This is an excellent book for beginners because it covers all the basics in some detail: the kinds of paints and different surfaces to paint on and the techniques to use in different projects. Color photographs show how colors are created by mixing together different pigments or glazes. This can be used as architectural decoration or on furniture and pottery. (
