Light and Surface cover

Visible Light: The Artist's Complete Manual is a comprehensive guide to the visual manifestations of light, essential for every artist regardless of the medium and yet so scarcely exposed in the existing textbooks. Put shortly, in its two dedicated parts the book thoroughly answers the big questions of “Why things look the way they look?” and “How to make them look better?”.
