Much to learn from this Master.33 of 33 people found the following review helpful. Back to BasicsBy LeeI owned this book a few years ago and sold it on . I currently have a Charles Reid DVD and have watched it more than once. This DVD stirred my appreciation for him all over again, so went looking for his books on . His lesson on contour drawing in this book is so good. All persons who strive to be better artists should practice this method. I learned contour drawing many years ago using Nicolaide's "The Natural Way to Draw". It is a basic method that is sure to improve anyone's art. With Reid, he carries the philosophy of contour drawing into his use of the paint brush, not lifting it up and I think this is what makes his technique so individual and it is unique. I won't sell this book now that I have it again. If for no other reason I really like that early chapter on contour technique.3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. if you have a chance to thumb through it and like what it has to offer it could be of ...By Ami e. BeattyThe book is a workshop on how to draw interior and exterior details of your shapes an effort to make your work come together. This book is mostly a drawing book with a specific technique--very little on painting. Think the title is misleading. Kind of one dimensional if you ask me-threw me off any other titles by the author. On a positive note, if you have a chance to thumb through it and like what it has to offer it could be of good value. I'm always in favor of technique books in workshop form

Pulling Your Paintings Together is a book about making connections: interweaving lines, shapes, and colors; moving backgrounds into foregrounds, positive shapes into negative ones, lost edges into found boundaries-all with the intention to create a painting or drawing that is a harmonious unit, with all elements subordinated to the effect of the whole. The medium is unimportant. Watercolor, oil, pen-and-ink, charcoal-all are here, each with its own set of rules and techniques. Yet each is surprisingly unfixed in its treatment. Oil can be handled like watercolor, charcoal like oil, pen lines can be smudged and softened, solid boundaries left broken and open. Because even between media there are relationships and interconnections. All is woven together, one into the other, media, treatments, brushstrokes-like the golden threads of a giant tapestry. Pulling Your Paintings Together is a wonderful addition to Charles Reid's library of art technique books. Charles Reid has long been considered a master painter. His paintings are fresh and spontaneous, displaying his profound understanding of light and color and expert drawing ability. Reid was born in Cambridge, New York, and studied art at the University of Vermont and the Art Students League of New York. He has won numerous awards, including the Purchase Prize at the American Academy of Arts and Letters, the National Academy of Design, and the American Watercolor Society. In 1980 he was elected to the National Academy of Design. Public collections of his work include Smith College, Yellowstone Art Center, Brigham Young College, Roche Corporation, and the National Academy of Design. In addition to painting, Reid teaches workshops around the world. He has written eleven books on painting in watercolor and oil.
