Garnet Hall, author of Art of Intarsia and Creative Intarsia Projects, is back with more fabulous techniques and breathtaking projects that take the art to new and exciting levels. Intarsia involves cutting different types and shades of wood into shapes and then assembling them to create an intricate design: the resulting piece is rich in colour and appealingly dimensional. With this guide in hand, beginners will have all the advice they need on cutting and fitting accurately, raising and lowering the pieces to get the look of relief carving, and shaping, sanding, and texturing the wood. The great patterns and projects feature a bright toucan on a branch, chicken kitchen clock, an astral mirror and an Arctic scene.

As New Condition One Previous Owner Smoke Free Home No-one can help being moved by the incredible atmosphere Trevor Chamberlain manages to portray in his paintings. But maybe even more impressive (from a painter's perspective) is the masterly way he achieves this with what seems like a minimum of detail and what some would consider ordinary and mundane subject matter. Who else could find sprout pickers in Bedfordshire or early-birds at a car-boot sale in Hertford appealing – but with the right light, the clever use of composition and subtle use of colour, this artist does, making every one of his paintings such a joy to look at and a lesson in simplicity and freshness. All the paintings and drawings are being published for the first time, many accompanied by anecdotal notes. Barry Miles was born in Southampton and studied at Southampton College of Art where he gained his diploma in 1979. He worked in graphics and publishing for a number of years in conjunction with an equally successful career as a… Read More

See and paint nature as never before!
From a perfectly posed butterfly to a delicately tinted leaf to tiny eggs in a bird's nest, realistic natural details enhance a painting's appeal. Now internationally acclaimed artist and teacher, Peggy Harris, shares her secrets.
"This is primarily a book to train your eye rather than your hand...We would not think of attaching arms or legs to the head of an animal or person, or placing the eyes on the feet; yet we frequently place incorrect vein patterns on leaves, randomly attach insect antennae or legs and so on."
With tips, painting demonstrations, fascinating facts and her own beautiful artwork, Peggy teaches you to observe nature accurately and let your knowledge give life and credibility to your painting, no matter what your artistic style.
"As you carefully examine and compare subjects from the natural world, you will inevitably become more skilled in your depiction of them."

REVIEW
Swiss graphic design and the Swiss Style are crucial elements in the history of modernism. During the 1920s and 30s, skills traditionally associated with Swiss industry, particularly pharmaceuticals and mechanical engineering, were matched by those of the countrys graphic designers, who produced their advertising and technical literature. These pioneering graphic artists saw design as part of industrial production and searched for anonymous, objective visual communication. They chose photographic images rather than illustration, and typefaces that were industrial-looking rather than those designed for books.Written by noted design authority Richard Hollis, this lavishly illustrated volume looks at the uniquely clear graphic language developed by such Swiss designers as Theo Ballmer, Max Bill, Adrian Frutiger, Karl Gerstner, Armin Hoffman, Ernst Keller, Herbert… Read More
