Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Improve your perception and use of colour in oil paint and gain many practical insights into techniques, set up and more in this fantastic book from the artist John Collier. Broken down into sections on the Practical and Theory of painting Collier is particularly useful for those looking to paint (or study) in his own Pre-Raphaelite style, although any student of oil painting would do well to study his techniques. The section on Theory discusses colour in a way very different to modern teachers, so while it may be difficult to understand for some others may find that it suits their mind and opens up new concepts. Collier was particularly well known for his use of colour, portraits and history painting, and his skills in these areas shine through in the advice he gives in A Manual of Oil Painting. This makes this little book a must read for those interested in the art of his period from both practical and academic perspectives.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " 'The art of painting in oils, ' says the author of this little handbook, "is a very difficult one, and not the least of its difficulties consists in the great uncertainty that exists as to the proper methods to be pursued." So far as results recommend a particular method, Mr. Collier's modus operandi is abundantly recommended. His system, as set forth here, is a modification of Mr. Poynter's, from whose teaching in the Slade School it is directly derived. But Mr. Collier does not restrict students to his own method, and in this manual he gives those of other artists, as well as his own, and the rules in force in the South Kensington Schools. His own method is a direct one, and beginners in the art of oil painting will receive valuable assistance from the suggestions he gives. The work is divided into two parts, dealing respectively with practice and theory. The second part is as interesting to the general reader as it is helpful to the student; for, besides containing the rules governing aerial perspective, it includes a very lucid description of Young's undulatory theory of light; -- a theory which explains Achromatopsia and other puzzling anomalies in colour sensation." --The Ruskin Reading Guild Journal, Volume 1

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Science of Painting Oil painting began in the fifteenth century. We are not here going to enter into that great discussion, which is not yet finished, as to whether Oil painting was really discovered by Van Eyck, but perhaps we may venture to say that its discovery was really caused by a mistake. In the first place, neither John Van Eyck nor his brother ever acquainted anybody with their processes, and their secrets died with them and if report is to be credited, they were even so jealous that they stabbed one prying individual who ventured into their studio. In vain distinguished artists, attracted by the fame Of the two brothers, came from Italy to Bruges they could learn nothing, except that the belief spread that Van Eyck owed the exceeding brilliancy Of his colours to the use Of Oil.
