The book is very well done, laid out in two parts, each with a multiple of exercises. The author takes time to address the reality of creating art in little snippets or mini essays, such as 'Flow', 'Art Scars', 'Developing your Fist' and others. I initially ignored them but as I went over some of the book material, I read them and found them to be very relevant to the practice of being an artist.
The exercise used different materials, such as water color, paint chips, acrylics, pictures from magazines.
Some of the exercises I seen when I took 2-d art, while others were new to me and quite interesting. My least favorite exercises where the collages made from magazine pictures. I love the exercises titled 'Dots', 'Bring Out Your Dead', 'Hex Addict' and my favorite 'Classic Schmear'.
Ms Lewis is a great writer, making humor a part of her writing craft. Her instruction is clear and for those who purchase this book and start practicing the exercises need to remember that it takes practice not 'talent' to master these exercises. I recommend this book for others, especially those of us beginning or out of practice with color mixing.
My only con; I do wish Ms Lewis took time out to develop a couple more exercises in color pencil, pastels, soluble color pencils and even crayon.… (mehr)
