Nathan Goldstein - From the Perspective category:
Perspective should be learned – and then forgotten. The residue – a sensitivity to perspective – helps perception, varying with each individual and determined by his responsive needs. (Nathan Goldstein)
Nathan Goldstein - From the Style category:
One of the characteristics of great drawings is the artist's whole-hearted acceptance of his own style and character. It is as if the drawing says for the artist, 'Here I am.' (Nathan Goldstein)
Nathan Goldstein - From the Tones category:
The inherent lightness or darkness of a form – its local-tone – is a given quality of all forms. It is affected by, but separate from, the light and dark areas that result from light falling on forms. (Nathan Goldstein)
Nathan Goldstein - From the Tones category:
The local-tone is the intrinsic value of a thing – excluding any effects of light. The local-tone of a common pearl is very nearly white; that of a lump of coal, nearly black. (Nathan Goldstein)
Nathan Goldstein - From the Values category:
Value, whether the result of massed lines, broad strokes, or washes, is the necessary and (except for color) only tool for modelling form with light. (Nathan Goldstein)
Nathan Goldstein - From the Values category:
Value gives the artist the means of showing subtle changes in a form's surface-state, and it helps clarify the relative distance between forms. (Nathan Goldstein)
