商品描述

From New York Times best-selling author of the Dinotopia series, James Gurney, comes a carefully crafted and researched study on color and light in paintings. This art instruction book will accompany the acclaimed Imaginative Realism: How to Paint What Doesn’t Exist.

James Gurney, New York Times best-selling author and artist of the Dinotopia series, follows Imaginative Realism with his second art-instruction book, Color and Light: A Guide for the Realist Painter. A researched study on two of art's most fundamental themes, Color and Light bridges the gap between abstract theory and practical knowledge. Beginning with a survey of underappreciated masters who perfected the use of color and light, the book examines how light reveals form, the properties of color and pigments, and the wide variety of atmospheric effects. Gurney cuts though the confusing and contradictory dogma about color, testing it in the light of science and observation. A glossary, pigment index, and bibliography complete what will ultimately become an indispensible tool for any artist.

This book is the second in a series based on his blog, gurneyjourney.com. His first in the series, Imaginative Realism, was widely acclaimed in the fantastical art world, and was ranked the #1 Bestseller on the Amazon list for art instruction.

"James Gurney's new book, Color and Light, cleverly bridges the gap between artistic observation and scientific explanation. Not only does he eloquently describe all the effects of color and light an artist might encounter, but he thrills us with his striking paintings in the process." --Armand Cabrera, Artist

商品描述(中文翻譯)

來自《恐龍之都》系列的暢銷作家詹姆斯·葛尼(James Gurney)的新作《色彩與光線:寫實畫家的指南》是一本精心製作且經過深入研究的繪畫色彩與光線的學習書籍。這本藝術指導書是他廣受好評的《想像寫實主義:如何繪畫不存在的事物》的伴隨作品。

詹姆斯·葛尼是《紐約時報》暢銷作家和《恐龍之都》系列的藝術家,他在《色彩與光線:寫實畫家的指南》中繼續探索藝術的兩個最基本的主題。這本書填補了抽象理論和實際知識之間的差距。從對完美運用色彩和光線的被低估大師的研究開始,本書探討了光線如何顯示形態、色彩和顏料的特性,以及各種大氣效應的廣泛變化。葛尼通過科學和觀察的光線來測試色彩,打破了關於色彩的混亂和矛盾教條。該書還包括詞彙表、顏料索引和參考書目,成為任何藝術家不可或缺的工具。

這本書是基於他的博客gurneyjourney.com系列的第二本書。他的第一本書《想像寫實主義》在奇幻藝術界廣受好評,並在亞馬遜的藝術指導書排行榜上名列第一。

「詹姆斯·葛尼的新書《色彩與光線》巧妙地將藝術觀察和科學解釋之間的鴻溝拉近。他不僅優雅地描述了藝術家可能遇到的所有色彩和光線效果,還通過他引人注目的繪畫作品讓我們著迷。」- 阿曼德·卡布雷拉(Armand Cabrera),藝術家
