Painting and reinterpreting the masters
For centuries, artists have learned from the art that came before them. This book explains how to make paint meaningful and imaginative responses to the works of the masters. There are step by step examples to illustrate how to get started and how to use thumbnail pencil sketches. Advice is given on how to make larger and slower drawings, and then oil-sketch copies of the masters' work. The author studies the composition, rhythms and colors of the masters and uses their work as a source to practice and understand paintings, and as a springboard for your own discovery and invention. This book explores how a brave and imaginative use of color can reinterpret paintings to achieve a greater and more expressive effect. Images from the earliest art to the 20th century are included to feed your creative imagination, and examples of contemporary interpretations to show you the way. With more than 200 inspiring images, it is a unique guide to developing your own artistic voice while studying and enjoying some of the art world's greatest treasures.
