Colour and Light
A Guide for the Realist Painter
(Autor) James GurneyUnlike 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.
