  • Beautiful and Insightful
I enjoyed this book so much. Im fascinated with Haidee-Jo’s ability to say so much with so few strokes, so I really enjoyed a glimpse into her techniques.

  • It could be better
This book will not be useful if you have been painting outside before. Also note that her choice of pigments is not archival (for example she uses zinc white and alizarin crimson - both pigments are no longer recommended). Her method for making panels yourself should not to be followed as it will result in the MDF chemicals leaching through the gesso over time. The images and her paintings are nice but the advice is too generic. From pages 32-52, there are multiple demos that do not show the reference pictures, this makes it hard to understand her method of seeing. I spotted several typos. Also there are some English expressions I couldn’t quite understand like ‘screw your eyes up’? I’ve read most of the book in the hopes I would learn something new and nothing so far, I wanted to give it a chance but I will not keep it. ... show more
