Description

Arthur L. Guptill’s classic Rendering in Pen and Ink has long been thought to be the most comprehensive book ever published in the case of ink drawing. This can be a book designed to delight and instruct somebody who draws with pen and ink, from the professional artist to the amateur and hobbyist. It’s of particular interest to architects, interior designers, landscape architects, industrial designers, illustrators, and renderers.

Contents include a review of materials and tools of rendering; handling the pen and building tones; value studies; kinds of outline and their uses; drawing objects in light and shade; handling groups of objects; basic principles of composition; the use of photographs, study of the work of well-known artists; on-the-spot sketching; representing trees and other landscape features; drawing architectural details; methods of architectural rendering; examination of outstanding examples of architectural rendering; solving viewpoint and other rendering problems; handling interiors and their accessories; and in spite of everything, special methods of working with pen including its use in combination with other media.

The book is profusely illustrated with over 300 drawings that come with the work of famous illustrators and renderers of architectural subjects such as Rockwell Kent, Charles Dana Gibson, James Sir Bernard Law Flagg, Willy Pogany, Reginald Birch, Harry Clarke, Edward Penfield, Joseph Clement Coll, F.L. Griggs, Samuel V. Chamberlain, Louis C. Rosenberg, John Floyd Yewell, Chester B. Price, Robert Lockwood, Ernest C. Peixotto, Harry C. Wilkinson, Bertram Grosvenor Goodhue, and Birch Burdette Long. Best of all, Arthur Guptill enriches the text with drawings of his own.
