Very nicely written and easy to read.

The book is not too complicated and provides some very useful oil painting techniques for a beginner like myself.
not THAT bad...

I'm pretty much a complete novice in any form of art, so this book was quite helpful to me. There are several parts I found useful-- how to hold and handle the brush to achieve different effects, comparisons of student paintings to similar professional works, separating 'value' from 'intensity,' etc. I can imagine this book being a waste of time for people who've been in relatively good art classes or who've done enough painting to have learned all of this already, but if you consider yourself an amateur, this is a good place to start.
With not much to go on.

I don't have much to go on, but I quickly browsed this book in an art store and found it quite good as far as simplicity and "what the beginning artist should have." I would recommend it to the beginner without reservation.
