Every colour has many aspects to it, many variations, and meanings. Red can mean passion, or suffering, or love, or anger, for instance. How are these aspects represented in works of art? FromTitian and Bosch to Matisse and Warhol, and in design and fashion, colour is omnipresent, and incredibly varied in symbolism. Paintings use colours to convey a message as much as just for surface appeal. This fascinating book focuses on the most important colours in art: red, blue, yellow, black, white, green and gold, and looks at them through some 200 beautifully printed works.

Color and Light

  • Categories: Art

Unlike many other art books only give recipes for mixing colors or describe step-by-step painting techniques, *Color and Light* answers the questions that realist painters continually ask, such as: "What happens with sky colors at sunset?", "How do colors change with distance?", and "What makes a form look three-dimensional?" Author James Gurney draws on his experience as a plain-air painter and science illustrator to share a wealth of information about the realist painter's most fundamental tools: color and light. He bridges the gap between abstract theory and practical knowledge for traditional and digital artists of all levels of experience.

How to See Color and Paint It

  • Categories: Art

Learn to see and mix any color with extraordinary precision! Many painters don't paint what they see, but what they expect to see, what they think they see, what they remember, or what they imagine things are supposed to look like. Since "the mind stands in the way of the eye," the purpose of this revolutionary book is to train you to paint what your eye actually sees. Arthur Stern claims that color is key to painting what you see. After working with three generations of students, he developed a program of 22 painting projects that teach the artist to observe, identify, mix, match, and paint the colors of the world with remarkable accuracy. Using a painting knife and oil paint, you learn to ...
