In an informative introduction, noted artist and teacher Wendon Blake explains clearly and effectively how to handle oil paints. Topics discussed include drying time, basic techniques, composition, lighting and drawing, and colors and mediums. He devotes six chapters to painting heads and facial features. Guidance on planning, composing, and lighting the portrait precedes brief discussions about oil sketching and drawing with pencil, charcoal and chalk. Portrait painter George Passantino has aptly illustrated the volume with 64 black-and-white and 57 full-color illustrations, which serve as step-by-step guides to painting a variety of male and female subjects. Examples include a blonde man, blonde woman, red-haired woman, dark-haired man and woman, African-American man, and an Asian woman.
