  Super Guide for Colors

This book will makes your life easier by guiding you in choosing the right ccolor combinations to reach the desired hue.

It is simple to use and accurate; don't waste your art supplies by mixing the wrong colors. Great for people like me, afraid of color.
 
  A must for anyone learning art.

The introduction of this book taught me more on colourmixing than three terms of adult education classes at my local high school. Fantastic and informative, with a useful layout. I would recommend this book to everyone with artistic inclinations.
 
  color mixing bible

This book is the best l've seen. Very easy to understand and excellently laid out making very easy for the beginner to learn the basics of color mixing.
 
  A great book to start with

I've just started oil painting, and this book proved invaluable in helping me sort out the many, many different kinds of paint with their exotic names out there. I generally like to jump in and just experiment, but when I discovered the high price of good oil paints, I decided I needed a little book knowledge first. This book costs about the same as a good tube of paint, and saved me from buying many colors that, before reading the book, I didn't realize I wouldn't really need (at least to start with). It's one of clearest, most concise books I've read (on any subject). Every word is one of wisdom. If you're new to mixing paint, or having trouble figuring it out, get this book (it doesn't really cover HOW to paint though).
