No matter what medium you are working in, you can create paintings that are interesting to your viewer, and here popular painter and instructor Tony Couch shows you how.\nThere are only a few simple principles of design and those principles are the foundation of any successful painting. Tony Couch shows you how to apply these principles to your paintings, virtually guaranteeing that your painting will be successful. Once you begin to understand and use the principles taught in this book, you can deliberately and consciously build them into your paintings. You'll learn to make your work interesting through color harmony, repetition, balance and dominance, but at the same time create visual appeal through variety, contrast, gradation and alternation.\nBecause Tony Couch reduces design to a few rules applied to a limited number of elements, you'll find his ideas easy to remember. And because there are so many paintings included here that illustrate these principles, you can see how they work in practice.\nAfter applying the lessons taught here to your own painting, you'll find that every painting you do will have more visual appeal - and lots of \"punch.\"\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0891344276\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0891344276.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Couch, Tony\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: This copy has clearly been enjoyed—expect noticeable shelf wear and some minor creases to the cover.
