lists of colour are of limited use. If you want to learn about mixing colour, get a good book on colour theory, practise colour mixing, then you might enjoy attempting some of the projects in this book. Overall, not a bad source of inspiration, but I didn't learn a great deal.

It is a great book which should help me with trying to paint sea-scapes and make the water and shoreline look more natural than what I have been painting. It is a great help to any aspiring painter who like me an enthusiastic amateur. It is written in an easy to read style.

Print colour isn't correct But information very useful!

Bought as part of a gift for my Dad and he really found it useful. Some of it he knew but there were a few good tips.

Very ordinary and basic book on the subject, full of elementary information.You can tell he has been look at the Master of painting waves and seascape John E.Robinson but his results and integrityare in a different league.

This book was reasonably informative,however I feel it needed more information,I have a few books on seascapes and I found this one a bit disappointing.

Though I would have had more advice.From the book.A bit disappointed .
