Book Synopsis How to Create Texture in Your Paintings by : Tony Paul
Download or read book How to Create Texture in Your Paintings written by Tony Paul and published by New Holland Australia(AU). This book was released on 2005 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Without texture, paintings look dull and lifeless, but creating texture takes knowledge and practice to perfect. It can be applied two ways; physical texture, which comes from layering paint or adding sand, gels or plaster; and implied texture, which utilizes the skillful application of color to fool the eye. In this illustrated guide, both methods are taught, with separate chapters addressing landscapes, seascapes, still life and portrait paintings. Two hundred color photographs show textures being applied through knives, brushes, plastic wrap, sponges, and other objects--even a toothbrush--accompanied by detailed reasoning behind the technical instructions for each action.
Book Synopsis Landscape Painting by : Mitchell Albala
Download or read book Landscape Painting written by Mitchell Albala and published by Watson-Guptill. This book was released on 2011-11-15 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because nature is so expansive and complex, so varied in its range of light, landscape painters often have to look further and more deeply to find form and structure, value patterns, and an organized arrangement of shapes. In Landscape Painting, Mitchell Albala shares his concepts and practices for translating nature's grandeur, complexity, and color dynamics into convincing representations of space and light. Concise, practical, and inspirational, Landscape Painting focuses on the greatest challenges for the landscape artist, such as: • Simplification and Massing: Learn to reduce nature's complexity by looking beneath the surface of a subject to discover the form's basic masses and shapes.• Color and Light: Explore color theory as it specifically applies to the landscape, and learn the various strategies painters use to capture the illusion of natural light.• Selection and Composition: Learn to select wisely from nature's vast panorama. Albala shows you the essential cues to look for and how to find the most promising subject from a world of possibilities. The lessons in Landscape Painting—based on observation rather than imitation and applicable to both plein air and studio practice—are accompanied by painting examples, demonstrations, photographs, and diagrams. Illustrations draw from the work of more than 40 contemporary artists and such masters of landscape painting as John Constable, Sanford Gifford, and Claude Monet. Based on Albala's 25 years of experience and the proven methods taught at his successful plein air workshops, this in-depth guide to all aspects of landscape painting is a must-have for anyone getting started in the genre, as well as more experienced practitioners who want to hone their skills or learn new perspectives.
