Molly Bang's brilliant, insightful, and accessible treatise is now
revised and expanded for its 25th anniversary. Bang's powerful
ideas remain unparalleled in their simplicity and genius: Explore
the intricate and thought-provoking ideas that Bang brings to
Picture This including thoughts about how the visual composition of
images works to engage the emotions, and how the elements of an
artwork can give it the power to tell a story. Why are diagonals
dramatic? Why are curves calming? Why does red feel hot and blue
feel cold? She asks the right questions to get your wheels turning
while the illustrations and thoughtful designs bring the words to
life. * Explores the mix of geometrical abstraction and emotional
expressions, plus how a few clear principles can be used to build
powerful visual statements. * Encourages you to answer the
question, "How does the structure of a picture-or any visual art
form-affect our emotional response?" * Includes powerful imagery
and beautiful illustrations to help readers feel connected to the
text. First published in 1991, Picture This has changed the way
artists, illustrators, reviewers, critics, and readers look at and
understand art. Molly Bang has authored and illustrated more than
three dozen books and has won three Caldecott Honors, a Kate
Greenaway Honor, and a Charlotte Zolotow Award, among other
accolades, in her long career as a writer and artist. Picture This
makes an imaginative and inspiring gift for any artist or loved one
who is interested in design.
