Barron's Color Color

Acrylic

Color is the second volume in Barron's new art instruction series that focuses on creation of finished, professional-looking 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 full-color illustrations on every page. Hardcover book measures 9 1/4 in. x 11 5/8 in., 160 pages. Barron's, 2005. ISBN: 0764158619

Each title in the Artist's Handbook Series has a sturdy hardcover binding, allowing it to be taken out to the field as handily as it is used in the studio. The books' hidden spiral bindings keep pages lying flat, so students can work freely with their art materials without having to fight with their instruction manual. Each title supplements textual instruction with more than 400 color illustrations showing paintings in various stages of completion. There is also detailed information on artists' tools, techniques, mixing colors, creating special effects, and trouble-shooting to correct errors. All three Artist's Handbooks show examples of works by famous artists in the respective media to help students see how each medium has been used by world-renowned masters. Modern acrylics, which are plastic-based pigments, offer artists many of the same possibilities and effects as the more traditional gouache paints, which are opaque water-based pigments. This manual offers detailed instruction on creating paintings in both media. Hardcover book with hidden spiral binding measures 6 1/2 in. x 8 in., 224 pages. Barron's. ISBN 0764156217
