Received book in 7 days as estimated. The book was packaged very well. As advertised by the seller, book was in new condition. I'm very happy with purchase!

As good as it gets!
This is a wonderful book on pastel painting. The author is very generous in sharing what he knows about technique and materials, and examples of his own work are beautiful. Since the art of pastel painting is apparently under-appreciated, and enthusiasts love it, there may be other books as good as this one, but after I reviewed it in the library, I didn't feel that I needed to look for anything better.

A must for any seroius aspiring pastel painter
Alan gives concise understanding to the brilliance of His work. This book will be a treasure to anyone trying to advance in the art of pastel making. Alan Flattmann covers all areas of the pastel medium to making of pastels to the quality of them and the best papers and boards to apply them to. The book also covers ways which I never knew to make your own surfaces and boards. I absolutely love this book.

Terrrific learning tool
As a student of pastel who practices in spare time, I found this book to be both educational and inspirational. Flattman provides specifics on his "tools", his process for developing a picture and inspires with his beautiful drawings. I recommend this book for someone who has spent some time working in this medium as well as someone comfortable with drawing. I am inspired and excited by his ideas! That alone makes this book worth buying.

The second time around.
Yes, I bought the same book again. I had the older version and some of the products are no longer available. The second one has more awesome pictures by Mr Flattmann. This is truly the complete book of pastels. Anyone who is setting out on a pastel journey needs to digest this information.

Very good pastel painting reference
Like authors ideas for pastel grounds. Found his explanation of a blended painterly approach to pastel painting and his thoughts on Impressionism with pastels to be very helpful. Written by a superlative pastel artist with many years at his craft and numerous awards; Alan Flattmann.

Entäuscht
Für mich sind es keine guten Bilder, auch verwaschen, ohne großen Ausdruck.
