This review is from: Painting with a Fresh Eye (Hardcover)
I have always found this book highly inspirational. I love big, juicy color, and Chadbourn's paintings leap off the page at you. (The medium is oil.) The most amazing ones are jumbles of intense color that your eye somehow pulls together into a recognizable subject, for instance, cows. It's just a broad band of black and white, but you know it's a herd of cows. Brilliant.This is not just a book full of inspiring paintings, though. Chadbourne has spent time analyzing the mystery of how he makes a painting work, and generously describes it for you here in a way that you can use in a nuts-and-bolts way when you're having trouble with a painting (or even just getting started). This book is well worth having in your library, and I will never let go of my own copy until they pry it out of my . . . well, you know what I mean. |
