Thank you -- excellant,
By A Customer
This review is from: Art Of Theorem Painting (Paperback)
Since I was a self taught theorem painter and was very hungry for history of this art. I was pleased to see the work done by the authors. I highly recommend this book for anyone interested in doing theorems. I especially enjoyed the work they did on the history of this art. I am the only theorem painter in a 200 mile radius of my home. To find a book about it was exciting.

The Art Of Theorem Painting: A History and Complete Instruct,
By dlboyer@att.net - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Art Of Theorem Painting (Hardcover)
I am a theorem painter, and I found this book to be very helpful in learning the history of theorem painting and also seeing pictures of antique theorems. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in theorems, whether you are a theorem painter or a collector of theorems. The book also includes patterns for those who wish to cut their own stencils. I know that this book is hard to obtain, but if you get a chance to purchase it, I know that you won't regret it.

Definitely a FIVE STAR production!!,
By citizen fact checker - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Art of Theorem Painting (Paperback)
This is the book for you if you want to learn theorem painting, the types of supplies to purchase and where to purchase them and the history of theorem painting. You will find numerous pages of patterns of stencils you can copy to paint your own theorems, and you will find a very useful bibliography if you wish to get involved in further research. Photographs of the completed theorems are detailed and bright and the whole book, by itself, can lead to a revival of the art of theorem painting.On a more personal note, I have a few yards of light beige velvet that I've had for years and always wondered what to do with it until this book arrived: Now I know the velvet has only been waiting for me to find the right book, this one--which is indeed first-rate. I highly recommend it! |
