Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "For over 200 years, artists have been inspired to capture the beauty, violence, poetry and transformative power of the sea in American life. Oceans play a key role in American society no matter where we live, and the sea continues to inspire painters today to capture its mystery and power. In American Waters reveals that marine painting is so much more than ship portraits. In this exhibition, visitors will also discover the sea as an expansive way to reflect on American culture and environment, learn how coastal and maritime symbols moved inland across the United States, and question what it means to be "in American waters." Be transported across time and water on the wave of a diverse range of modern and historical artists including Georgia O'Keeffe, Amy Sherald, Kay WalkingStick, Norman Rockwell, Hale Woodruff, Paul Cadmus, Thomas Hart Benton, Jacob Lawrence, Valerie Hegarty, Stuart Davis, and many others"--Publisher's website

This book was released on 2018-09-10 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Exhibition of Two Hundred American Water Colors: Selected From a National Competition Held by the Section of Fine Arts, Washington, D. C.; September 16-30, 1941 From this Competition were purchased the water colors which make up the present exhibition. They remind us again that to do a good water color requires as authentic a talent as to do a good oil. Water color seems a slighter medium only because apparent spontaneity is essential to it. By Spontaneity I do not mean any thing slap-happy or formless. On the contrary, the very fact that the medium admits of less repainting makes it necessary that the artist should do his thinking first - before he puts anything on paper. By spontaneity I mean absolute freshness and clearness of touch. The conventions within which the art of water color painting exists preclude, even more than those of oil painting, any exact imitation of nature. It is more a short-hand statement of painting. Freshness and clearness of touch are never the result of thoughtless impulse. The water color painter had better be right before he puts anything down, as subsequent repentances will not save him.

Download or read book John Singer Sargent Watercolors written by John Singer Sargent and published by Mfa Publications. This book was released on 2012 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Singer Sargents approach to watercolour was unconventional. Disregarding late-nineteenth-century aesthetic standards that called for carefully delineated and composed landscapes filled with transparent washes, his confidently bold, dense strokes and loosely defined forms startled critics and fellow practitioners alike. One reviewer in England, where Sargent spent much of his adult life, called his work swagger watercolours. For Sargent, however, the watercolours were not so much about swagger as about a new way of thinking. In watercolour as opposed to oils his vision became more personal and his works more interconnected. Presenting nearly 100 works of art, this book is the first major publication of Sargents watercolours in twenty years. Each chapter highlights a different subject or theme that attracted the artists attention during his travels through Europe and the Middle East: sunlight on stone, figures reclining on grass, patterns of light and shadow. Insightful essays by the worlds leading experts enhance this book and introduce readers to the full sweep of Sargents accomplishments in the medium, in works that delight the eye as well as challenge our understanding of this prodigiously gifted artist.
