LOMBARD, IL, August 22, 2010
Chad Wooters is a professional architect and artist in Lombard, Illinois, who has recently self-published a book on oil painting.Thinking like an architect, he applied his construction management experience to oil painting. "The traditional way to teach painting is to focus on a specific style or technique" says Wooters. He explains "I broke the painting process down into a list of discrete tasks, just like I would do for a building project. That allows individual painters to assemble various skills in a painting process that matches their temperament and personal vision."
In his book, Wooters presents four basic oil painting techniques that transcend the strict demands of historical methods. As he explains, "I learned both Venetian and Flemish techniques, but was never completely comfortable using either exclusively. It took years for me to find my own way. Hopefully, my book will help other painters find their voice faster than I did."
Wooters's book is titled "Fast & Flexible: Use the Oil Painting Techniques You Already Know for Speed and Results." It will be available September 1, 2010 in paperback through Amazon.com or can be purchased directly from the author at http://www.fastandflexible.US. Sample chapters can be viewed for free online at http://www.chadwooters.com.
