Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Art of Sketching From Nature The Art Manuals of which this, on "Sketching from Nature" is the first, have had a large and continued sale in England. Among the many different books on such subjects as these treat of, it is difficult to decide which is entitled to the preference; but students of Art who are separated from the ordinary means of getting information on its practical details, have always sought to gain hints and methods through works of this class. It has been wisely said, that any system of government was better than none, and these words apply well to drawing and painting. Regular ways of work of almost any approved kind, are capable in practised hands of rendering the thoughts and feelings of an artist, which a medley of methods cannot develop.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sketching From Nature, in Line and Tone There is a common opinion that a quick sketch demands less skill and training than a completed drawing. The truth lies in the opposite direction. For the sketch is an expression, in comparatively few strokes, of many facts to be read between the lines. These remarks should not discourage the beginner, but rather stimulate him to study in such a way that his sketches may become the means of valuable service.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pencil Sketching From Nature From a study of these the student will be led to see that the successful sketch largely depends upon the development of satisfactory contrasts of light and dark. Natural contrasts are emphasized and others are created at will by the draughtsman, who seeks rather to suggest the planes of his drawing than to represent them in their true values. Indeed the latter were impossible. Pencil sketching is suggestive and not photographic. Subtleties must perforce be ignored and contrasts often forced, that simplicity may be secured while the illusion of solidity is created. As the student has but few tones of black at his command, he cannot hope to reproduce values as a painter reproduces them. He must instead, seek pleasing relations of light and shade and familiar ize himself with those devices which will enable him to suggest color and present attractive relations of sun light and shadow in his sketch.

Download or read book Handbook of Drawing Classic Reprint written by William Walker and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-10 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "All true education consists in the cultivation of the judgment," writes William Walker in the Preface to Handbook of Drawing. With this simple statement of intent, Walker imparts lessons on drawing and lessons about the nature of art. Walker describes techniques and art together, so the reader learns not to copy, but instead to see art for him or herself, and approach that readers will surely be delighted with. The Handbook of Drawing has two aims. First, the book sets out to teach the elementary principles of drawing. Second, it seeks to impart judgement on matters involving art, so that students can develop a good eye. To teach students how to draw, Walker begins with the basics: how to see, how to hold the pencil, how sketch, how to outline and how to use shade and light. The lessons are easy to understand and are accompanied by illustrations. The second half of the book touches on the essence of what it means to be an artist. There are many beautiful passages examining how to draw an object in a more natural, artistic way. For example, after describing how to draw a leaf, Walker discusses how to make it the leaf more life-like and more beautiful. "But if a leaf is so placed as to show its varied and delicate curves in front one of another then we are no longer drawing from the flat... but from an object in space, with all the exquisite changes of curve and surface, and there is now more properly a field for Art expression." The illustrations - one of a flat leaf and one of a foreshortened, flowing leaf - expertly demonstrate Walker's advice. Handbook of Drawing discusses perspective and how technical ability differs from artistic ability. Walker repeatedly warns students against mere copying, encouraging them, instead, to find their own style. Anyone interested in drawing must have this expertly written text.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Essay on the Study of Nature in Drawing Landscape To imitate Nature has generally been considered as the object of the pencil. This, however, having lately been much controverted, and a distinct manner of practice having resulted from the negative Opinion, it may be necessary to give the subject some moments consideration. It is argued, by some, that general, and not individual nature is to be imitated; and a late celebrated artist rejected even this. It appears a matter of some difficulty to ascertain What is meant by general nature, and, consequently, how it is to be imitated. Were it proposed to select.

Download or read book Talks in My Studio written by John Ivey and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-03 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Talks in My Studio: The Art of Seeing, Facts and Fancies About Art, Pictures; Together With a Plain Guide to Water-Color Painting and Sketching From Nature This little is intended to replace the author's Plain Guide to Landscape-Painting in Water-Colors, With Helpful Hints for Viewing Nature and Art, which met with a flattering reception, and is exhausted. In the original preface to the "Guide" the author said: - "The author of this 'Guide' to a most fascinating art justifies its publication on the modest ground of its simplicity. It is compiled with the endeavor to impart to the amateur the fundamental knowledge which is necessary to enable him to become a master, and to help all lovers of nature to discern her subtlest beauties and her most secret revelations, in order that they may be qualified to estimate the excellencies and faults of landscape pictures. Its limits and scope preclude the possibility of including instruction in drawing, and its omission must not be held to imply that we do not appreciate the importance of drawing and design. "Experience has taught us, however, that the study and practice of color frequently serve to awaken an interest in Art, which the drier study of drawing would not, and they certainly help a student to select that branch or form of Art for which he is best fitted. Moreover, the charm of color encourages the beginner to more frequent practice of drawing from nature than he would otherwise do, while concurrently with the practice he will use one of the many admirable handbooks on Perspective, to acquaint himself with its rules, and it must be admitted that it is only by practice that the facility of drawing can be acquired.
