Review
"Susan Sarback's unique and fresh approach to teaching color fills a void that seems to exist in most art schools. I have found a significant change in my own use and understanding of color after participating in several of her workshops. She is extremely articulate and has a gift for making what could be a complicated concept very clear and easy to apply." -- Julie Johnson Olson, Instructor, Academy of Art University, San Francisco, CA

I purchased Susan's first book when it came out and recently picked up this second book. The book is really excellent. I have been painting for 40 years and have found the info in these books extremely helpful. Several years ago I purchased 'The Impressionist Landscape' by Lois Griffel. Also indispensible. All of these three books may be the most important books in my library of hundreds of books. If you want to learn basics in color application from pure color Griffel's book is a great book to start with. Sometimes I think that Sarback's books are a little more advanced because she is not specific about what colors to use when laying in a color. Lois Griffel spells out exactly what color she used. That is why Lois's book is important to mention.Both of these painters learned from Henry Henche in the Famous Cape Cod School of Art and when you read these books you will find that they both have very different painting methods and color theory. And that's OK. Lois Griffel recently, just last year, sold the Cape Cod School building in MA and move west, and this is how close to the vest both of these astounding, living, artists are. Henche must have taught thousands of students, but these are the only books that I know of that teach oil painting in the original Monet method that was delivered to Hawthorn from Monet's studio apprentice directly.All three of these books will start you painting color blocks. Copy the demonstrations, then set up your own blocks in real life. Start each book from page one and two and read each page. It is just like being at a workshop. I have done this with many books and have grown in leaps and bounds. Although it is not my style to paint like this, you will find that this color theory can carry over into any style or form of art you create. Color is so important, and if you are just starting out, or have been painting for years.......These books will blast you into a new direction in which you will never return.
Finally I found the book that provides excellent help and hints for those of us who love to dabble in paint but are not really gifted as artists and need a good deal of guidance. Sarbeck's detailed explanation about the different ways to see and paint colors was a real eye opener. I had been taking painting classes for some time but was becoming increasingly frustrated with the teacher who kept talking about getting the values corrrect. After reading Sarbeck's explanations I understand that the teacher was thinking of color theory primarily, whereas I wanted to play around with colors. So the book has been liberating in many ways. The examples used are beautiful and the demonstrations very helpful. I just wish there had been more included. All in all, this is a beautiful and instructive book. I'm going to have to buy a replacement soon since the one I have now has become rather spotted with both oil and pastel smears!
An amateur artist for about 60 years, I've finally decided to get serious. Studies with Chuck Ceraso, a local Colorado student of Henry Hensche, were interesting, which led to the purchase and study of a book by another Hensche student, Lois Griffel. While buying Griffel's book on Amazon, some other books came to my attention, including this one by Susan Sarback, so I ordered it. I can only say, "Wow!" She does a great job of explaining Hensche's theories on color perception and expression. The theories are illustrated with many beautiful color reproductions of her own works and others, including a number of progressive demonstrations which show the steps from blocking in color masses to applying final details. The whole is very impressive and inspirational -- her words, the paintings, even the overall design of the book. Certainly a live orientation to this style would be a good supplement, but an intelligent artist who is open to exploring color could gain great skill from studying this book alone. I thumb through it frequently for the sheer joy of encountering the illustrations. And yes, if I were marooned on a desert island, this could be my sole art book -- although a couple of compact, well-illustrated books on Picasso and Klee wouldn't be used for firewood either...
We were told to buy this book, because a friend took a course from her. She has her classes close by in a near by town. However, it was different to understand her section of section colors in patterns. She does not tell you the colors that she is using in her examples and she only has a few demonstrations. Her oil paintings look like pastel. Her classes and videos are very expensive that is way I bought Bob Rohm book titled The Painterly Approach. He lists his colors and has many step by step examples. And, his paintings look like oil paintings.
I first borrowed this book from a student, and immediately purchased a copy for myself. It is very similar to Lois Griffel's book, which I have used both in my own work and as a teaching resource, for years, but does also contain some different and very well organized information, especially about the author's own experience with different "schools" of painting/seeing. The book would be most useful to impressionistic painters/teachers--it is not a book about "realism" or painting with local color. It contains many examples of the exact same scene painted at different times of day and in different weather. This is a good book, well organized, worth having if impressionism is in your blood.
I have learned so much from this book already!!! I am a pastel artist and have purchased many art books and always find things to learn and to enjoy, but this has been the best so far!!!! I have spent a few hours reading and absorbing the suggestions in this book and have seen immediate results in my work. The way to scan what you're looking at and see more colors is quite astonishing! I find that I do it constantly. It is not a "how to" in the typical sense but more a way of training your whole body to relax and take in more of what you are seeing. Try it! You'll not be disappointed. I can't wait to go back and read more....Well worth the price!
