Measures 8-1/2"x11" Addresses both the beginner and the more experienced artist on two very specific topics -- concept and composition --both of which are often overlooked in art instruction.

It is not a how-to book, but a pre-how-to which explains the fundamental thinking process artists need to understand and employ as they begin a piece of art. To help illustrate these ideas he calls upon artists such as Norman Rockwell, Ben Shahn, Ben Stahl, Austin Briggs, Claude Croney and many others by showing their rough sketches, as well as their finished work, and also, when possible, quoting their own words to explain how they arrived at their ideas and translated them into visual form. 208 pages.
