Painting Still Lifes by Gabriel Martin Roig
Although still life is a favored genre for teaching beginning artists their craft, some of the world's greatest painters have also produced still lifes that are recognized as masterpieces. This manual takes beginners through the steps of arranging and sketching basic geometric shapes on paper or canvas, and then progressing to settings that show fruit, flowers, and other traditional still life arrangements. A brief survey of the still life masterworks of Paul C(c)zanne concludes this book. Barron's series of Beginner Art Guides offer basic instruction in a variety of techniques and media. As the series title states, these books are practical manuals for beginners in art, presenting short, easy-to-understand explanations of techniques and materials, exercises, supplemented with illustrative sketches, and general advice on drawing and painting. The last page of each manual focuses on a widely recognized artist who has produced well-known paintings or drawings in the medium or technique that is the book's focus.| SKU | Unavailable |
