Classic Still Life Painting shows artists how to create paintings of sparkling brilliance and jewel-like colour that look like they have been lit from within - just like the exquisite paintings of the Renaissance masters of the 16th and 17th centuries. Artists learn techniques similar to those used by Rembrandt, Raphael, Rubens, and other master painters of the past, including using glazing with colours over a subtle under painting of tones to achieve the effect of sunlight passing through stained glass. Through the advent of fast drying mediums, artists learn that they will be able to achieve the same richness and luminosity found in the works of the old masters.
