Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

This is a book about making connections: interweaving lines, shapes, colours, moving backgrounds into foregrounds, converting positive into negative shapes, turning lost edges into foreground boundaries. The intention is to create a painting or drawing that is a harmonious unit, with each individual element subordinated to the impact of the whole. The author uses pen and ink, watercolour and oil to introduce methods for artists to develop personal patterns of thinking and perceiving and to integrate a drawing or a painting. This book is designed to be of interest to artists of all levels and abilities, particularly for intermediate and advanced students who already know how to paint but who want to make more expressive paintings. Charles Reid is the author of "Figure Painting in Watercolor" and "Painting by Design".
