Book Hawthorne on Painting

    Book Details:
  • Author : Charles W. Hawthorne
  • Publisher : Courier Corporation
  • Release : 1960-06-01
  • ISBN : 048620653X
  • Pages : 98 pages

Download or read book Hawthorne on Painting written by Charles W. Hawthorne and published by Courier Corporation. This book was released on 1960-06-01 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Look around and select a subject that you can see painted. That will paint itself. Do the obvious thing before you do the superhuman thing. It may have been accidental, but you knew enough to let this alone. The good painter is always making use of accidents. Never try to repeat a success. Swing a bigger brush — you don’t know what fun you are missing. For 31 years, Charles Hawthorne spoke in this manner to students of his famous Cape Cod School of Art. The essence of that instruction has been collected from students’ notes and captured in this book, retaining the personal feeling and the sense of on-the-spot inspiration of the original classroom. Even though Hawthorne is addressing himself to specific problems in specific paintings, his comments are so revealing that they will be found applicable a hundred times to your own work. The book is divided into sections on the outdoor model, still life, landscape, the indoor model, and watercolor. Each section begins with a concise essay and continues with comments on basic elements: general character, color, form, seeing, posture, etc. It is in the matter of color that students will especially feel themselves in the presence of a master guide and critic. Hawthorne’s ability to see color and, more important, to make the student see color, is a lesson that will aid student painters and anyone else interested in any phase of art. Although it does not pretend to be a comprehensive or closely ordered course, this book does have much to offer. It also represents the artistic insight of one of the finest painter-teachers of the twentieth century. "An excellent introduction for laymen and students alike." — Time "To read these notes and comments … is in itself an education. One cannot help but gain great help." — School Arts

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Completely revised and updated throughout, Bryan Peterson's classic guide to creativity helps photographers visualize their work, and the world, in a whole new light by developing their photographic vision. Fully revised with all new photography, this best-selling guide takes a radical approach to creativity by explaining that it is not an inherent ability but a skill that can be learned and applied. Using inventive photos from his own stunning portfolio, author and veteran photographer Bryan Peterson deconstructs creativity for photographers. He details the basic techniques that go into not only taking a particular photo, but also provides insights on how to improve upon it--helping readers avoid the visual pitfalls and technical dead ends that can lead to dull, uninventive photographs. This revised edition features a complete section on color as a design element and all new photographs to illustrate Peterson's points. Learning to See Creatively is the definitive reference for any photographer looking for a fresh perspective on their work.

  • Author : Joey Allgood
  • Publisher : CreateSpace
  • Release : 2014-08-19
  • ISBN : 9781500891480
  • Pages : 54 pages

Download or read book Real Weird Art written by Joey Allgood and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-08-19 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within these pages, you'll find 24 real weird works capable of enriching your life and entertaining your guests while they potty (let's be honest about where this book is going). Still, look a bit deeper, and you'll start uncovering commentary on subjects like existentialism, consumerism, feminism, and plus also bunches more -isms! I've spent countless hours crafting this collection of work, which is fortunate for you, because by reading this sentence you have implicitly agreed to purchase my book. Wow... this just got awkward, didn't it? I didn't want to trick you like that, but these things aren't cheap to print, and I couldn't risk you purchasing on merit alone. I mean, I can't PROVE you read that sentence, but what kind of person doesn't do the right thing and honor a totally dishonorable agreement? Right? I feel like you might still be waffling. Mostly because you're still reading this and not handing me your money. Let's see, you already know what's in it for me... Let's talk about what's in it for you! 1) You'll develop (or maintain) your reputation as a seasoned purveyor of all things eclectic and debonair. Putting this book on your coffee table is like wearing a pair of golden monocles. On the same eye. 2) You'll be a bona fide supporter of the arts, which not only makes you intrinsically superior to those uppity Johnsons, but also helps you get back an extra lil som'n-som'n come tax time. 3) I'll use your monies to help realize my dream of chucking a billion spaghetti noodles off the Empire State Building. Imagine the elation as wonderful, wet pasta begins showering the bewildered crowd below. And you, alongside other supporters of this nirvana moment, smiling with pride as you each raise a warm bowl of marinara. Buy the book. For you. For me. For the noodles.
