Book Synopsis Scratchboard Art by : Robert A. Tiritilli
Download or read book Scratchboard Art written by Robert A. Tiritilli and published by Lucky Sports. This book was released on 2018-06-14 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scratchboard art is a form of direct engraving. The panel starts out solid black and then the artist scratches to expose a layer of white clay under black ink. The working surface is a three-layer medium made up of a 1/8" Masonite panel as a support. Scratchboard has a smooth, absorbent kaolin clay ground that is evenly coated with India ink. Scratch easily with controlled, crisp, clean lines to create exquisitely detailed white-on-black art. Tiritilli's passion for drawing and painting began when he was a young child in Chicago and still remains with him. Self taught, he has painted with oils, work with pen and ink, but now he is concentrating his attention to scratchboard art. Utilizing the scratchboard process is ideal for his "perfectionist" nature. There is no forgiveness in this tedious medium - one wrong scratch or errant stroke - the drawing may be ruined. Scratchboard art is as much of a game as a skill. The skill is to manipulate and/or stimulate the observer. The game is to not let the observer feel they are being manipulated, tricked or coerced. To the artist the creative process is both relaxing and genuinely original in a way beyond description. Without color, this has induced both a challenge and satisfaction for that tests your innate skills. Robert learned years ago that scratchboard art is both a simple and a complex process. It's "Simple" because you can concentrate and focus on the subject while leaving much of the background open. It's "Complex" because there is always the question of what to eliminate; what to accentuate; and what to observe and focus on. The images he draws stimulate the observer's eye and brain in a way that fills in the missing pieces without allowing them to make bold or presumptuous statements. Since the scratchboard technique leaves out parts or substantial parts of all images, it demands the observer to compare the visual to the images' total result. One of the most rewarding ways to collect art is to discover an emerging artist whose artwork you love. Robert A. Tiritilli is one of those artists, whose favorite medium is working with the non-traditional scratchboard because of its sensitivity to touch and its archival qualities.Tiritilli is quickly becoming known as one of the premier wildlife and old American SouthWest scratchboard artists of today. His mastery of the difficult scratchboard medium is evident in the outstanding quality of each of his works. Highly detailed and realistic, his scratchboard art is often mistaken for photographs at a distance. Tiritilli's work is instantly recognizable due to its anatomical accuracy, strong compositions, and sense of light which help bring the viewer into the world of his artwork creations.Scratchboarding is regarded by many artists as one of the most difficult mediums to master as it requires excellent drawing skills and attention to fine details. The medium does not allow for many mistakes and Tiritilli is able to convey many different textures all with just lines or dots. This scratcher's work is filled with intricate and meticulous designs underscored by mesmerizing contrasts and textures. Seeing him slicing his knife across the paper is like pitching a perfect game in baseball-it seems he never makes a mistake while creating something creative and inspiring.To truly appreciate the intricacy of his work, allow yourself to see close-up all the details in his elaborate scratchboard art. Award-winning artist, Robert Tiritilli won 1st PLACE in the drawing category at the SIXTH ANNUAL LA JOLLA ART & WINE FESTIVAL (LJAWF). The judges awarded Tiritilli 1st place due to his outstanding scratchboard and pen and ink artwork. Robert is showing off his blue-ribbon award with his business partner, Charles Hellman. This two-day juried art show (Oct 11 -12 2014) has quickly garnered a reputation as one of the most prestigious art & wine festivals in South California.
Download or read book On Drawing written by Roger Winter and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2002-06 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is for the beginning art major or for the general student who wants to learn more about drawing. Drawing teachers and advanced art students may also find it useful. While this book is about underlying visual principles and not naturalistic styles, it relies heavily on the study of objects, as mutual experiences in that world heighten communication between student and teacher and student and student. Through the study of objects, the student of drawing discovers how to see more intensely, compose, use the materials of drawing, work intuitively, and criticize. The chapters, as arranged, provide a coherent system of study. But regardless of any particular approach, all the ideas presented are meant to help gain an intimate, working knowledge of what the verb 'to draw' actually means. A Collegiate Press book

Book excerpt: In this wordless story, an ordinary day at the beach transforms into an unforgettable adventure. “Many children have wondered what it might be like to be minuscule, and this wordless adventure is accessible even to a quite young beachgoer . . . An imaginative journey.” —Kirkus Reviews When two sister wander the shore on their family beach outing in search of seashells, smooth pebbles, and other sandy treasures, they discover a gigantic seed pod large enough to hold them afloat. Unable to resist, they climb aboard, and before they know it are swept across the ocean to a mysterious island populated by marvelous vegetation and outsized insects. As they explore, their vessel is carried back out to sea, and they are stranded on the grand isle. Curiosity has led them far from home and only an act of daring and resourcefulness will bring them back. This wordless adventure leads the audience through a richly imagined land packed with spectacular flowers and foliage well suited to Willy Wonka’s botanical garden. Samworth combines the natural with the surreal in harmonious colors to create a landscape that promises new discoveries on each visit.
