Well, she tells you that using colors can be difficult and trying to do so in a new medium (paint vs graphit/charcoal) would be even more so, so just start with monochromatic paintings that's about it.

But let's take a step back - what does Juliette teach about exactly how to learn to paint. No step by step demonstration, no information on how to actually apply the colors, nothing that you can actually refer to when you actually get down to it.

But what does Juliette teach you about it? Well, pretty much what I said about it here plus a finished painting where someone applied. Needless to say, the importance of this concept can't be overstated. Once you have it figured out, you can replace the neutrals with whatever colors you like and.bang you have a painting. Cool neutrals recede and warm ones come forward - that means you can create convincing form in your painting simply by learning the application of this concept. One of the things that comes up early in books on painting is the importance of doing warm and cool studies. Now let me give some concrete examples of what I'm talking about. Can't blame her though, because the book IS indeed on the drawing practices followed in ateliers and why they're supposed to be better - if that's what you were going for, then this is the book for you. There is some art history in there, there are paintings by various artists from past and present, there are paragraphs upon paragraphs on why the atelier teaching practices work.but not a lot of actually usable information on how to go about painting. But beyond that its just a lot of almost useless information if you are looking for a solid book on painting. In this book, she has very very good sections on composition and reasonably informative sections in color harmony. She actually belongs to the rare breed of artists who actually know how they do what they do - as opposed to the majority of other artists who just seem to "do it" and hence don't know how to teach their techniques very well.
I was hoping something similar here, but no such luck.ĭon't get me wrong, Juliette is not only a very good artist, but she's also a very good teacher. The book on drawing was actually very informative - not only did it cover theory of drawing and provide detailed examples for the various concepts/techniques, but it also had videos in which the author herself and other artists demonstrated those techniques. Don't get me wrong, Ju I bought this book because I liked a book on classical drawing ("Classical Drawing Atelier - A complete course in traditional studio practice") by the same author.
