  • good for the amateur artist
Format: Paperback
Oil painting is my hobby and I'm self-taught. Therefore, I have purchased many instructional books over the years. My favorite subjects are the sea and mountains, but the ocean is daunting. Mr. Lang's book has helped tremendously---it's not terribly complicated. Additionally, he doesn't use a lot of expensive supplies. I found this book to be just what I was looking for and would recommend it to anyone wanting to paint the sea in oils. ... show more

  • Comments From an Emerging Artist
Format: Paperback
Living on the coast I can't get enough of the magical light, intense colour, reflections in water or a dark brooding sky over rough seas, the tranquil flat calm of a still day - the ever changing scene. This book shows how I may be able to use paint to capture the excitement of the sea on canvas. I am itching to get going after reading this simply set out art instruction book. It is ideal for beginning artists who wants to paint the sea in oil. ... show more

  • Highly recommend
Format: Paperback
Could not put this book down. Beautiful, beautiful pictures and outstanding step by step instructions. No book that I have previously read has gone into so much detail in telling the reader how to complete the pictures. Now, if I can just get up the nerve to try to paint them. Excellent book by and excellent artisit. ... show more

  • Seascapes
Format: Paperback
Absolutely a brilliant book; very good for the beginner & experienced painter as well; learnt a lot about construction of a Seascape; from priming to finishing; a real keepsake for painters of the ocean or sea or beaches. 'Number One'!

  • Good demos
Format: Paperback
Good explanations and demonstrations. Shows the anatomy of waves and how to make the spray. For the size of the book this is good value.

  • disappointing and useless
Format: Paperback
This book is definitely NOT worth having. I judged this book by its cover but it is utterly useless. There are explanations of techniques but the outcome is definitely rubbish and apart from the image on the front cover which is really nice, the others are dull and badly painted so the technique is obviously not very professional. For that same price I would have bought a real book rather than this one which is more like a small magazine than a book. ... show more
