Expand description
According to this time-honored system, successful art is based on balanced energies and the control of contrasting elements within a work. This remarkably simple approach is presented in two seamless parts. Part One examines the traditional elements of painting -- from value (light/dark) and texture (thick/thin) to color (warm/cold) and brushwork (sharp/blurred) -- as evolving from a true balance of opposites. Part Two's step-by-step demonstrations focus on major genres of painting -- still life, landscape, and the figure -- employing all the yin-yang principles for the completion of successful paintings.
