Daily Painting: Paint Small and Often To Become a More Creative, Productive, and Successful Artist Review: An excellent book to motivate the artist in you - Now this is a unique book. A collection of short stories on many artists and their tips and recommendations to improve your art. The author advises to improve your art by painting “small and often” or get into that habit of painting quickly, frequently, and for short periods. Whatever your medium, you must practice to improve. Each chapter contains an important element of successful artistry. I found chapter 6 to be very impactful. Drawing and proportion. I struggle with this. The author provides useful tips here, including use of a viewfinder. I never did understand why that would be helpful, now I do!! This is a clever and valuable book. Seriously, give it a chance. My first impression was that this was not going to be very valuable for me because I only paint watercolor. It’s not about that. It’s not about what you paint or what you use, it’s how to get better at it. Buy this book and read it! You can thank me later. Review: Excellent art resource! - This book is among my best art resources! Painting small has removed fear and anxiety and helped me paint often and joyfully. I love the layout of the book with tons of paintings and all the essential wisdom I needed to improve my work. Highly recommend! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (2,297) | | Dimensions | 7.91 x 0.51 x 8.5 inches | | Edition | Illustrated | | ISBN-10 | 0770435335 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0770435332 | | Item Weight | 1.25 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 192 pages | | Publication date | November 4, 2014 | | Publisher | Watson-Guptill | ## Images ![Daily Painting: Paint Small and Often To Become a More Creative, Productive, and Successful Artist - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91SfAJCpbcL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An excellent book to motivate the artist in you *by F***️ on July 12, 2025* Now this is a unique book.

Painting small has removed fear and anxiety and helped me paint often and joyfully. I love the layout of the book with tons of paintings and all the essential wisdom I needed to improve my work. Highly recommend! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Inspiring, motivating and filled with tips *by P***A on January 31, 2015* Inspiration works in strange ways. One artist inspires another, who inspire others. In Daily Painting, author and artist Carol Marine talks about how she was inspired by Duane Keiser who's another daily painter. So since 2006, Marine has been painting daily, and selling her work online. Marine talks about her experience on painting daily, where she finds inspiration and subjects to draw, techniques involved and how you can sell your paintings online. It's very inspiring and insightful. It certainly gives me the if-she-can-do-it-so-can-I feeling. Actually the book covers more technical topics. Here are the contents. 1. How daily painting changed my life (and can change yours too!) 2. My materials 3. Subject matters 4. Value 5. Color mixing 6. Drawing and proportion 7. Composition 8. Staying fresh and loose with oil 9. Fighting artist's block 10. How to photograph and edit small paintings 11. Tips for better online sales I really like the idea of painting small. Somethings the size of a blank canvas can be intimidating. It's difficult for a small painting to match a big one in terms of impact, but it's likely to sell better because it's more affordable. All these info are mentioned in the book. It also includes a chapter on subject matter that talks about the kind of subjects that work well on a small canvas. Marine uses oil as her main medium. However her tips and techniques can often apply to other media as well except for things specific to oil, such as wiping a canvas and starting over again. Throughout the book, there are many other artists being featured with examples of their paintings, sometimes with interviews, such as in the latter chapter on dealing with artist block. All paintings featured look beautiful and inspiring. The best part about the book is it shows you the possibility of selling your work online. It's a model that works for Marine and other painters. I've went ahead and check out the listing of other artists and her paintings on eBay and some other websites and can see people buying at the listed price. It's great to see other artists make a living using this method and it's something that anyone can get into. It's certainly very motivating. This is a great book for all artists. Highly recommended.
