Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a comprehensive guide to the art of drawing from nature, specifically focusing on landscapes, with a particular emphasis on trees and plants. The author, a passionate advocate for the importance of direct observation in art, leads the reader through a structured system for developing drawing skills. Drawing from nature was a central tenet of the Romantic movement in art, and this book, through its detailed instructions and artistic illustrations, seeks to revive this approach for contemporary artists. The author's approach emphasizes the importance of studying the individual character of each tree, exploring its unique features and how they are affected by the surrounding environment. The text highlights how each tree possesses a distinct personality, which is further shaped by factors like soil, climate, and age. This book, with its focus on observation, precise rendering, and a love for the natural world, offers a timeless approach to drawing, one that can be enjoyed by artists of all levels. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
