For centuries, artists have learnt from the art that came before
them. This book explains how to make paint meaningful and
imaginative responses to the works of the masters. There are step
by step examples to illustrate how to get started and how to use
thumbnail pencil sketches. Advice is given on how to make larger
and slower drawings, and then oil-sketch copies of the masters'
work. The author studies the composition, rhythms and colours of
the masters and uses their work as a source to practise and
understand paintings, and as a springboard for your own discovery
and invention. This book explores how a brave and imaginative use
of colour can reinterpret paintings to achieve a greater and more
expressive effect. Images from the earliest art to the twentieth
century are included to feed your creative imagination, and
examples of contemporary interpretations to show you the way. With
over two hundred inspiring images, it is a unique guide to
developing your own artistic voice while studying and enjoying some
of the art world's greatest treasures.
