Ardizzone, Edward
Sketches for Friends
UK: John Murray 2000 Edward Ardizzone one of the 20th-century's best-loved illustrators could never resist filling his letters whether to family or friends with sketches and vignettes. This volume presents a selection of these illustrations. I first "met" Ardizzone through reading the Little Tim books & later through the books of Graves & Farjeon & a dozen others and how can you not love his fluid beautiful watercolours this book is a real treat. Info > Here is a selection of his letters envelopes and illustrations selected and edited by Judy Taylor longtime children's book editor at the Bodley Head and among Ardizzone's closest friends and correspondents. Whether from his diaries of a boat trip down the Thames his sketches of Italy Egypt North Africa and India or the simple and immediate drawings he would dash off while visiting friends and relatives these spontaneous gentle and vibrant sketches show him his life and the England he so loved at their best. Edward Ardizzone born in 1900 in French Indochina became a war artist during World War II. He illustrated more than twenty children's books including classics by Dickens Mark Twain Dylan Thomas and Christianna Brand's Nurse Matilda series. John Murray hardcover

Wildenstein, Daniel
Monet or the Triumph of Impressionism
Germany: Taschen Benedikt Verlag 1999 480 wonderful pp in great condition & close to 3kg to post. Along with Turner no artist has sought more than Claude Monet 1840-1926 to capture light itself on canvas. Of all the Impressionists it was the man Cezanne called "only an eye but my God what an eye!" who stayed completely true to the principle of absolute fidelity to the visual sensation painting directly from the object. It could be said that Monet reinvented the possibilities of colour and whether it was through his early interest in Japanese prints his time in the dazzling light of Algeria as a conscript or his personal acquaintance with the major painters of the late 1800s what Monet produced throughout his long life would change forever the way we perceive both the natural world and its attendant phenomena. The high point of his explorations were the late series of waterlilies painted in his own garden at Giverny that in their moves towards almost total formlessness are really the origin of abstract art. This biography does full justice to this most remarkable and profoundly influential of artists and offers numerous reproductions and archive photos alongside a detailed and insightful commentary. This book is a complementary evolvement of a four volume set originally published by Taschen. Review >> One of the best books on Monet a treasure for Impressionists fans. Highly recommended!

Thelwell, Norman
Wrestling with a Pencil The Life of a Freelance Artist
London: Methuen 1986 I can't do better than let you read this warm review >>> Norman Thelwell did in fact sell many of his paintings in his lifetime but his brilliant artistic talent was not widely known or appreciated. Luckily he became famous as a cartoonist so that his income from newspapers magazines and eventually books gave him a comfortable lifestyle. He was such a modest man. But to him drawing came easily. He said "I just draw what's in front of me" and could not understand why his friends were so impressed and did not have the same ability. From a very young age he carried a notebook and pencil and could scarcely stop himself from drawing everything he saw. At the age of about ten he asked his mother what he could draw having already done a house a boat and a car: busy with other things she said "Oh go and draw yourself then!" which was a novel idea to the young boy who went and did just that. The self-portait of his ten-year old self is marked probably by his teacher as "V Good indeed". This lovely book is packed with many examples of the exquisite drawings and watercolour paintings that he produced throughout his life. As a young man of about 19 he did a black and white pen and ink drawing of the interior of a church: the detail is extraordinary and this before he'd had any art training at all. After serving in the First World War he took the opportunity of attending art college as a relatively mature student; then a few years later became a teacher of art. Although he had a lively sense of humour and his ideas for cartoons came easily to him he says that his main interest and love throughout his life was the natural world. His depictions of landscapes trees flowers and animals are delightful and they all make this book hugely enjoyable. 192 crisp pp & about 800g packed to post - Thelwell Ardizzone Herge Lofting are Saints of the Pencil in my church.

Monet's Years at Giverny: Beyond Impressionism
UK: Windward 1978 182 pp just under a kilo to post. Claude Monet lived in rural Giverny from 1883 until his death in 1926. Many of the paintings that we most closely identify with his oeuvre were done on his property or in the neighborhood. Following his death the property deteriorated until its restoration was completed in the 1970s with the help of Lila Acheson Wallace of Reader's Digest fame. This book was created to in part to honor that restoration and the show that commemorated it. The show marked the beginning of a resurgence of interest in Monet that continues to grow. review >> It's beautiful the painting prints are amazing you won't be disappointed. Windward hardcover
