The wonderful Bouguereau

Hi Jennifer,

Whilst looking for information on Maxfield Parrish's painting and glazing techniques, I stumbled upon the first of the 2 Bouguereau sites. I am, for want of a better term, almost reduced to tears, by both the sheer mastery of his technique and my level of ignorance of his work. Do you know of any books or instruction on his method, particularily the beautiful naturalistic skin tones he uses?

I would be eternally grateful for any info.

Thanks again,
Patrick
