I have written several best-selling practical art books, and produced a number of
art instruction videos, on the subject of pastel painting. The books and videos are
very comprehensive, covering materials, techniques, and demonstrations. I write
as I speak, so the books are very "user friendly", with lots of illustrations, and
clear, easy-to-follow text, which isn't hard work to plough through!! The videos
are packed with information, because I explain everything thoroughly...you cannot
fail to learn!
Please note, I no longer sell these books directly through my website, but you can
still buy them at these online bookstores: www.amazon.co.uk or www.teachingart.co.uk
