Samenvatting

An inspiring, direct guide to painting beautiful portraits alla prima.



Portraiture is as fascinating and timeless as the human form. This is renowned portrait artist Rob Wareing's highly-anticipated first book, in which he distils decades of experience into insightful, easy-to-follow lessons.

This inspiring, direct guide shows you how to paint beautiful portraits in one sitting. It leads you through all aspects of portraiture, from the first steps of finding and lighting your model, through the practical aspects of mixing for value and colour, to the sitting itself.

If you have ever wanted to paint portraits, this is the book for you.

  • Explains which paints, brushes and tools to use
  • Leads you step-by-step through example portraits
  • Includes information on composition, drawing and backgrounds.


Rob Wareing has built a formidable international reputation as a portrait artist. This is his first book, and here he draws on over 40 years' experience to provide a complete guide to painting portraits in oils.

In Rob's view, the most effective way to capture character is by working from life rather than photographs, and to follow the alla prima method to create a painting in one sitting.

Starting with a fascinating overview of the subject, Rob then guides the reader through the materials he uses, explains how to pose and light the sitter, and how to prepare the work area before starting to paint.

This is followed by detailed coverage of design and composition, the importance of proportions, and the painting process itself – from colour mixing through to finishing a painting without over-working. With clear, step-by-step demonstrations and numerous examples of the author's work throughout, this book provides both an expert guide to portrait painting and a unique insight into the working methods of one of the world's leading portrait painters.
