Arthur L. Guptill's Drawing With Pen and Ink has been a landmark in the literature of ink technique for many years. The volume has gone through many printings and reached many thousands of students. It has been out of print for a number of years because the plates had become worn and a sharp reprint was no longer possible. A new edition would have entailed not only a complete new set of plates but the addition of new material. Fads, fashions and styles constantly affect the world of art and ink techniques have shown response to the times. Many ink drawings of today wear a different look from those of thirty years ago. A whole new company of artists has grown up with its own way of saying things.
In addition the cost of manufacturing has in?creased enormously during the last thirty years. A new book, the size of the original volume, would now have to be sold at a prohibitive price. So revision and condensation were necessities. Thinking of my long friendship with Arthur L. Guptill and remembering the way he thought and wrote has helped, I trust, in my revision of his text. A number of chapters have been com?bined; several, covered in other books, have been dropped; two, The Pen Combined With Other Mediums and Pen and Ink in Illustration, have been entirely re-written; and a short concluding chapter has been added. The greater part of Arthur Guptill's explanatory drawings as well as a good many examples of work by other artists have been retained. To this has been added almost a hundred examples of newer work. I am happy to have had a hand in again making this useful book available to students and lovers of the ink technique. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
