More About the Author
Product Description
Synopsis
Nearly twenty years after its first publication, Graham Rust's "The Painted House" has become an invaluable sourcebook of trompe l'oeil images for interior designers, artists, and students. Now Rust has created more than 100 new patterns for murals, panels, alcoves and doors, over doors, folding screens, and chimney boards. As with "The Painted House", Rust's intention is to provide designs for copying as much as inspiration, so each drawing is reproduced in as much detail as possible. Classical and modern images mingle in this collection, which includes landscapes, animals, fish and flowers, baskets, pots, drapery, trellises, and foliage, providing ideas for mural decoration, whether done personally or through the hands of an artist. Revisiting "The Painted House" is a tour de force of sketches, drawings, and completed works- with more than 200 colour illustrations - destined to become a classic.

Format:Hardcover
Follow-up book to the Painted House. Well laid out with great photographs of the finished works. The text and many of beautiful watercolour sketches offer insight to the authors work and designs for his own house as well as many others. Final chapters cover techniques the author uses to create his marvellous finished works. Great for offering inspiration- I planning a panel in my spare bedroom, though of course it will not be as well executed as the works shown in this book. Otherwise, it is a lovely coffee table book if not being owned by an aspiring artist, such as myself.
