Summary: Painting Made Easy
Review: Bob Ross' wet on wet technique is perhaps the easiest method of landscape painting commercially available today. This book is a step by step (albeit black and white steps) instructional guide to painting 60 different paintings in the Bob Ross style. Anette Kowalski has been on Bob Ross' Joy of Painting at least once to paint flowers. She has regularly contributed to the other twenty or so books Bob Ross has written. This is primarily an instructional guide using photographs. However, there is an insufficient amount of time spent on technique. That said, this book is excellent for viewers who have seen Ross' show or have painted at least a few paintings to understand the basics of painting as Ross does.

Summary: A Great Book for Ideas
Review: I borrowed this book from the Library and it was fantastic. Bob Ross uses a lot of colors and techniques that really bring his paintings to life. I needed to paint something in that one night and I found the perfect one. A great book when you need ideas on what to paint!

Summary: Excellent book for beginners
Review: I found this book to be a great inspiration, and it gave me the courage to even try painting on my own. At the front of the book are many step by step instructions on how to paint each component of a painting. By putting that together with the instructions for each painting, it is easy to complete a painting of your own.

Summary: A book is for those who are already advanced in oil painting
Review: It should first be pointed out that this book is NOT for the beginning artist and deals only in oil painting technics. Beyond that, it is good, but not the best, in explaining the mechanics of composing mountains, ocean waves, evergreen trees, ponds, creeks and sky. Much more emphasis would needed on terminology and technics if this book were intended for the beginner.
