Review: Best acrylic abstract book! - This is the best book on abstract art. Plenty of great examples of every concept presented. I'm in art school and this book goes even more indept without being complicated.
Review: Great book for learning abstract - I really appreciate this book - Davies has a clear and insightful point of view on how to build the skills and emotional depth for creating abstract art. Her tips and suggestions are tangible and well thought out, and the illustrations make each page more interesting and the concepts easier to understand. I see reviews complaining about paper quality, etc. This is not a coffee table book. It’s an instructional guide. The format, paper choice & design are well suited for this purpose. An excellent investment and an enjoyable read.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great book for learning abstract
*by K***L on January 16, 2024*

I really appreciate this book - Davies has a clear and insightful point of view on how to build the skills and emotional depth for creating abstract art. Her tips and suggestions are tangible and well thought out, and the illustrations make each page more interesting and the concepts easier to understand. I see reviews complaining about paper quality, etc. This is not a coffee table book. It’s an instructional guide. The format, paper choice & design are well suited for this purpose. An excellent investment and an enjoyable read.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good introductory material with a few minor issues
*by T***R on June 10, 2025*

This book is relatively complete, and a good introduction to elements of painting and composition and mark making in general. I have been studying art for quite a while, and it didn't meet my needs. One quick criticism is that whatever program the author used to de-saturate the value scales on pp 46-47 isn't doing what she thinks it is doing, that is why she is getting "surprising" results. There is no way that Hansa Yellow Medium is the same value as Cerulean Blue Chromium. Also, cad red dark is not the complement of pthalo green, rather alizarin crimson is, and her whole color wheel is outdated. Modern painters embrace hansa yellow, magenta, and pthalo blue as the primaries. However, in general, with the above caveats, this is a lot of useful introductory material in one place.
