This book covers thirty-two of the world's best-known artists pictures for children to learn the basics about art. The artists lives are explained which helps youngsters understand the artists works. The information is presented so as to stimulate young artists to explore their own artistic abilities. Many different styles are represented with brief explanations of what a particular style was like, however the adult, teacher or parent might have to further explain certain concepts with more clarity by using other visual examples. There is, however, a helpful glossary. The accompanying biographies for each artist is very brief with even more selective facts regarding their lives. Artists include Van Gogh, Gauguin, Picasso, Monet, Degas, Turner, Friedrich, Goya, Botticelli, Vermeer, Michaelangelo, Van Eyck, Magritte, Warhol, Matisse and O'Keefe amongst others. Curiously enough not one of the great artists Mexico has produced is mentioned or profiled. The book also covers basic information about the actual process and the materials used. This is a good book for the elementary school student or for parents to buy to share the reading experience with prior to them attending school.
