Every year many highly skilled professionals in the painting trade attempt to go into business on their own. Even though they may be excellent painters, almost all of them fail. They fail because they don't know how to run a painting enterprise as a business. Knowing the trade is necessary but not enough. This book teaches the professional how to succeed in business from the initial organization to the most complex management skills. It provides easy-to-follow lessons in all the needed methods of management in the business of painting. (See the table of contents on its website, THEBUSINESSOFPAINTING.COM.)The author is a college graduate, a veteran of army's counterintelligence corps, a former public high school history teacher, and apprentice painter in his teens who thought he knew a lot about the trade. (he didn't).Even while teaching school he ran a sideline business in house painting and hired experienced painters to work for him while he was busy in the school. During school vacations he worked alongside of his more skilled employees and learned from them a lot more of the trade. He also picked up lots of management acumen by way of trial and error and quizzing other business people who always seemed willing to pass along their knowledge. This seemingly foolish approach to a career as a painting contractor did actually work but it took years to perfect. Following the guidance of this book can allow the professional painter to bypass all the mistakes made by the author in his progress to success. the business he started by doing the work by himself now employs fifty painters and works in six states.the author decided very early that he disliked working for homeowners and moved into commercial work where quality requirements were high and most of the customers were honest. As of this publication date, the author is now in his twentieth year of retirement.His teaching background influenced his urge to write this book and he sincerely hopes and expects that all painting contractors who follow its advice can succeed.

This work includes forewords by Sir Liam Donaldson and Peter Wheeler, Chief Medical Officer, Department of Health; Dean, College of Fine Arts, University of Sharjah, United Arab Emirates. Appreciating art can help doctors build empathy with patients and reduce stress. By stimulating thought and reflection through paintings, this concise and engaging text invites readers to examine their motivation, their profession and their world. This exciting new book provides vital refreshment for doctors and medical students, lecturers and tutors in medical humanities, and healthcare professionals with mentoring roles. "John and Erica Middleton guide the reader gently along the interface between art and medicine, in their own inimitable style. Whether in search of an introduction to the world of art, or wishing to consider the role that the formal study of art might play in professional development, reading this book is likely to prove rewarding. Turning these pages will help doctors to appreciate afresh the window through which they look upon the world" - Sir Liam Donaldson, in his Foreword. "Great art provides insights into the human condition. If through a systematic engagement with art and literature as an extension of their medical practice, GPs can apply those insights to themselves (know thyself), they can equally apply them when dealing with patients. Doctors and patients are people, subjects. Intersubjectivity is perhaps a better word than empathy to define what this book seeks to promote, the capacity of the doctor to enter into and inhabit the patient's subjectivity" - Peter Wheeler, in his Foreword.
