Download or read book Sketchbook written by Timothy O'Donnell and published by Fair Winds Press. This book was released on 2011-09 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores influential designers’ sketchbooks as a truer reflection of a designer’s thought processes, preoccupations, and problem-solving strategies than can be had by simply viewing finished projects. Highly personal and idiosyncratic, sketchbooks offer an arena for unstructured exploration, a space free from all budgetary and client constraints. Visually arresting objects in their own right, this book aims to elevate sketches from mere ephemera to important documents where the reader can glean valuable insight into the creative process, and apply it to their own practices. Featured designers include Ralph Caplan, Nigel Holmes, Chris Bigg, Eva Jiricna, Jason Munn, Gary Baseman, Marian Bantjes, and many others.
Book Synopsis Chihuly Over Venice by : Dale Chihuly
Download or read book Chihuly Over Venice written by Dale Chihuly and published by Chihuly Workshop. This book was released on 1996 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bound like an artist's sketchbook this book documents the culmination of this amazing artistic odyssey that took the artist from his Seattle Boathouse hot shop to Nuutajarvi, Finland; Waterford, Ireland; Monterrey, Mexico; and finally Venice to blow glass. In the factories in those locations, Chihuly and his team of American glass blowers worked with native artisans more accustomed to making functional objects than art. Together they created the 14 chandeliers that graced the campos and canals of Venice for a remarkable time in September 1996. In her essay Dana Self, curator of the Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art and Design, muses on the relationship of Chihuly's glass and 'The Spectacle of Beauty'. She concludes that Chihuly's fantastical explorations demonstrate that beauty does produce a meaningful experience of the world. Writer William Warmus chronicles the culmination of this two-year project with his diary entries. Full-colour photographs record for readers the installations as they were assembled. An extensive chronology traces the artist's career.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Describes the world's leading approach to art and design taught at Rhode Island School of Design At Rhode Island School of Design students are immersed in a culture where making questions, ideas, and objects, using and inventing materials, and activating experience all serve to define a form of critical thinking—albeit with one's hands—i.e. "critical making."

The process of making taught at RISD is deeply introspective, passionate, and often provocative. This book illuminates how RISD nurtures the creative process, from brief or prompt to outcome, along with guidance on the critical questions and research that enable making great works of art and design. Explores the conceptual process, idea research, critical questions, and iteration that RISD faculty employ to educate students to generate thoughtful work Authors are from the faculty and staff of the Rhode Island School of Design, which consistently ranks as the number one fine arts and design college in the United States The Art of Critical Making shows you how context, materials, thought processes, and self-evaluation are applied in this educational environment to prepare creative individuals to produce dynamic, memorable, and meaningful works.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can fire and ice both survive? Fire and ice have nothing on Angela Holguín and fellow MBA student Soren Lund. When they first met at school in the exciting seaside city of Barcelona, Angela was intrigued by the aloof Dane; he was enthralled by the vivacious Californian. But their timing was off and they went their separate ways - until Fate and Destiny put them back in the same city: London. In the British capital, Angela and Soren not only reunite, their desire reignites. This time they are determined not to let love slip through their fingers. They tumble into each other's arms and embark upon a passionate journey that takes them from the chic, bustling streets of London to the romantic, historic byways of Bath and back again. It is there, at their final destination, that Angela and Soren must face reality. While opposites attract, they might not be able to coexist. In the next three days, they will have to decide if what they have is truly love or simply the beckoning of desire. BECKONED: slow burn, second-chance romance inspired by food, travel, and Jane Austen. Over 300 reviews with 4.4+star average! Part 2 of a complete, 6-part series. "Aviva Vaughn's debut will sweep you off your feet. BECKONED is a vibrant, sensual story about longing and second chances. Get ready to fall in love." -Mia Hopkins, Award-Winning Author of Thirsty; voted one of the five best romances of 2018 by the Washington Post. "After reading book one I was excited to read this book and I can say I was definitely not disappointed. The writing style made me feel like I was experiencing those emotions with them. The more I read the more I found myself hoping that they could find a way to make things work, the more invested I became. The whole story was engaging and well written. A brilliant follow up to book one. I cannot wait to read the next book in this amazing series." ~Kerry, 5-star review "So I am slightly infatuated with the writing style of Aviva Vaughn. She was new to me when I first read Part 1 of this series, but I connected with her writing style right away, and this book doesn't come up short in the slightest. Aviva Vaughn writes in a fan-fiction sense of Jane Austen. HOW COULD ONE NOT LOVE IT!?!?! This alone had me hooked, leading to intense and complicated characters with realistic situations and personalities." ~Liz, 5-star review "Aviva Vaughn continues to enthrall me with her writing in this series. The scenic details and flowing storyline, hooks you from the beginning and will make you want more at the end. Luckily, there is book 3. I can't wait to continue reading the series and see if there is a HEA for Angela." ~Lisette, 5-star review "Wow. Aviva Vaughn has done it again! "Beckoned, Part 2: From Bath With Love" gives the reader a beautiful image of bustling London life contrasted wonderfully with the lazy pace of Bath. As a lover of Jane Austen books, this series has been such a treat with Angela's love of travel, books and all things Austen! FIVE STARS!!!" ~Emily, 5-star review "This series has absolutely captured me, personally I love a good cliffhanger and this book contains a brilliant one, I have fallen head over heels for each character and their personalities, so after reading book 1 I could not wait to be sucked in to this book as it continues with the story of passion,love, and travel some of my favourite story baselines. I will definitely be following and looking out for other books/series from this author as her writing and descriptions are beautifully written." ~Claire, 5-star review "Beckoned, Part 2: From Bath with Love by Aviva Vaughn was as good as the first book. I couldn't put it down and read it immediately after the first book. I love how the author makes you feel like you are a part of the story. I can't wait to read book 3 and would read anything this author writes! I love the characters and the writing. I give this book 5 stars." ~Amanda, 5-star review "After finished and loving part 1 in this series I could not wait to start the second book and I was not disappointed at all! As this starts where book 1 finished it should definitely be read after it. I cannot wait to read part 3 especially after being left on a cliff-hanger with this book!!" ~Katie, 5-star review "Another great book written by Aviva Vaughn, that you will not be able to put down. Including me, that I read it in one sitting. Ms. Vaughn's writing flows and is so descriptive. She makes you feel like you are there with her characters. She takes you on an emotional roller coaster ride that has many twists and turns. I cannot wait to read Part 3 in the Beckoned Series, I know it will be just as good." ~Dori, 5-star review "Angela and Soren's story continues in this second part of the series. I really enjoy Aviva Vaughn's writing style. It is conversational and easy. The plot flows effortlessly. The characters are real and flawed. I felt like I was walking the streets of Bath with them. Continue to love this series and looking forward to book 3!" ~Heather, 5-star review "This is a series that I am so happy I started reading. I found myself lost in its pages and not wanting to put it down until I had finished. I can't wait to read the next book in the series." ~Laura, 5-star review -------------------------- Dearest Reader, I wrote BECKONED for many reasons, but first and foremost, I wrote it to feature the kind of people I know: diverse, smart, complicated men and women. My heroines are strong and educated, and my heroes are polite and respectful. As an avid reader, I wanted to see characters that looked like me and my friends and reflect the world I want to see. I also wanted to write a beautiful book. I consider BECKONED to be a modern story told in an old-fashion way with lots of metaphors and beautiful phrases, and where the sex is explicit but also elegant. So if you are a Word Nerd like me, then you will love BECKONED! If you choose to embark on this journey with me, you--and your taste buds--will get to visit London, Barcelona, Bath, Los Angeles, Honolulu, Costa Rica, New Zealand, and Copenhagen. It will be a fun--and delicious--ride! There are even recipes in some of the books as well as soundtracks to give you a multi-sensory experience. BECKONED is a single story in six parts and should be read in order. The intimacy is steamy, but it is slooooooow burn and is distributed throughout the books because of how the couples' relationships change and deepen. Birthing BECKONED has truly been a labor of love, and I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it! BUCKLE UP and enjoy the journey. Wishing you love and romance, ~Aviva
