PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Color is the second volume in Barrons new art instruction series that focuses on creation of finished, professionallooking paintings. Books in this series are intended for use by advanced art students and experienced amateurs. Understanding and mastering color is an indispensable skill for creating paintings in oil, watercolor, tempera, gouache, and other color media, and this book analyzes all aspects and uses of color in art. The authors explain the color circle, then apply color theory to demonstrate effective use of complementary and contrasting colors. Drawing extensively on works by major painters, they show how artists use color to express moods and emotions, as well as how to create surreal effects by heightening contrasts, or by giving objects colors unlike those in nature. They discuss techniques for applying color in various wet and dry media and show how color plays an important role in an abstract painting. Their examples include paintings by such artists as Degas, Van Gogh, Picasso, Delaunay, Ernst, Rothko, and many others, with fullcolor illustrations on every page. Hardcover book measures 9 1/4 in. x 11 5/8 in., 160 pages. Barrons, 2005. ISBN: 0764158619

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Complete Guide to the New Generation of Acrylic PaintsThe acrylics of today have grown into the most adaptable art material of the modern age. Focusing on a popular art medium that has been around for over 50 years, The New Acrylics illustrates how artists can create lush textures, color, and luster with the modern acrylics readily available in any art supply store. These are nontoxic, environmentally sound, and exist in the most dazzling array of chemical formatsfrom the most fluid to the highly viscous. Not only do artists paint with acrylics these days, they can create rich metallic effects, or even 3dimensional sculptures. Traditional technique based books on acrylics cover traditional methods of painting. However, The New Acrylics is geared toward more nonconventional ways in which to manipulate modernday acrylics, and demonstrates new applications such as glazing, textured effects, soft sculpture effects, or staining, thus reinventing the old way of handling acrylics, and revealing a fabulous new artistic medium. The underlying theme of this dazzling and sophisticated book is to encourage artists to interpret and handle acrylic paints in a vibrant, fresh, and above all, individualistic style. For beginning to professional artists, fine artisans, crafters, and sculptors. Paperback. 10 1/2 in. x 8 in. 160 pages. WatsonGuptill, 2005. By Rheni Tauchid. ISBN 0823031594
