Clark emphasises the importance of retaining a certain amount of botanical accuracy and provides examples of the ornamental possibilities of selected plants in various stages of their development. The language employed in describing the plants is not rigorously scientific and may be understood by those with little familiarity with botanical terms (a brief glossary is also provided). By focusing primarily on accurate renderings of the plants, rather than decorative applications, Clark allows the student's originality to remain unaffected by his personal preferences, and in so doing he allows students to adapt his teachings to their particular tastes and styles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 198\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.42 x 10 x 7 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 20, 2014\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48791712235774,"sku":"9781108070065","price":85.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0826\/8716\/4670\/files\/cwgHw3y2Ws9781108070065_0d6f3a0d-7438-4e2f-95de-e2a6eac49810.webp?v=1787868555"},{"product_id":"botanical-line-drawing-200-step-by-step-flowers-leaves-cacti-succulents-and-other-items-found-in-nature-paperback-2","title":"Botanical Line Drawing: 200 Step-By-Step Flowers, Leaves, Cacti, Succulents, and Other Items Found in Nature - Paperback","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: right;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/reportcopyrightinfringement.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eReport copyright infringement\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003eby \u003cb\u003ePeggy Dean\u003c\/b\u003e (Author)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFrom the artist behind the popular Pigeon Letters website, an easy, no-skills-necessary guide to drawing flowers, leaves, and cacti with 200 step-by-step prompts.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eLine drawing is an easy-to-master art form featuring illustrative, doodle-like designs.

By his mid-forties, Young had become well known for his political cartoons which appeared in progressive publications such as \u003cem\u003eThe Masses\u003c\/em\u003e. During World War I, Young's incendiary work eventually landed him in court on charges of conspiracy to obstruct recruiting, for which he narrowly avoided conviction. It was not until his fifties that Young's creativity found a completely new subject in the many trees surrounding his Connecticut home. Young's depiction of trees is vivid and emotional-portraying in eerie black-and-white the silhouettes of trees in various humanlike states, almost like visual haiku. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese drawings were published initially in the \u003cem\u003eSaturday Evening Post\u003c\/em\u003e.

The artist Mark Hearld finds his inspiration in the flora and fauna of the British countryside: a blue-eyed jay perched on an oak branch; two hares enjoying the spoils of an allotment; a mute swan standing at the frozen water's edge; and a sleek red fox prowling the fields. Hearld admires such twentieth-century artists as Edward Bawden, John Piper, Eric Ravilious and Enid Marx, and, like them, he chooses to work in a range of media - paint, print, collage, textiles and ceramics. The works are grouped into nature-related themes introduced by Hearld, who narrates the story behind some of his creations and discusses his influences. He explains his particular love of collage, which he favours for its graphic quality and potential for strong composition. Art historian Simon Martin contributes an essay on Hearld's place in the English popular-art tradition, and also meets Hearld in his museum-like home to explore the artist's passion for collecting objects, his working methods and his startling ability to view the wonders of the natural world as if through a child's eyes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMARK HEARLD studied at Glasgow School of Art and the Royal College of Art, London.

Beginners recognise that they need to acquire basic painting skills - but at the same time they are eager to produce their first finished painting. This popular 'weekend' formula allows them to do both in a limited amount of time - to build skills gradually and to produce an attractive, frameable painting that they can hang on their walls by the end of the weekend. The author starts by introducing the materials required, and then leads readers through a series of watercolour technique exercises designed to provide a basic grounding in the skills needed for this subject area. This instruction is followed by six weekend projects for painting a range of popular floral subjects: a single flower; a group of white flowers; an indoors still life; an outdoors close-up; autumn flowers; and wild flowers in the landscape. Each course starts with practice exercises to be completed on the Saturday; readers are then ready to complete the full watercolour painting on the Sunday. Clear instructions accompany step-by-step photographs throughout, and technical information is given in special feature boxes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 120\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.36 x 11.02 x 8.48 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 19, 2004\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48791819321598,"sku":"9780715316375","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0826\/8716\/4670\/files\/Ds-XLwMUpc9780715316375_53d1b66f-f624-4179-b589-d812469fc156.webp?v=1787868625"},{"product_id":"chevreul-on-the-laws-of-contrast-of-colour-and-their-application-to-the-arts-paperback-2","title":"Chevreul on the Laws of Contrast of Colour: And Their Application to the Arts - Paperback","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: right;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/reportcopyrightinfringement.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eReport copyright infringement\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003eby \u003cb\u003eMichel Eugène Chevreul\u003c\/b\u003e (Author), \u003cb\u003eJohn Spanton\u003c\/b\u003e (Translator)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiscover Michel Eugéne Chevreul's groundbreaking theories on colour as he explores the principles of contrasting and harmonising colours in this classic text on colour theory.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFirst published in 1839 as \u003cem\u003eDe la Loi du Contraste Simultané Des Couleurs Atlas\u003c\/em\u003e, Chevreul's work followed that of Isaac Newton and Johann Goethe.

In the world's museums and in towns and cities throughout Europe, misguided restoration efforts are having irreversible, often tragic effects on masterpieces by Piero della Francesca, Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Raphael, Titian, and many other artists. What roles do aesthetic, institutional, and commercial factors play in the decision to restore a work of art? How can we prevent or halt projects in which a work of art is not restored but irreparably damaged? James Beck and Michael Daley explore these questions in the context of restoration projects in Florence, at the Sistine Chapel in Rome, and in museums in France, England, and the United States. They sound an alarm that must be heeded if we are to preserve the world's art for future generations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBack Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book deals with one of the most important and contentious issues in the world of fine art. Starting in the 1970s a mania has developed for restorations of works of art. London's National Gallery (first in this field by several decades), Washington's National Gallery, the Metropolitan, the Louvre, the Prado, the Uffizi, and others besides, are restoring their collections on a wholesale basis. Much of what is being done is radical and, in its effects, irreversible. Yet a generation from now, or less, the assumptions and the most advanced technologies of today may well be regarded as backward, misconceived or plain wrong. The authors discuss the recent restoration of three Renaissance masterpieces including Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel ceiling, one of the high points - and perhaps now also one of the tragedies - in the history of Western art. New evidence is presented of what has been done, and why, and it is certain to be controversial. Also examined are the restoration policies of the National Gallery and, so far as they can be learned from what the Gallery is prepared to reveal, their effects. These will prove controversial too. The authors enquire into the social, cultural and, increasingly, commercial factors that underlie the recent spate of restorations which have produced what amounts to a restoration establishment with its own networks, priorities and interests. Last, they offer hope not only that change is possible but also that the need for change is beginning to be recognized, and they put forward ideas for hastening the process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 288\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.71 x 8.55 x 5.52 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 12, 2008\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48792076812542,"sku":"9780393312973","price":23.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0826\/8716\/4670\/files\/T_2P9HxE1G9780393312973_1c179d25-b6ad-42e0-b7e5-dbab49dfc694.webp?v=1787871733"},{"product_id":"artistic-interpretations-of-science-exploring-microscopic-life-and-quantum-wonders-through-an-artistic-lens-paperback-2","title":"Artistic Interpretations of Science: Exploring Microscopic Life and Quantum Wonders Through an Artistic Lens - Paperback","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: right;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/reportcopyrightinfringement.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eReport copyright infringement\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003eby \u003cb\u003eElysia Heartwood\u003c\/b\u003e (Author)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePrepare to embark on a mesmerizing journey where art and science intertwine, revealing the hidden wonders of the universe.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Artistic Interpretations of Science: Exploring Microscopic Life and Quantum Wonders Through an Artistic Lens invites you to explore the invisible realms of microscopic life and the enigmatic world of quantum physics through the transformative power of art. \u003cstrong\u003eThis book bridges the gap between seemingly disparate disciplines, demonstrating how art can illuminate complex scientific concepts and make them accessible to all.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Discover the breathtaking beauty concealed within cellular landscapes and the intricate portraits of bacterial life.

It is designed to be an interactive guide to learning about the lives of the understory plants that have evolved to live in close association with Coastal Redwood trees. The plants are arranged by bloom dates so that when the reader encounters one of them blooming, thumbing forward or back a few pages in the book will yield other plants to learn. Each of these Redwood community plants is covered in a two page fashion, the left-hand pages are text pages, providing interesting facts and stories covering the botany and environmental aspects of Redwood community plants. Included for each plant are color photographs that aid in identification. The photographs are labeled with educational questions and observations. Vocabulary words are underlined and definitions can be found in the book's glossary. Also included at the end of the book are sections on native plant protection, tree planting, Native American, pioneer and current uses of these plants, plant family characteristics, an index of common and scientific names, a sample food web, and bibliographic information. The right-hand pages feature the author's large fine art gray-scale images that may be colored with colored pencils or watercolor paints. The simple, pleasurable act of applying color adds much to the learning process, making it possible to learn the plants for a life time and not just for a moment. As the reader\/artist adds natural colors, the images come to life with the grace that plants in nature often possess. Unlike in most coloring books where one colors on blank spaces between solid lines, here the reader\/artist colors on the lines and shading of the leaves, flowers and stems. Capturing the life and vibrancy in this way connects people with nature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 130\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.35 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 06, 2017\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48792093688062,"sku":"9781495106606","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0826\/8716\/4670\/files\/fZIWrb-Ah49781495106606_dd719438-bcbe-4aad-8a8b-aae8878c6aac.webp?v=1787871744"},{"product_id":"ernst-haeckels-art-forms-in-nature-a-visual-masterpiece-of-the-natural-world-paperback-2","title":"Ernst Haeckel's Art Forms in Nature: A Visual Masterpiece of the Natural World - Paperback","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: right;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/reportcopyrightinfringement.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eReport copyright infringement\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003eby \u003cb\u003eErnst Haeckel\u003c\/b\u003e (Author), \u003cb\u003eAdolf Glitsch\u003c\/b\u003e (Illustrator), \u003cb\u003eErnst Haeckel\u003c\/b\u003e (Illustrator)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIn a beautiful celebration of the natural world, \u003cem\u003eErnst Haeckel's Art Forms in Nature\u003c\/em\u003e is a masterful union of science and art.

We all have a notion--mostly consisting of evocative images of otherworldly beings galloping, swimming, flying, and often attacking the hero of an epic film or story. But what makes a creature believable? In the follow-up to her bestseller, Animals Real and Imagined: The Fantasy of What Is and What Might Be, world-renowned artist Terryl Whitlatch reveals the secret behind believable creature design: anatomy. How anatomy applies practically to the natural history and story is the prime cornerstone on which successful creature design hangs, whether the creature is real or imaginary. Studying, understanding, drawing, and applying accurate anatomy to an imaginary creature will make viewers suspend their disbelief to welcome a new vision into their worlds. We invite you to immerse yourself in the intricate workings of numerous animal anatomies--and the beauty they possess--in the Science of Creature Design: Understanding Animal Anatomy. Whitlatch's delightful and charismatic illustrations will inform and thrill readers with every turn of the page. She shares valuable techniques reaped from years working for Lucasfilm and Walt Disney Feature Animation, and on such films as Jumanji, Brother Bear, and The Polar Express. In addition, Whitlatch exemplifies an endless love for real animals that continues to inspire her fantastic imaginary creatures, which have captivated audiences around the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTerryl Whitlatch is an accomplished, scientifically and academically trained illustrator who extensively studied vertebrate zoology and animal anatomy.

Mann and the Pulitzer Prize-winning political cartoonist Tom Toles have been on the front lines of the fight against climate denialism for most of their careers. They have witnessed the manipulation of the media by business and political interests and the unconscionable play to partisanship on issues that affect the well-being of billions. The lessons they have learned have been invaluable, inspiring this brilliant, colorful escape hatch from the madhouse of the climate wars. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Madhouse Effect\u003c\/i\u003e portrays the intellectual pretzels into which denialists must twist logic to explain away the clear evidence that human activity has changed Earth's climate. Toles's cartoons collapse counter-scientific strategies into their biased components, helping readers see how to best strike at these fallacies. Mann's expert skills at science communication aim to restore sanity to a debate that continues to rage against widely acknowledged scientific consensus. The synergy of these two climate science crusaders enlivens the gloom and doom of so many climate-themed books--and may even convert die-hard doubters to the side of sound science.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMichael E.
