Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Harvard lecturer of design Denman Waldo Ross discusses the attributes, temperature and tone of the colors, in a manner comprehensive to amateur and professional painters alike. A superb introductory text to color theory and art methodology, The Painter's Palette consists of brief yet salient information, presented alongside illustrative charts. The quantity and quality of the light present in each color is crucial to artists seeking to imbue a work with a certain mood or ambiance, or create phenomena such as shadows or rays of light being upon certain objects. Ross classifies and scales the colors with a simple, effective system whose utility cannot be doubted. Together with his educational books on art theory and composition, Ross worked as a lecturer and later as professor of art in Harvard University. His interests ranged through the history of art, such that he was appointed as trustee of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston. Although he died in 1935, Ross's works remain both relevant and useful to artists in the modern day: his incisive style is suitable as a qualitative supplemental reference for amateurs, students, and the experienced.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Painters Palette: A Theory of Tone Relations, an Instrument of Expression In taking up the practice of painting, it is a question what pigments to use, how to arrange them on the palette, and then how to use the palette. Following the example of most painters, we take certain pigments; blacks, browns, reds, yellows, greens, blues, and whites; and, putting them in a row, we proceed to mix them, two or more together, quite freely, following our visual impressions or the suggestions of the imagination. In so doing we hope to produce results and effects which will be appropriate to what we have seen or to the ideas we have to express. There is no principle or law in this procedure and the effects produced depend, in every case, upon the taste and judgment of the performer; who is, necessarily, as much concerned with the problems of the palette as he is with the problem of his Motif or Subject, whether it is well chosen; of his Design, whether it is consistent; or of his Drawing, whether it is true or expressive. It is so difficult to decide what to do, in view of the great number and variety of pigments, and the infinite possibilities of mixing them together. Most painters get over the difficulty by acquiring a habit and doing the same thing repeatedly, following the precedents of their own particular practice, whatever it happens to be. Considering the Art of Music and the use of musical instruments, it seems that the musician has a great advantage over the painter in having a fixed scale of tones and definite rules for using it, - rules based on good precedents and representing the practice of recognized masters. Thinking of musical instruments and the laws of Counterpoint and of Harmony, the question comes up whether it may not be possible for the painter to convert his palette into an instrument of precision and to make the production of effects of light and color a well ordered procedure, - a procedure which everyone can understand and follow.

This book was released on 2020-09-05 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interestingly, Denman Waldo Ross earned his doctorate in political economy from Harvard University, but soon after became interested in art soon after. It could be said he was a renaissance man in the sense that he transitioned so beautifully from one study to the other, setting upon lecturing on design and art in 1889 with the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, and the newly acquired Oriental Art department for his teachings. He travelled in search of art for his own private collections, and became a member of the Bostonian elite circle of the arts and creatives. Some of his students he lectured at Harvard went on to become prominent artists. His book "The Painter's Palette" is a sort of textbook to these elitists for understanding the analysis of temperatures, values, and colors as well as color temp to instruct on the nuances of painting within tone.

Book excerpt: From the PREFACE.THIS pamphlet, a large portion of which in typewritten form has been in use for several years, has been written primarily for the needs of the students in the courses in drawing and painting in Harvard University and Radcliffe College; but as an elementary statement of the theory of tone relations, containing r also a certain amount of new contribution to the subject, it may be of use to others.In the first two chapters I have tried to explain clearly and rather fully the possible classifications which may be made of the different factors that enter into visual tone, or what is in ordinary speech usually referred to simply as color. In the later chapters I have covered more briefly the principal possibilities in the application of these classifications to design and representation, in order to make as complete as possible an outline of the whole subject of tone relations.In considerable part the pamphlet makes no claim to originality. Dr. Ross, in his epoch-making books,1 has discussed the subject of tone relations and the use of scaled palettes at length. As these books have in some cases, however, proved rather difficult reading for the beginner, I have attempted to explain certain elementary facts which they have taken more or less for granted -- especially the relation of the terminology used by Dr. Ross to other terminologies, that of Dr. Ross's classification to other possible classifications, and the bearing of the different kinds of color mixture on these.There are some who still believe that it is unnecessary and even "^ unwise for the painter, to say nothing of the general public, to u know anything definite about the materials of the craft or the .5 terms of the language which the painter employs. But if one compares the quality of the surface of even an average painting, dating I* from the XVIII century or before that time, with that of even the 5I best paintings of the XIX or the XX century, it will be seen that the workshop traditions of the Renaissance, which were completely lost in the course of the early part of the XIX century, had something very definite to do with the beauty of performance which forms so constant a characteristic of painting down to the end of the XVIII century, but is met with so rarely in modern painting. That tradition was a matter of knowledge -- knowledge of materials and procedures, acquired slowly by experimental practice in the workshop, and handed on from generation to generation of artists for centuries. This empirical knowledge, based on tradition, it is impossible to recover; but on the basis of our newly acquired understanding of tone relations it is possible to build up a practice of painting which may have many of the advantages of the older practice based on tradition. Indeed, by way of compensation, certain new and almost unexplored possibilities are suggested by a thorough understanding of the general principles governing design and representation in the terms of painting. There are some of us who believe that it is useless to expect anything significant in the way of modern art from a stupid clinging to the imitative ideals of the XIX century, on the one hand, or from vague self-expression or clumsy counterfeiting of the superficial look of primitive art, on the other, so long as there is no understanding of principles. Any genuinely significant art of the immediate future will be distinguished by the fact that it is based on both knowledge and feeling.
