"Oil painting techniques and materials" is written by Harold Speed, who is a professional painter and painting theorist.

This book is one of the best books out there for painting. It offers a wontderful insight to the craft of painting in the classical way. I read it several times and I keep on learning from it step by step. In this book, Harold Speed explained nearly everything that an oil painter needs to know. I think it's very informative, and a great learning tool for painting learners. If you are learning painting now, then this book is a must for you.
