"Absolutely delightful. Those two words are a perfectly fitting description of a readable, approachable and highly enticing new 'how-to' book about painting by Cleveland artist Timothy Callaghan." -- "Steven Litt, The Plain Dealer""Painter Callaghan challenges readers to complete one painting a day for six weeks. Aspiring artists are encouraged to draw inspiration from the people, places, and objects they encounter every day. The 42 exercises (one per day) are meant to be done in a quick, spontaneous fashion and on a small scale. Chapters are divided among three sections--still life, landscape, and portraiture--and provide many fresh approaches along the way. Successful examples completed by the author and six other artists generously illustrate this guide. VERDICT This course-in-a-book can help the busy hobbyist painter build or re-establish the discipline crucial to any creative practice." -- "Library Journal"
