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.
Download or read book Rooftop Soliloquy written by Roman Payne and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2009-10 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written entirely in Paris over a two year span during which its author lived every conceivable metropolitan passion and inspiration, Rooftop Soliloquy is a novel as vibrant and alive as the city where it was given seed and a place to grow. The first-person narrative follows the adventures and misadventures of a mysterious individual: an artist, fl neur, composer of operas, and incorrigible rake, who wanders the districts of Paris seducing girls, drinking wine, and looking for that new idea with which to complete his 'hero's tale.' Rooftop Soliloquy is remarkable for the ease and pleasurable pace of the story. The reader is led on a joyful path that wanders from the urban picaresque tale, to the pastoral courtly or chivalric romance, to the Homeric-style epic. More information at www.parisquest.com.

Book excerpt: Poetry. Translated from the Portuguese by Alexis Levitin. In this first-ever bilingual edition of CAGE, eminent Brazilian poet Astrid Cabral is an insightful and irreverent guide to the natural world, leading the beguiled reader through landscapes of rare and surprising beauty. From serpents to seahorses, and from the wilds of the Amazon to the orderly realm of suburbia, these poems urge us to consider our surroundings with empathy and attentiveness. Cabral's complex, multifaceted verse glints with compressed energy, offering a densely layered vision in which simplicity is deceptive and conclusions are likely to be double-edged. A poet of considerable imaginative gifts and metaphysical flair, Astrid Cabral has produced a work of cauterizing beauty. In this perfectly orchestrated volume, each poem enriches and expands the poems that surround it.
Book Synopsis East of Goodbye by : Richard Claude Valdez
Download or read book East of Goodbye written by Richard Claude Valdez and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2016-04-26 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a Great Loss Here There is a great loss here, Perhaps unaware The eagle flies alone over the tops of mountains, Leaving its mate behind to settle the score of unitys prize Aloneness. That shriek that tears the night-sky, Calling back memorys Gentleness. That peat and pith within the wombs Oneness. In silence its wings dip behind the mountains arch, Falling away In feathered farewell to Goodbyes endlessness. Richard Claude Valdez Bidding farewell to anyone or anything is never easy. In his third volume of poems, Richard Claude Valdez shares verse that pays tribute to goodbyes through separation, disconnection, and death, all echoed through nature and the human heart. While immersed in a lyrical struggle between youthful passion and the age of compassion, Valdez reflects on love, joy, sorrow, regret, passion, and hope amid the after-effects of an unforgiving circumstance, remembrances scarred on an ancient landscape, a miracle cradled in comfort, a misty memory of a carefree dance, and dishonor heaped upon a generous spirit. East of Goodbye shares thoughtful poems that explore and reflect on the many aspects of separation while inspiring others to look inward and study their own journey through life.
