The Complete Book of Pottery Making (Chilton’s Creative Crafts Series) Review
I reccomend this book to both begginers and experienced potters. It has many step-by-step black and white photos with great instructions. The photos have helped me perform techniques better and properly. There is a section on every method of working with clay and gives you solutions to problems. This book also gives great guides on buying clay, making a work space and many other opinions on how to become a professional potter. I don’t have a question about pottery that can’t be answered in this book.

Expressive Oil Painting: An Open Air Approach to Creative Landscapes Review
The learning starts the moment you open the book. Everything is explained for a person like me: the complete beginner. I am slow, and that is okay because the book lets you pace yourself. There is no hurrying. You get what you need to know and also have the time to acquire the exact equipment you need in order to begin the process. I have had wonderful success in performing the first example. This one is the most important to me because it is the stage where I am getting to learn the basics. Painting is compared to sketching and sketching is emphasized as important to the painting process. All of this was done at great thought and care by the author.
Thank You Mr. Durkee for a fine book which explains the entire process for the beginner. This book alone, plus some basic tools and materials will have you well on your way to painting and expressing not just what nature says it is, but how you feel about what you see in nature. Be ready to learn creative freedom as well as how to use the canvas and oil paints to bring your paintings alive.
