Leonardo da Vinci's angel that can be seen within his masterpiece, the Virgin of the Rocks is arguably more difficult to paint than his more renowned piece, the Mona Lisa. One only has to view this exquisite portrait painting to see why. The angel's face is not only inclined, but orientated in a three-quarter view, posing challenges in rendering her features. The lighting is subtle yet full of drama and colour. Shadows shift in ethereal ways; greens and crimsons condense between light and shadow. And the hair resembles spun gold. How can the developing portraitist take on such a challenge? This book offers guidance via a breakdown of this project into manageable pieces, providing an invaluable experience for any portraitist. The chief section of this book comprises step by step images and instructions on how the angel was completed. Find also an in-depth section on overcoming common pitfalls when rendering the three-quarter portrait view, guidance on the art materials and conducting the underpainting. Also explored is shading technique, colour blending, glazing systems, sfumato application and achieving high detail. A troubleshooting guide and glossary are also included. A challenging yet rewarding project on achieving Da Vinci's early Renaissance style by the use of modern and simple art materials. Book's dimensions: 8x10in and 48 pages. Colour illustrations throughout.

This is the first book dedicated to Leonardo da Vinci’s commission for The Virgin of the Rocks. Leonardo completed fewer than twenty paintings in his lifetime, yet he returned twice to this same mysterious subject over the course of a twenty-five year period. Identical in terms of iconography, stylistically these paintings are worlds apart. The first, of c.1482-4, was Leonardo’s magnum opus, catapulting the young artist from obscurity to fame. When, in 1508, he finished the second painting, he was nearing the end of his artistic career and had become an international celebrity. Why did he revisit The Virgin of the Rocks? What was the meaning behind the cavernous subterranean landscape? What lies behind the colder monumentality of the second version? This book opens up Leonardo’s world, setting the scene in Republican Florence and the humanist court of the Milanese warlord Ludovico Sforza, to answer these questions. Through lyrical yet scholarly analyses of Leonardo’s paintings, notebooks and technical experimentation, it unveils the secret realms of human dissection and Neo-Platonic philosophy that inspired the creation of the two masterpieces. In doing so, the book reveals that The Virgin of the Rocks holds the key to the greatest philosophical, scientific and personal transformations of Leonardo’s life.

The aim of this book is to get the beginner to draw. And then to venture onto subject matter unforeseen. Within this book, you will find 8 exercises and 8 drawing projects – two elements if you will. The exercises serve as the setup for the drawing projects. And the drawing projects are the subject matter themselves. A variety of topics can be found within, from big skies and silhouettes to beach stones, a horse’s head and figures. Interim exercises serve to make these projects feel more ‘doable’. It all begins with simple mark-making. The exercises then progress onto devising frames, drawing symmetry, jigsaw pieces, negative space, abstract shapes and more. Preliminary chapters explain the principles of drawing and the equipment required. Demonstrations then follow with clear step by step instructions with abundant images to make the projects easier. But the initial aim of this book is take that first step. This can form the biggest stumbling block. Only then can the journey into drawing begin.

Both collectively and individually we have a deep and abiding fascination with angels. This book explores depictions of angels in the visual arts and in scripture and associated apocryphal and mystical writings, specifically in the Hebrew and Christian Bibles and Islamic, Zoroastrian and other ancient and latter-day accounts. It examines the visual clues, artistic conventions and attributes that have been set down to help us to recognise angels in their particular roles and functions. Certain writings have had a particularly influential bearing on our understanding of angels. This text focuses on the hierarchies and orders proposed by the likes of Pseudo-Dionysius, St. Thomas Aquinas and others. In a new age of fascination with the metaphysical and supernatural (in film, television, popular mythology and literature), are we cementing or losing our connection with the authentic meaning and purpose that such vibrant and energised beings bring to our table? This book contains more than 30 illustrations in a central colour plates section. It also includes a useful glossary of terms and will prove a rich and enduring reference resource for libraries, as well as a stimulating go-to source for those interested in the world of angels and how human sensibilities and imaginative reasoning have enriched the subject, as a starting point for interreligious dialogue.
