Download or read book Light and Shade written by Mrs. Mary P. Merrifield and published by Courier Corporation. This book was released on 2012-04-17 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Form,” writes the author, “is developed by means of light and shade; without these every object would appear flat.” Originally published in the mid-nineteenth century, this classic approach to three-dimensional drawing was the first book to provide art students with instructions for correctly illustrating perspective outlines of various objects. An art historian noted for her authoritative reference works, Merrifield clearly demonstrates the principles of light and shade by revealing the effects of common daylight, sunshine, and candle or artificial light on geometrical solids. Her simple explanations are accompanied by illustrations of cubes, prisms, pyramids, cylinders, spheres, ovals, and cones. As useful and practical today as it was when first published well over a century ago, Light and Shade provides beginning and advanced art students with valuable insights into effective drawing and sketching.

Download or read book Light and Shade written by Anson K. Cross and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Light and Shade: With Chapters on Charcoal, Pencil, and Brush Drawing The text-books of the National Drawing Course are intended particularly for public school teachers; but this book is written, not only for public school teachers, but for all art students and others interested in art education. It supplements the first book of the series("Free-Hand Drawing"), and shows how the methods explained in it may be applied in the study of light and shade. Good instruction in drawing must be based upon the principles which underlie the best in art, and therefore any book which is intended for the student and elementary teacher must present these principles, and must also show how students may be led to see, think, and work independently. The books "Free-Hand Drawing," "Mechanical Drawing," and "Color Study" form a necessary part of the National Drawing Course, as they contain the lessons in these different subjects which are to be given according to the order specified in the teachers "Outlines of Lessons." "Light and Shade" contains no lessons or other work called for in the plan of study of the present system, for it is not considered wise to attempt light and shade in the public schools until pupils have gained more ability in free-hand drawing than they now generally acquire below the high school.

Download or read book The Artist s Complete Guide to Figure Drawing written by Anthony Ryder and published by Watson-Guptill. This book was released on 2014-03-02 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many of us want to learn “how to draw.” But as artist Anthony Ryder explains, it’s much more important to learn what to draw. In other words, to observe and draw what we actually see, rather than what we think we see. When it comes to drawing the human figure, this means letting go of learned ideas and expectation of what the figure should look like. It means carefully observing the interplay of form and light, shape and line, that combine to create the actual appearance of human form. In The Artist’s Complete Guide to Figure Drawing, amateur and experienced artists alike are guided toward this new way of seeing and drawing the figure with a three-step drawing method. The book’s progressive course starts with the block-in, an exercise in seeing and establishing the figure’s shape. It then build to the contour, a refined line drawing that represents the figure’s silhouette. The last step is tonal work on the inside of the contour, when light and shadow are shaped to create the illusion of form. Separate chapters explore topics critical to the method: gesture, which expresses a sense of living energy to the figure; light, which largely determines how we see the model; and form, which conveys the figure’s volume and mass. Examples, step-by-steps, and special “tips” offer helpful hints and practical guidance throughout. Lavishly illustrated with the author’s stunning artwork, The Artist’s Complete Guide to Figure Drawing combines solid instruction with thoughtful meditations on the art of drawing, to both instruct and inspire artists of all levels.
