despite many great reviews, i found this book to be mostly useless. there’s very little practical information, and the exercises are more “arts and crafts” than art. the section on copying your wallpaper samples are a good example of this. what’s most telling about how unhelpful this book is is that edwards herself doesn’t show us any of her own art in which she uses the ideas she’s writing about. in fact, if you go to what comes closest to being her website, you don’t find ANYTHING that she’s done herself. isn’t this a little strange?
there are much better books on color available. steven quiller’s “color choices” provides excellent, clear, and practical information on color theory and types of color schemes–monochromatic, analogous, complementary, etc and extremely useful info on paints for acrylic, oil, and watercolor painters. if you buy it used, make sure the color wheel/paint chart is included; mine wasn’t so i had to return it. he has updated the color wheel since this book was written. i found the new one online and i believe it’s in his newest book “Watermedia Painting”. my only criticism of “color choices” is that some of his paintings are somewhat garish.

This is not an easy book for the beginner. However, with time and a little patience, one begins to see the brilliance of the work.

The Books of Betty Edwards are very informative for the beginning as well as for the more accomplished artist. It’s like being in class.
