Figure & Portrait (Paint! Series)
Editorial Reviews Book Description Covering the full range of painting mediums, this appealing instructional examines work by leading contemporary artists to show students a variety of approaches to the fascinating art of figure and portrait painting. From traditional to more abstract styles, in oil, watercolor, acrylic, pastel, and mixed media, the book's depictions of beautiful human forms and expressive faces are accompanied by detailed text featuring the artists' own explanations of how they work, from inspiration and composition to choice of materials, colors, and technique. Endorsed by Windsor & Newton, one of the world's most respected suppliers of art materials, the book is recommended for novice painters as well as those with experience in one medium who are interested in diversifying to others, and for landscape artists who want to expand to figures and portraiture. About the Author Henrietta Hosegood, who has authored crafts and technology books and worked as an editor on several art magazines, lives in the United Kingdom.
