Seller's Description:
Very Good in Very Good jacket. Size: 8x0x11; A small area of dampstaining to lower edge of rear panel of dustjacket. Ramon Kelley shows how anyone can use 5 Essential Concepts to make powerful, unique paintings. Demonstrating in oil and pastel, Ramon explains: how to design a dynamic Composition; how to simplify Values and use them to guide the viewer's eye to the place you want it; how to work with Color to generate different moods and to create emphasis; how to use Texture to bring out dramatic, three-dimensional forms in the subject. Then Ramon shows how to bring it all together by using the previous four essentials, plus contrast in both the level of detail and the types of edges. The end result will be a powerful Focal Point that captures and intrigues the viewer's eye.
