"I use the scene as a platform to create from, instead of being literal to it. God mad us creative. If we are being literal to a scene and do not interpret with our own voice, we are depriving ourselves of using the talent given to us to its greatest capability."Follow Roger as he travels through like, exploring regions of this country and abroad.

Book Synopsis Daniel E. Greene Studios and Subways by : Daniel Greene
Download or read book Daniel E. Greene Studios and Subways written by Daniel Greene and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2017-12-20 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Celebrating the Life and Art of an American Master! "Here is a picture that demonstrates classical mastery and offers allusions to the history of art, all the while acknowledging the art and issues of its time." -p66 From one of America's most accomplished artists and a pioneer of figurative realism, this unprecedented collection celebrates a body of work spanning six prolific decades. A brilliant collaboration between the artist and art critic Maureen Bloomfield, this impressive monograph features more than 200 of Daniel E. Greene's best oil paintings and pastels--from the underworlds of pool halls, carnivals, and New York subways, to classically posed nudes and the elite culture of auction houses. Also included are his still lifes, self-portraits, and commissioned portraits of such illustrious subjects as Eleanor Roosevelt, Ayn Rand, and astronaut Walter Schirra Jr. Essays offer an intimate look at the techniques, ideas, and influences--contemporary and historical--behind these provocative paintings. Equally fascinating is Greene's personal journey: starting with his early days in Cincinnati and drawing quick-portraits of tourists on Miami Beach...to his time at the Art Students League in New York, his stint in the Army, and his distinguished teaching career at the League and the National Academy of Design. Reflecting a lifetime of dedication and originality, Daniel E. Greene: Studios and Subways is the definitive study of this legendary artist, full of insight and inspiration for artists and art-lovers alike.
Download or read book Living in Color written by Karin M. Higa and published by Heyday. This book was released on 2001 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hideo Date (Hid-day-oh Dah-tay) is a painter ripe for rediscovery. An issei, he once described himself as an artist who scorned the strictly traditional in favor of a unique style, one characterized by an interest in sinuous line and bold color. Trained in Tokyo and Los Angeles, Date associated with avant-garde art circles in pre-World War II Los Angeles. He was a member of the influential West Coast Art Students League and a founding member of the Los Angeles Oriental Artists Group with artist friends Benji Okubo and Tyrus Wong. Together, these artists associated with the influential American painter Stanton MacDonald-Wright, who, in turn, looked to the art of Asia for inspiration. During the 1930s Date worked for the Federal Art Project of the Work Projects Administration (WPA), which commissioned him to paint a mural on Terminal Island in Southern California. The mural was never finished, due to the outbreak of war. Like many other issei and nisei artists, Date's incarceration during the war had an irreparable impact on his life and artistic career. While he continued to paint in camp at Heart Mountain, Wyoming, his career was derailed, and he never had another exhibition after the war. Later, Date resettled in New York City, where he still resides.This book, which pays tribute to the artist's courage, sense of fun, and pursuit of beauty, will at last give this accomplished and daring artist his due. It accompanies a special exhibition of Hideo Date's works at the Japanese American National Museum in Los Angeles from October 26, 2001 to April 21, 2002.
Book Synopsis Stephen Hannock by : Jason Rosenfeld
Download or read book Stephen Hannock written by Jason Rosenfeld and published by Hudson Hills. This book was released on 2009 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stephen Hannock is a contemplative and iconoclastic artist who brings fresh vision and new insight into his studies of light and reflection in the landscape. His work, which echoes the tradition of the Luminist paintings of the 19th century, springs from a sensibility unique among contemporary artists. As in his well-known Oxbow series, his landscape paintings, subtly lit with the rising sun's rays over flooded waters, build their depth with the layers of lacquer Hannock adds; it is this polishing technique, adding as many as twelve layers to his oil paintings, that allows him to play with the reflections of light and shadow over his subjects. At the same time, current events and moments from the artist's life are brought into his pieces in the form of messages, clippings and photographs built into the lacquered layers, which recede into the painting when viewed from a distance, making the work not only a representation of the subject but also a reflection of the life and preoccupations of the artist at a specific point in time. The final presentation is a painting that is deeply human, touching the viewer with its honesty, wit and humor. This richly illustrated monograph includes a wide spectrum of paintings spanning the artist's career, as well as drawings done while traveling in Asia, Europe, and North America, and of friends in music and the arts, at work in their homes and studios. SELLING POINTS: The definitive monograph on this major American painter, whose work is in some of the most important public and private collections in the country Three descriptive essays provide insight into Hannock's work including his major work The Oxbow, After Church, After Cole, Flooded, Green Light (Flooded Rivers for the Matriarchs: E. and A. Mongan), 1999, which hangs in the Metropolitan Museum of Art Never-before-seen works including Northern City Renaissance, Newcastle, England, completed in 2008 for the musician, Sting as a gift to his hometown 223 colour & 9 b/w illustrations

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who would have thought that synthetic acrylic paint, a still-young medium with a plastic polymer base, would become the most versatile and exciting painting medium in the twenty-five years since it appeared? Today, acrylics are being used by more painters—and with more dazzling results—than any other medium. Acrylic Painting Techniques shows you why, as it explores the full range of what you can achieve with these durable, inexpensive, easy-to-use, and fast-drying paints. Author Stephen Quiller has researched the most up-to-date materials available, the many and varied paints and mediums, and he gives good counsel concerning the brushes, palettes, and painting surfaces the acrylic painter ought to have. To prepare the reader to exploit the richness and vibrancy of acrylics, he also offers a lesson on basic color relationships, illustrated with a color wheel he has devised for acrylics. From there he thoroughly explores all the painting techniques that unleash the power of acrylics. In the creation of images, the same acrylic paints can be utilized transparently, translucently, or opaquely. The author shows not only how the techniques of painting in watercolor and oil can be applied using acrylics, but also how their versatility is greatly extended with gels, acrylic gouaches, metallic colors, and gessos. The important differences between the other media and acrylics are carefully explained, and the demonstrations of how different media-including charcoal, Conte crayon, and casein—can be integrated into one composition will spark any painter's creativity. Throughout, Quiller's full-color studies and finished paintings illuminate his text. The reader gains a greater understanding of the use of acrylics by examining the step-by-step development of numerous beautiful works, and then by applying the techniques in a series of exercises at the end of each lesson. Always in search of the ways to communicate in his art a love for the natural landscape, the author shows how he has explored the potential of acrylic painting to achieve the most exciting and satisfying results. His deeper message is that by learning to master this brilliant medium, you will expand upon your own powers of artistic self-expression. • Teaches the tips and techniques used by professional artists in clear, easy-to-follow exercises • Fully illustrated with hundreds of dazzling color reproductions of finished paintings
