Featuring over eighty-eight masterfully crafted graphite pencil drawings, from California portrait artist David J. Vanderpool, ""Portfolio - A Collection of Graphite Pencil Drawings"" offers the reader just that. A collection of his works between 2005-2016, and a brief look into who the artist is. ""Brief""because this is actually a 'condensed' version to his autobiography-style book ""Pencil Drawings - A look into the Art of David J. Vanderpool"" where less is proven to be a good thing in this case. Less words but with a lot of drawings! Ranging from portraits to figure drawings, this book holds nothing back as it offers the reader a collection of the artist's more sought after, award winning drawings. Yes, that means that viewer discretion is advised to those not interested in seeing drawings depicting adult male nudity.
Starting off with the artist's top winning pencil drawings from 2010 through 2012, this autobiography style book allows the reader an opportunity to not only learn the process it took to complete most of his drawings created between 2008-2013, but offers a personal look into who the artist is as a man. From portraits to figure drawings, David J. Vanderpool shares how simple pencil lines can be used to create masterfully crafted drawings - all while working through obstacles he would later encounter as an artist. Proving that ""art isn't always about who the artist is, but rather who catches his attention at that moment."" Although the drawings are created using black and white graphite, the pages here are full color glossy. Making the perfect Collector's Edition, as it picks up where the second edition left off in 2013. Sharing many of his drawings created in 2014 and 2015. VIEWER DISCRETION IS ADVISED: This book contains adult male nudity.

With over ten black and white graphite pencil drawings, "Pencil Drawings for mature artists", featuring the works in progress of several of the artist's latest drawings from 2018 to 2020. Unlike his earlier books which simply showcase many of his drawings up to the time of publication, this book goes into detail explaining how each drawing was created - using all lines and crosshatching and never using a traditional stump to blend the graphite.
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A “brilliant [and] entrancing” (The Guardian) journey into the hidden lives of fungi—the great connectors of the living world—and their astonishing and intimate roles in human life, with the power to heal our bodies, expand our minds, and help us address our most urgent environmental problems. “Grand and dizzying in how thoroughly it recalibrates our understanding of the natural world.”—Ed Yong, author of An Immense World ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR—Time, BBC Science Focus, The Daily Mail, Geographical, The Times, The Telegraph, New Statesman, London Evening Standard, Science Friday When we think of fungi, we likely think of mushrooms. But mushrooms are only fruiting bodies, analogous to apples on a tree. Most fungi live out of sight, yet make up a massively diverse kingdom of organisms that supports and sustains nearly all living systems. Fungi provide a key to understanding the planet on which we live, and the ways we think, feel, and behave. In the first edition of this mind-bending book, Sheldrake introduced us to this mysterious but massively diverse kingdom of life. This exquisitely designed volume, abridged from the original, features more than one hundred full-color images that bring the spectacular variety, strangeness, and beauty of fungi to life as never before. Fungi throw our concepts of individuality and even intelligence into question. They are metabolic masters, earth makers, and key players in most of life’s processes. They can change our minds, heal our bodies, and even help us remediate environmental disaster. By examining fungi on their own terms, Sheldrake reveals how these extraordinary organisms—and our relationships with them—are changing our understanding of how life works. Winner of the Wainwright Prize, the Royal Society Science Book Prize, and the Guild of Food Writers Award • Shortlisted for the British Book Award • Longlisted for the Rathbones Folio Prize
Om portrætter af den franske maler Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres (1780-1867)
The original Getty Museum, housed in a replica of a Roman Villa on a site overlooking the Pacific Ocean, is one of Los Angeles's most treasured landmarks. Closed for almost ten years while renovations were made to the building and the site itself was transformed into a center for the study of antiquities and conservation, the Getty Villa is now set to open late in 2005. The Getty Villa is a lively history of the Getty Museum, its renowned antiquities collections, and its growth from a small museum in a ranch house in Malibu to its first home in a building designed to replicate what we know of the Villa dei Papiri, an ancient Roman villa partially uncovered in Herculaneum. Most engagingly, this book records the ten-year adventure in reconfiguring a beautiful, but topographically challenging, site into one that could continue to accommodate the splendid Museum building and also provide for an outdoor theater, laboratories for conservation work and research, offices for staff and visiting scholars, and an education program for adults and children. This is a story of architectural imagination, geographical challenges, and legal hurdles, all of which have resulted in a truly unique and beautiful site. The story is an enlightening and rewarding one for anyone interested in architecture and in the difficulties posed by building on a grand scale in the twenty-first century. Beautifully illustrated throughout, the book includes 250 reproductions of works of art, photographs of both the old and the new Getty Museum, site plans, and architectural elevations.
The first comprehensive history of late medieval printmaking, which transformed image production and led to profound changes in Western culture
"The works from the Bonna Collection are illustrated in color, and whenever possible, at their actual sizes. They are arranged chronologically by the artist's date of birth and are grouped according to the main artistic schools. This volume is introduced by an interview with Jean Bonna by George Goldner. Each drawing is then described in an entry, many of which have comparative illustrations that shed further light on individual works."--BOOK JACKET.
