Achieving Depth & Distance by Kitty Gorrell
This book was purchased by my art instructor for students after I received my copy and followed the steps given for art lessons. I appreciated the detailed lessons, to the canvas required, the color amounts needed, and the size brushes to use. These pictures are filled with light and depth perception. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to paint, but needing the extra help.

Achieving Depth & Distance by Kitty Gorrell
This book was exactly what I was looking for. It gives excellent examples and step by step instructions on achieving my desired results. I would recomend this book to anyone wanting a little extra help with laying out and learning how to determine picture depth.

Acheiving depth &distance
Amature- worse than the guy with The Happy Little Trees!!!!! Poor use of colors.Child- Like All of the colors used are of poor quality. Nothing of interest in the color palette. The grass is green, the water is blue, the sky is blue. How about really looking at your subject matter before writing a book!
