This detailed, user-friendly oil painting workbook is a companion to Patrick's Sci-fi & Fantasy Oil Painting Techniques, and features previously unpublished artworks. Patrick leads us into his studio once again to explore further the art of layers, blending, and glazing with oil paints, while explaining step-by-step how these techniques can also be applied in digital art. With his ever-evolving use of technique, Patrick explores methods for painting various textures - from fabric and fur to gold and flesh - and demonstrates ways to work solvent free.
The sheer scale and breadth of Patrick's experience, and the wealth of invaluable information he shares, means that no artist, art lover, or student should be without this volume on their bookshelves.

Schweitzer Klassifikation
Patrick J. Jones is an award-winning sci-fi and fantasy artist and teacher. His work is collected and published worldwide, and his client list includes such companies as Disney, Lucasfilm and Roc books. Patrick grew up in the city of Belfast, Northern Ireland, during the violent 30-year conflict known as "the Troubles". Influenced by artists Boris Vallejo and Frank Frazetta, he spent his days in the sanctuary of rooftops, drawing and dreaming of becoming a fantasy artist, to the din of street riots below. Patrick later spent two years in the merchant navy, after which he moved to London and worked as an illustrator for 15 years before travelling the world once more. Today, Patrick is settled in Brisbane, Australia, where he lives with his wife Cathy and their two scruffy dogs. When he's not painting, he teaches art at two universities in the city. He is the author of several books, including Sci-fi and FantasyOil Painting Techniques.
