Download or read book Painting by Numbers written by Diana Seave Greenwald and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2021-02-16 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A pathbreaking history of art that uses digital research and economic tools to reveal enduring inequities in the formation of the art historical canon Painting by Numbers presents a groundbreaking blend of art historical and social scientific methods to chart, for the first time, the sheer scale of nineteenth-century artistic production. With new quantitative evidence for more than five hundred thousand works of art, Diana Seave Greenwald provides fresh insights into the nineteenth century, and the extent to which art historians have focused on a limited—and potentially biased—sample of artwork from that time. She addresses long-standing questions about the effects of industrialization, gender, and empire on the art world, and she models more expansive approaches for studying art history in the age of the digital humanities. Examining art in France, the United States, and the United Kingdom, Greenwald features datasets created from indices and exhibition catalogs that—to date—have been used primarily as finding aids. From this body of information, she reveals the importance of access to the countryside for painters showing images of nature at the Paris Salon, the ways in which time-consuming domestic responsibilities pushed women artists in the United States to work in lower-prestige genres, and how images of empire were largely absent from the walls of London’s Royal Academy at the height of British imperial power. Ultimately, Greenwald considers how many works may have been excluded from art historical inquiry and shows how data can help reintegrate them into the history of art, even after such pieces have disappeared or faded into obscurity. Upending traditional perspectives on the art historical canon, Painting by Numbers offers an innovative look at the nineteenth-century art world and its legacy.

Drawn from the annals of America's fondly remembered pastimes, Real Art! is an all-new, cleverly designed paint by number kit and the coolest gift of the season. Open the box and discover everything an artist needs to create a gallery of paintings suitable for framing--ten white "canvas" boards, 18 oversized pots of acrylic paint, and two brushes, one narrow and one medium. The images, newly created by artist Nancy Stahl, are iconic: a still life of luscious pears. A clipper ship in full sail. Tropical parrots in a study of exuberant hue. The geisha. The bustling street scene. And two bona fide masterpieces: van Gogh's Sunflowers and, yes, the Mona Lisa. Plus, pulling the full experience together is a 64-page full-color book of history, appreciation, and instruction. Illustrated throughout, it traces the canon of PBN subjects and artists, including the original brouhaha over its place in the culture; and provides a how-to-paint primer--including how to improvise, from choosing a varied color palette to leaving parts of the canvas blank, à la Warhol; plus tips on displaying your work and, ultimately, becoming a PBN collector.
Download or read book The Official Paint By Numbers Guide Master the Secrets to Paint By Numbers written by Logan Ransley and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2018-10-23 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paint By Numbers is fun. Plain and simple. It allows a new stress-reducing approach for expressing ourselves - using a method of painting invented by Leonardo da Vinci. (Legend has it that he created this method because he was too busy to teach his disciples and pupils how to paint.)After years of suffering enormous social anxiety, and surviving countless (and frightening) panic attacks, Logan Ransley found out about Paint By Numbers - a popular "kid's game" that anyone can use to paint true pieces of fantastic art.The concept of "Paint By Numbers" is simple: Each artist is given a canvas with the outline of a graphic. The outline is separated by "mini outlines", each one designated with a number. The artist then paints in those assigned numbers with a colour that corresponds with the number. (So #1 is orange, #2 is red, #3 is green, and so on.) Reaching the pinnacle of his expression, he created a complete guidebook on Paint By Numbers.The Official Paint By Numbers Guide takes you by the hand and shows you how to maneuver and overcome the many problems both he and his friends encountered. Among those include thickening paint, smudging areas, unrolling the canvas without destroying the outline, and a lot more.Using the techniques and skills that helped him cope with the stress of everyday living, Logan gives you the tactics and strategies you can use in your own life to manage stress single-handedly and how to transform "Paint By Numbers" from being a game for kids into a therapeutic art form so you can become a happier, less-stressed and a more creative version of yourself.
