About This Item
Pitman Publishing, 1978 Superb book about this superb painter. Harvey Dinnerstein is one of America's most respected painters and teachers, and his mastery of classical painting techniques has won the admiration of artists and students throughout America. In this richly illustrated book, Dinnerstein discusses his concepts, drawing and painting techniques, and the evolution of his personal approach to painting. Dinnerstein begins by describing his studio.lighting, books, easel, and antique casts and the story behind their acquisition.in a detailed description of his environment that becomes a kind of self-portrait in its own way. Then he devotes a full chapter to each of his favorite painting media.drawing, pastel, and oil.and his varied approaches to them. Next, in a stimulating and provocative chapter, Dinnerstein explores the creation of his pictorial ideas.from sketch to finished painting.including how his thoughts evolve from drawings into a painting or series of paintings; how he develops a point of view in a portrait; how he creates a theme; and how he paints a series of painting based on a particular theme, such as the seasons. Then Dinnerstein invites he reader to watch as he paints six 'works in progress' in oil and pastel, with every stage reproduced in full-color: a male and female nude, a portrait of a man and woman, an autumn cityscape, and a self-portrait. A gallery of his most brilliantly painted oil paintings, pastels, and drawings reveals the full scope of his technique. Firm text block, binding is cloth, jacket is protected, and there is a neat former owner signature with an elegant blind stamp on the front end paper.
