Awesome introduction to micro painting from a leader in the style. Thank you Netgalley and Quarto Publishing Group – Walter Foster for access to this digital arc. I think this title makes the perfect gift; the materials are so easy to gather, its small and can easily travel. I can see making a whole little set included with this book as a gift. I have watched Remington Robinson's art take over the internet. I was fascinated with his style and wondered how he set up his scenes, his work is always well composed. This title opened the oyster, and really expanded on the nuanced artists ways. A delightful read bound to make an impact on my skill. Recommend it for all ages interested in art. Excellent pictures, a masterful presentation.

Very beautiful paintings. I remmeber seeing the altoid paintign a longtime ago. Few minths ago I saw the pool painting. ANd now I looked up some videos. Its fun to be able to relate to the paintings - the poppy one.. the mixed colors in the box look so cool too. The instructions and comments on the creative process are engaging. Monochromatic exercises. Snow colros and seeing details. composition, so many things to learn. Just this morning saw an acrylic painting layer by layer and wondered how the artists put in so much time and effort to finish a painting. The altoid one wont take that long.
