This authoritative visual guide to the artistic materials and
painting techniques of J. M. W. Turner brings to life the skills of
one of the world's greatest artists. Details of his watercolours
and oil paintings, usually only available to small numbers of
museum professionals, and an experienced artist's recreation of his
core painting processes, combine with in-depth research into
Turner's use of new materials to give unique insights into his
creative processes. How Turner Painted brings new research and
understanding to the subject since the publication of the author's
earlier book Turner's Painting Techniques (1993). Joyce Townsend,
senior conservation scientist at Tate, which houses the majority of
Turner's work and is a centre of expertise on the artist, has
revisited, updated and continued the examination of his innovative
use of materials and early adoption of new colours. Comparisons are
drawn across oil painting and watercolour to illustrate how Turner
built up an image, and what his numerous unfinished works can tell
us about his working methods. With a foreword by art historian
Nicola Moorby and a chapter contributed by artist Tony Smibert, the
book will coincide with two major new exhibitions planned for 2020,
at Tate Britain and at the Queen Victoria Museum and Art Gallery in
Tasmania.
