Asaro: following Joaquin Sorolla... but one century after !,
By "psanzgonzalez" (Madrid, Spain) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Asaro: A New Romanticism (Hardcover)
This books contains the work of John Asaro, who follows and clearly imitates the technique and style, even the compositions, of the painter Joaquin Sorolla. He takes a step forward, using the color technique introduced by Pierre Bonnard both in oils and watercolours, together with interesting construction of tonality using planes instead of the traditional "sfumatto". The result is excellent, extremely interesting for those concerned with tonality and colour theory, with good illustrations in size and quality. For sure, those who like Sorolla will find a nice surprise in this book. I highly recommend it.

The paintings are marvelous. I just wish there were some technical information.

Asaro A New Romanticism,
By A Customer
This review is from: Asaro: A New Romanticism (Hardcover)
I opened the first few pages and was really excited about reading the biography part and thought the whole book would be helpful for explaining techniques. The rest were paintings. There was no information on why or what was special about the paintings. So I was a little disappointed. The paintings were exceptional. So anyone who can't visit museums should buy this book.
