      5 out of 5 stars 5 star, but hoping for a bigger book.......2007-08-11

      I give this five stars because it is extremely helpful in instructing you how to form your own dragon, but I was hoping for a bigger book to go along with the brushes, pencils, and paints. It's worth the purchase if you'll use everything in the kit, but the $19.99 book is the better purchase.

      5 out of 5 stars awsome.......2007-03-19

      comes with everything a beginner needs. I just wish I had more free time to draw...

      5 out of 5 stars Great !.......2007-02-08

      It was simple and complicated enough for my 9 year old. The illustrations are great and the details are easy enough to understand. The paint brush was actually a pretty nice one and not plastic stiff brissles.

        3 out of 5 stars Useful book for ideas and patterns for bird carving........1999-02-18

        Written by Roger Schroeder, this book is a summary of Ernest Muehlmatt's carving techniques that takes the reader through the steps of carving song birds using a power carver. Mr. Schroeder's writting style is difficult to get used to. He uses many un-necessary adjectives to describe the process of carving. Much of the first part of the book is devoted to reviewing Mr. Muehlmatt's personal opinions in bird carving. The reader gets a sense that Mr. Muehlmatt is quite egotistical. Nonetheless, the book does go over a few techniques useful to aquire for both carving and painting birds. Although geared toward people who use power carving tools, much of the information can be used for those who utilize knives and gouges. The second part of the book includes patterns of some common song birds and a pictorograph showing how each one was carved and painted. This turns out to be the most useful part of the book. Overall, readers will gain some knowledge of song bird carving and painting and a lot of insight into the thought process of Ernest Muehlmatt, albeit at the expense of sifting through the cumbersome writing sytle of Roger Schroeder.

          Book Description

          Impressionism has captured the imagination of people the world over since its first exhibition in Paris in 1874. People have long sought to understand how and why the Impressionists created their paintings and how their techniques might be replicated. Susie Hodge reveals the answers to these questions by assessing the techniques and styles of the great masters of Impressionism and showing how artists today can use their methods.

          An informative introduction explains how the Impressionist movement came about, explores its historical context, and defines the style and inspiration of the artists involved. The heart of the book, however, focuses on eight major Impressionist painters -- Monet, Pissarro, Renoir, Cassatt, Degas, Cezanne, Seurat and Van Gogh -- revealing how they worked and analyzing their well-known paintings. Each case includes step-by-step demonstrations that show the reader exactly how to re-create Impressionist painting details in appropriate style.

          5 out of 5 stars Create your own impression.......2007-04-27

          Since I believe all art is an impression - whether it is a photo, an oil painting, or a cold sausage lying on the bottom of a bath - I should always advise someone to develop their own 'style,' but a little help can go a long way.

          This is a very helpful book - the best I've found on this subject so far.

          3 out of 5 stars Ok for copying but not enough to learn the techniques.......2005-03-05

          I love impressionist paintings so I purchased this book to learn how to paint like the impressionists. The book's goal is quite ambitious. Teaching you how to paint like each of the impressionist masters in less than 150 pages just isn't possible. But the author does as good as a job as possible in this setting. The book is evenly devided amongst the artists, so you can get a feel for the differences of each artists. Instead of copying an entire painting, which would be much more challenging, she focuses on a small area of the painting. This actually makes sense to explain the techniques.

          The shortcomings of this book in my opinion are that I felt the book was more about copying the impressionist paintings rather than learning their techniques. In many cases the copies were pretty good but close examination showed completely different textures and it's obvious the technique was in fact quite different. In other cases the copy wasn't very close to the original.

          I've also read "Paint With the Impressionists" and the author took a different approach: He painted original scenes in the styles of the various impressionists. I think that one gives a little more insight to their technique.

          I think a better title for this book would be "How to copy impressionist paintings". Overall if you want to learn about the impressionists and need some guideance in copying their paintings, this is not a bad book. However if you do some studying on your own, and have access to a museum to study some original paintings I think you can do equally well without this book.

                5 out of 5 stars From the Author.......2005-04-26

                I'm pleased to see my book for sale on Amazon.com! It was a wonderful experience to create the paintings and text for this book, and I'm happy to say that it is very easy to follow and gives a good deal of insight into how I create my work. I reviewed the production at every step, and Walter Foster was wonderful on all counts!
                I have been teaching for over 20 years, and have instructional videos out on both oil and acrylic painting available, and I thoroughly enjoy teaching. I continue to paint full-time, and I'm working on my next book and more video instructional tapes this year.
                When you purchase the book, I'd be happy to answer any questions you may have about it.

                5 out of 5 stars More Than Just Good Art.......2005-04-26

                Although this latest in the series Walter Foster books will provide anyone who might be interested in how to paint horses with excellent information and examples, there is really quite a bit more here than just that. The art is superb and the narrative provides unique insight into the whole artistic process. Elin is not only a gifted painter but a very talented writer as well. Anyone not already familiar with Elin's work can easily find more information by simply using Google to look for Elin Pendleton.

                          Book Description

                          "A unique book with a unique approach, this is destined to become a classic." —Charitable Gift Planning News

                          In this deeply humane and informative book, Douglas White deftly weaves together personal insight and level-headed advice in a probing look at the human side of planned giving. He helps you understand, develop, and use the interpersonal skills that are an essential part of every successful planned giving officer's art.

                          White provides practical answers to such crucial questions as: How do I successfully approach a prospect for a planned gift? What are the steps to building a prospect's trust and instilling a sense of mission? How can I tell if I'm being too aggressive—or not aggressive enough? How do I handle a donor's lawyer and other advisors who don't support the gift?

                          Tracing the entire process of acquiring a planned gift from the first phone call to managing the gift's assets, White offers many helpful pointers on how to deal with donors, their families, and their professional advisors, as well as executive directors and board members within your organization. He also helps you translate technical knowledge into planned gifts that are better for both donors and charities.

                          The first book to take you beyond the mere mechanics and into the very soul of planned giving, The Art of Planned Giving is an important working resource for planned giving officers, fund-raising professionals and consultants, as well as nonprofit executives and board members.
