Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the FOREWORD BY A. L. BALDRY.When an artist is beyond question a master of his craft it is always particularly interesting to hear what he has to say about the principles by which his art is controlled and the methods he employs in his practice. It is, of course, in his work, in the things he creates, that he gives the complete expression of his convictions and that the full product of his experience is embodied, but by the aid of words he is able not only to declare the intention by which his expression has been directed but also to explain the technical processes which have enabled him to arrive at his results. His creed, once set down in writing, is made permanently available for the guidance of all who study his work and seek to realise his purpose; the statement of his methods becomes an enduring record to which those who come after him can refer when they wish to understand the manner of his production. In this way, indeed, the educational value of the master's precepts is maintained indefinitely. Even after his personal and living influence has been withdrawn his authority persists and his teaching remains active, because in all its essentials it is still within the student's reach. Fashions in art may vary from time to time, but its fundamental principles do not change and the exposition of these principles which has served one generation is just as helpful to another. Therefore, such a book as this " Treatise on Landscape Painting and Effect in Water Colours, from the first rudiments to the finished picture," by David Cox, deserves as ready an acceptance to-day as it received when it was first published more than a century ago. David Cox is justly counted among the greater British masters - that can scarcely be disputed - he was also a teacher of very wide experience and he knew well how to enable others to profit by the knowledge he had accumulated. It was the fruit of this experience that he gathered in his " Treatise," and it was in response to a demand from the people who were best able to judge the quality of his teaching that he undertook the preparation of the book. " The urgent and repeated solicitations of many of his pupils," he says in his foreword, " have induced the author of this work to submit to the public those results which are the result of many years' study, and which may guide the student in the selection of appropriate effects of nature, adapted to the different characters of landscape composition." That in referring to " urgent and repeated solicitations " he was not using a mere figure of speech is likely enough, for in those days plenty of people wanted to be taught and the master who knew his business was very much in request. Drawing and water-colour painting were reckoned as elegant accomplishments which formed a necessary part of a polite education, and there was not only a host of amateurs who were ready to learn but a number of professional students as well with a real desire to become proficient in a new and attractive form of practice in which art patrons and collectors were showing themselves to be much interested. The official type of art school with which we are familiar to-day was almost non-existent - or at all events there were few such places available for the amateur - so the private teacher had to supply the deficiency and to assume a position of considerable responsibility. However, it cannot be disputed that he filled this position in a way that brought him credit and that what he had to do was done with marked efficiency....

Download or read book Painting Little Landscapes written by Zoltan Szabo and published by . This book was released on 2014-06-10 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Internationally acclaimed watercolorist and art instructor Zoltan Szabo demonstrates how to create charming little watercolor landscapes in this instructive volume. Taking readers step-by-step through his finished works, Szabo shows how to take advantage of the benefits offered by a small format (not exceeding 10" x 11"), which include spontaneity resulting from rapid drying and the textural effects granular pigments yield on a small surface. Szabo walks the reader through the creation of each painting, beginning with a reference photo and a pencil sketch and moves on to palette choices, pigment interactions, and brush techniques. Painting Little Landscapes includes assignments, in addition to 180 full-color plates, to help watercolorists create their own miniature landscapes. Each of the seven chapters covers one aspect of nature in its various forms: water, mountains, trees, snow, rocks, skies and clouds, along with flowers and close-ups. Szabo invites artists to see nature in its finest detail and ingratiate themselves in the pleasure of small-scale painting. Learn from the best in this beautifully illustrated comprehensive guide to the magic of watercolor. Zoltan Szabo was born in Hungary in 1928 and studied at the National Academy of Industrial Art in Budapest. He emigrated to Canada in 1949, and made a name for himself as one of Canada's foremost landscape painters. In addition to teaching workshops and seminars on watercolor painting, Szabo has exhibited his work in London, Canada, and the United States. Zoltan Szabo's paintings are found in public and private collections worldwide, including those of the prime ministers of Canada and Jamaica and in the National Gallery of Hungary.
