Take a First Peek in the Pages of Angel Giraldez’s Masterclass
September 12, 2014 by dracs
Last month, master painter Angel Giraldez announced that he would be putting out a new painting Masterclass book, detailing the tips of the trade, to be published next year.
Now Angel Giraldez has published a quick teaser of the book, and details exactly what he plans to do in publishing Masterclass.
"I'm receiving many questions about my painting book and the expectation is large!, thanks everybody.
I saw the statistics of my facebook when I showed the cover and this ad was seen by over 22.000 people.... awesome!
About questions, many people asked me why I don't make my book with Kickstarter or Indiegogo like others painters or companies so the project will be easier but I do not like the easy way.
Also some people offered me their help ( money) for my project, I really appreciate this gesture but sincerely I prefer to make my book myself.
I think that if you work hard and you make an effort, oneself will get the reward.
Years ago I worked from Monday to Sunday, many hours painting, straining and saving small amounts money each month and the way was really difficult but finally when the day arrived and you can see that you dream could come true.....the feeling is really happiness!!!!
Effort, perseverance and hard work are the 3 elements to make real all projects,so this is the reason because I finance my book myself.
October 26 I'll give more information about the book so STAY TUNED but meantime I would like to show this sneak peek for all of you."

This book looks like it will not only be a helpful resource for painters, but also a great display of Angel's fantastic paintings. I have to applaud his decision not to go through crowd funding, as there is something of a feeling that gaming is becoming over-saturated by Kickstarter to some degree. I cannot wait to find out more about how this book is progressing.
What do you think of Angel Giraldez's painting? Do you think the Masterclass book with be a useful resource?
I believe the phrase is “SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY”.
October 26th seems so far away. I’m sure there will be more teasers before then.
Looking forward to it.
Greeeaaaat. So now I can have a hard copy of how much I hate that man. 😉
Seriously, I would love to get my hands on a copy. Mr. Giraldez is probably the best in the business.
I am definitely gona pick this up. Will be great to see exactly how he does it, and the techniques he uses. Then ill just need a few thousand hours of practice, and some serious talent, and ill be away. 🙂
