Classical Painting Atelier

Want to paint more like Manet and less like Jackson Pollock? <p/>Students of art hailed <i>Classical Drawing Atelier</i> Juliette Aristides's first book as a dynamic return to the atelier educational model. Ateliers popular in the nineteenth century teach emerging artists by pairing them with a master artist over a period of years. The educational process begins as students copy masterworks then gradually progress to painting as their skills develop. The many artists at every level who learned from <i>Classical Drawing Atelier</i> have been clamoring for more of this sophisticated approach to teaching and learning. In <i>Classical Painting Atelier </i> Aristides a leader in the atelier movement takes students step-by-step through the finest works of Old Masters and today's most respected realist artists to reveal the principles of creating full-color realist still lifes portraits and figure paintings. Rich in tradition yet practical for today's artists <i>Classical Painting Atelier </i>is ideal for serious art students seeking a timeless visual education.
