Opis

A revealing and nostalgic look at how art was taught more than 100 years ago, Decorative Brushwork and Elementary Design is an inspiring guide to creating patterns and graphic motifs. Originally published in 1902 as a resource for schoolteachers, the book is of both historical and current interest, offering advice on choosing paper, brushes and colours and on developing skills in line, tone and composition. Additionally, hundreds of black and white Edwardian designs taken from nature, textiles, pottery and architecture beautifully illustrate the artistic principles.
