Separate chapters, with easy-to-follow instructions and technical exercises, are devoted to each of the major acrylic painting methods: opaque, transparent, underpainting and overpainting, tempera, textural painting with knife and brush, mixed media techniques, and even varnishing and framing. Of special interest is a section in which leading artists reveal in useful step-by-step demonstrations how they paint various subjects, applying techniques in the book. In addition, the book is richly illustrated with vibrant color and black-and-white reproductions of acrylic paintings by noted contemporary artists, with captions analyzing their methods.
