In this beautifully illustrated book, Wyland shares his thoughts and meditations, inspired by great nature writers past and present, as a contribution to the conservation of our oceans.
Dive in... as Wyland, the world's leading environmental marine life artist, takes you on a captivating journey through his early days as a starving artist, his role in pioneering a bold new art movement & on a roller coaster tour of what may be the most ambitious project ever undertaken by a single artist. How did a son of Detroit auto workers break out of an industrial world to become a successful artist anyway? Why did he choose whales as his subjects? What has he seen in the countless dives that have placed him eye to eye with the largest & most mysterious creatures on earth? What's it like to stand on a scaffold 200 feet in the air & paint anatomically correct portraits of these majestic leviathans while awestruck citizens - both young & old - watch the sides of some of their most ordinary buildings transform right before their eyes into beautiful blue oceans teeming with colorful marine life? WHALE TALES answers these questions & much more through a series of Wyland's best stories - from both above & below the surface. Painting a ceiling in Japan on his back, creating the largest mural in the world, completing an entire whaling wall in the middle of the night, painting 17 murals, in 17 cities, in 17 weeks... each is a whale of a tale!

This origin story of history’s most vivid color pigments is perfect for artists, history buffs, science lovers, and design fanatics. Did you know that the Egyptians created the first synthetic color and used it to create the famous blue crown of Queen Nefertiti? Or that the noblest purple comes from a predatory sea snail? In the Roman Empire, hundreds of thousands of snails had to be sacrificed to produce a single ounce of dye. Throughout history, pigments have been made from deadly metals, poisonous minerals, urine, cow dung, and even crushed insects. From grinding down beetles and burning animal bones to alchemy and pure luck, Chromatopia reveals the origin stories behind over fifty of history’s most vivid color pigments. Featuring informative and detailed color histories, a section on working with monochromatic color, and “recipes” for paint-making, Chromatopia provides color enthusiasts with an eclectic story of how synthetic colors came to be. Red lead, for example, was invented by the ancient Greeks by roasting white lead, and it became the dominant red in medieval painting. Spanning from the ancient world to modern leaps in technology, and vibrantly illustrated throughout, this book will add a little chroma to anyone’s understanding of the history of colors.
The compelling story of over 5,000 years of Scottish art, told by Lachlan Goudie, renowned contemporary Scottish artist, broadcaster and presenter of BBC Four's 'The Story of Scottish Art'. This is the story of how Scotland has defined itself through its art over the past 5000 years, from the earliest enigmatic Neolithic symbols etched onto the landscape of Kilmartin Glen to Glasgow's fame as a centre of artistic innovation today. Lachlan Goudie brings his perspective and passion as a practising artist and broadcaster to narrate the joys and struggles of artists across the millennia striving to fulfil their vision and the dramatic transformations of Scottish society reflected in their art. The Story of Scottish Art is beautifully illustrated with the diverse artworks that form Scotland's long tradition of bold creativity: Pictish carved stones and Celtic metalwork; Renaissance palaces and chapels; paintings of Scottish life and landscapes by Horatio McCulloch, David Wilkie and Joan Eardley; designs by master architect Charles Rennie Mackintosh; and collage and sculpture by Pop Art pioneer Eduardo Paolozzi. Lachlan tells the compelling story of how and why these and many other Scottish masterpieces were created, and the impact they have had on the world.
