Ann Templeton is proud to announce her new book, Color and Beyond. Unlike her first book, The Art of Ann Templeton: A Step Beyond, which is a collector's item; Color and Beyond is a how-to-paint book, based on her forty-year career as an acclaimed artist and teacher. However, it is also a "step beyond," going deeper into the art of color than is possible in her workshop lectures, organizing her approach to painting an orderly set of concepts and techniques. --
