A new, up-to-date edition of the popular and comprehensive encyclopedia by professional artist Judy Martin. Many manuals on pastel painting take for granted the use of traditional soft pastels, a dry medium that provides the richness and variety of paint colours. Soft pastel is certainly the most versatile and widely used, but the modern range of materials include other pastel types that have their own specific purpose. In this exhaustive A-Z reference for artists of all skills, a variety of different pastel types are detailed, from oil through to water-soluble pastels, amongst the multitude of techniques broken down and easily explained. The book itself is divided into two sections: the first provides step-by-step demonstrations that guide artists through a variety of techniques, from basic colour mixing through to creating special effects such as sgraffito and sfumato. The second part focuses on themes, illustrating how individual artists tackle a number of subjects, including natural landscapes, urban scenes, figures, animals and still life. This resource provides a wealth of stimulating ideas to help artists – both amateurs and veterans – develop their own pastel style.

Die Kunst der Hinterglasmalerei hatte ihre Blütezeit in den Jahren von 1550 bis 1850. In den kunsthandwerklichen Zentren – so unter anderem in Venetien, Tirol und Augsburg – entstanden damals zahlreiche Gemälde in dieser besonderen Technik, deren Vorlagen im Bereich der Druckgrafik zu finden sind. Während Hinterglasmalerei heute oft mit naiver Volkskunst in Ver-bindung gebracht wird, ist weitgehend in Vergessenheit geraten, dass sie in ihrer Hochzeit sehr qualitätvolle und von Kennern geschätzte Kunstwerke hervorgebracht hat, für die hohe Preise bezahlt wurden. Ihre thematische Vielfalt reicht von religiösen Darstellungen über mythologi-sche und allegorische Motive bis hin zu Genre, Porträt und Landschaftsmalerei. Der Band präsentiert weit über 150 Hinterglasgemälde, die erstmals in direkter Gegenüberstel-lung mit ihren grafischen Vorlagen veröffentlicht werden. Großformatige farbige Abbildungen aller Hinterglasbilder und Vorlagen ermöglichen, beide Künste unmittelbar zu vergleichen.

Explores the fundamentals required to understand, analyze, and implement space modulation techniques (SMTs) in coherent and non-coherent radio frequency environments This book focuses on the concept of space modulation techniques (SMTs), and covers those emerging high data rate wireless communication techniques. The book discusses the advantages and disadvantages of SMTs along with their performance. A general framework for analyzing the performance of SMTs is provided and used to detail their performance over several generalized fading channels. The book also addresses the transmitter design of these techniques with the optimum number of hardware components and the use of these techniques in cooperative and mm-Wave communications. Beginning with an introduction to the subject and a brief history, Space Modulation Techniques goes on to offer chapters covering MIMO systems like spatial multiplexing and space-time coding. It then looks at channel models, such as Rayleigh, Rician, Nakagami-m, and other generalized distributions. A discussion of SMTs includes techniques like space shift keying (SSK), space-time shift keying (STSK), trellis coded spatial modulation (TCSM), spatial modulation (SM), generalized spatial modulation (GSM), quadrature spatial modulation (QSM), and more. The book also presents a non-coherent design for different SMTs, and a framework for SMTs’ performance analysis in different channel conditions and in the presence of channel imperfections, all that along with an information theoretic treatment of SMTs. Lastly, it provides performance comparisons, results, and MATLAB codes and offers readers practical implementation designs for SMTs. The book also: Provides readers with the expertise of the inventors of space modulation techniques (SMTs) Analyzes error performance, capacity performance, and system complexity. Discusses practical implementation of SMTs and studies SMTs with cooperative and mm-Wave communications Explores and compares MIMO schemes Space Modulation Techniques is an ideal book for professional and academic readers that are active in the field of SMT MIMO systems.
