This exciting new book from first-time author Hashim Akib (2009 SAA Artist of the Year) is much more about the process of painting than it is about the mechanics of applying paint. As Hashim says, The best tool for learning to paint is to paint, & his colourful & fluent artworks can't fail to encourage you to do just that. The book is filled with tips & demonstrations, but also with light, colour & urgency that all fully justify the use of Vibrant in the title. Hashim paints in a heavy impasto style that creates a sense of movement & vitality to subjects that include landscapes, portraits, buildings & animals. Intriguingly, he also works from a coloured ground that sets off the overpainting that follows, bringing everything forward as a result & giving real depth to light & shade. In the portrait project, Hashim describes the importance of acclimatising to the scene by creating colour layers, giving depth & texture. His urban-scape project is a great example of how to break a complex scene down into simple, manageable shapes. Book: Search Press. Paperback. 128 Pages.
