  • Moche Fineline Painting From San Jose De Moro

    Cotsen Institute of Archaeology at UCLA Moche Fineline Painting From San Jose De Moro

    Book SynopsisMoche civilization flourished on the north coast of Peru from AD 200 to 800. Although the Moche had no writing system, they left a vivid artistic record of their beliefs and activities on intricately painted ceramic vessels, several thousand of which are scattered in museums and private collections throughout the world today. Unfortunately, nearly all were looted by grave robbers so their origin and context are unknown. In recent years, however, through a combination of archaeological excavation and stylistic analysis, it has been possible to identify more than 250 painted vessels from the site of San Jose de Moro. To date, this is the largest sample of Moche art from a single place and time. Thus it provides a unique opportunity to identify a distinct sub-style of Moche ceramics, and to assess its range of artistic and technological variation. Moreover, within the sample it is possible to identify multiple paintings by 18 different artists, thus elucidating the range of subject matter that an artist would paint, as well as the variation in the way he would portray the same scene. By discussing and illustrating more than 200 painted vessels from San Jose de Moro, this volume provides insights about a community of ancient Peruvian potters who shared a distinctive painting style and left a fascinating record of their achievement.

    Book SynopsisTrade ReviewThis book takes on the debate around what makes ceramics an art form and how it has developed. The ‘vessel’, it seems, is a contentious word in ceramics. The book has noted, debates surrounding the validity of the term reveal ‘tensions about the relative value of the pot, the vessel and the object, and the status between the useful and the useless in the art world. The debate as to whether ceramics should be regarded as ‘art’ or ‘craft’ . A very thoughtful read. -- Paul Bailey, Emerging Potters Magazine Oct-Dec 23 * Emerging Potters Magazine Oct-Dec 23 *

    Book SynopsisStained glass painting is a technique for painting on glass to simulate the look of stained glassno cutting or assembly required.Trade ReviewMay 2015 Always admired stained glass but thought it looked too challenging and expensive to do? Why not cheat a little and paint on the glass instead! You don’t have to invest in lots of tools to create the look of stained glass and you can do it to bring more surfaces to life than just windows. As the author says in the foreword this is a book full of ideas. You just need to buy paints, brushes and something to paint on plus something to prepare the surface. Chapters in the book cover the basics as well as more interesting techniques such as adding glitter, mixing colors and achieving all those fancy textures that you see on glass such as frosting, waves, stencilled patterns and pictures etc. The pictures show remarkably professional work that would make me think it was bought from a glazier. There are twenty five projects in here to make once you know the basics; all shown on a two page selector with thumb nail images. These vary from windows to trays, boxes, ornaments, mirrors and greetings cards. Each project features a large photo of the finished piece plus staged photos and drawings, a list of materials and techniques used (the latter particularly handy). This all makes for some pretty foolproof work and the end results look impressive. Designs include flowers, abstracts, comical, seasonal and even the ubiquitous cupcake. At the back are the full sized patterns as well as lists of Pebeo paints, mixing charts, troubleshooting and even a few blank pages for your own designs. Stackpole also produces a range of pattern books and one of these is Birds of the Beach (ISBN 9780811714716). This book has patterns for twenty birds you are likely to find on a beach, particularly if you live in the US although there are quite a few here also found in the UK. Choose from herring gull, snadpiper, dunlin, sanderling, puffin and more. Each project features a line drawing plus full sized picture of what you hope it is going to look like. There are no other instructions, these are all in the main book. Other titles include other birds, leaves and flowers. * Myshelf.com *Table of ContentsStained glass painting is a technique for painting on glass to simulate the look of stained glass - no cutting or assembly required. This book features all the information you need to make a piece of beautiful faux stained glass and also contains projects for working on less common surfaces, such as a mirror, a sheet of acetate, or a block of wood.
