Download or read book Handbook to Pastel (Classic Reprint) written by Marie Guerin and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-09 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Handbook to Pastel Pastel, from the Latin pastella, a little stick, is a kind of painting executed with soft crayons of various colours. These crayons are made of a paste containing one or more colours mixed with more or less white; for, in this painting, by mixing white with the other tones beforehand, an infinite variety of tints is produced, each colour diminishing by almost imperceptible gradations, from the most intense shade to pure white; and several colours are ground together to form a scale of greys, or broken tints. In fact, it is painting with coloured crayons, and there is no better preparation for it than the making of charcoal, red chalk, or crayon studies. One may even begin by studies in charcoal, worked over with pastel. This kind of painting is both the easiest and the most pleasing. To reproduce the bloom on beautiful fruit, the fresh colouring of complexion, or the charm of landscape, nothing serves better than the powder of these many coloured crayons.

Book Synopsis Painting Materials by : R. J. Gettens
Download or read book Painting Materials written by R. J. Gettens and published by Courier Corporation. This book was released on 2012-09-26 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The combined training and experience of the authors of this classic in the varied activities of painting conservation, cultural research, chemistry, physics, and paint technology ideally suited them to the task they attempted. Their book, written when they were both affiliated with the Department of Conservation at Harvard's Fogg Art Museum, is not a handbook of instruction. It is, instead, an encyclopedic collection of specialized data on every aspect of painting and painting research. The book is divided into five sections: Mediums, Adhesives, and Film Substances (amber, beeswax, casein, cellulose, nitrate, dragon's blood, egg tempera, paraffin, lacquer, gum Arabic, Strasbourg turpentine, water glass, etc.); Pigments and Inert Materials (over 100 entries from alizarin to zinnober green); Solvents, Diluents, and Detergents (acetone, ammonia, carbon tetrachloride, soap, water, etc.); Supports (academy board, dozens of different woods, esparto grass, gesso, glass, leather, plaster, silk, vellum, etc.); and Tools and Equipment. Coverage within each section is exhaustive. Thirteen pages are devoted to items related to linseed oil; eleven to the history and physical and chemical properties of pigments; two to artificial ultramarine blue; eleven to wood; and so on with hundreds of entries. Much of the information — physical behavior, earliest known use, chemical composition, history of synthesis, refractive index, etc. — is difficult to find elsewhere. The rest was drawn from such a wide range of fields and from such a long span of time that the book was immediately hailed as the best organized, most accessible work of its kind. That reputation hasn't changed. The author's new preface lists some recent discoveries regarding pigments and other materials and the pigment composition chart has been revised, but the text remains essentially unchanged. It is still invaluable not only for museum curators and conservators for whom it was designed, but for painters themselves and for teachers and students as well.

This invaluable handbook explains: · The 5 components of the perfect thank-you note. · How to keep track of who gave what (and why you need to hang onto the list even after the thank-you notes are sent). · How to respond to special situations like a group gift, an absent relative, or a late thank-you. · Model thank-you notes for more than 85 common wedding gifts—from antiques to waffle irons! The model letters can be used as they are, altered to fit individual needs, or referred to as examples. Werner offers not only an effortless, entertaining, and knowing course in etiquette, she also provides the new bride with what is perhaps the very best gift of all -- a super time-saving aid during a very busy and exciting period in her life.
