Name of book: Bringing
Textures to Life
Author: Joseph Sheppard
ISBN: 0-89134-485-3
General topic: How to paint textures
Review: Written in 1993 by the artist Joseph
Sheppard, there are 50 pages of detailed step by step painted illustrations
with a variety of subject matter from sea shells, antique dolls,
flowers, vegetables, over 106 subjects to explore. Sheppard
has ten paintings he has dissected through this book writing
each step in very easily terminology. The paintings are
large in content and have enough variety for whatever subject
the artist is interested in. Mr. Sheppard studied with
Jacques Maroger, the former technical director of the Louvre,
and now lives in Italy where he owns an art studio.
