Like taking a lesson with the master himself, this introduction to the style and technique of Vincent Van Gogh is for beginners and more experienced painters alike. An unmatched master during the Postimpressionist period, Van Gogh’s style evokes a more expressive image, and this collection features an assortment of his most celebrated subjects—such as peasant farmers clearing their fields, a provincial village at dusk, a sunflower still-life, and the artist’s thatched-seat chair and pipe. Accompanying each project is a set of detailed photographs that demonstrate the unique short brushstrokes that Van Gogh employed for his most distinct style. Six reusable tracing papers are included, so establishing a balanced composition is quick and easy; and while Van Gogh worked mostly with oil paints, this resource translates his technique and colorization to the more utilitarian acrylic medium.
