We are all artists as children, painting and drawing each day. Most of
us stop when we get older – but David Gentleman kept going. For over
ninety years he has been drawing, painting, engraving and printing,
rising to become one of Britain’s best-known and most loved artists.
His watercolours have filled galleries; his iconic wood cuts are
emblazoned across posters, book jackets and train stations; his stamps
have made their way to the furthest corners of the world.
Here, the great, polymathic artist and craftsman shares what he has
learned over the course of a lifetime of making and thinking about art.
Unlike his contemporaries, Gentleman was never a teacher; his lessons
are a sequence of unconventional prompts and reflections that will
deepen how you think about art and the world around you.
Sincere, practical and unpretentious, Gentleman’s insights are a breath
of fresh air. Here are new ways to focus, notice the world and
cultivate your own style; techniques to evolve your work, from playing
with time to painting in bad weather; methods for getting the most out
of mistakes and negative criticism; and, above all, reminders to
return, always, to the simple delights of creativity.
