Most of us stop when we get older - but David Gentleman kept going. For over ninety years he has been drawing, painting, engraving and printing, rising to become one of Britain's best-known and most loved artists. His watercolours have filled galleries; his iconic wood cuts are emblazoned across posters, book jackets and train stations; his stamps have made their way to the furthest corners of the world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHere, the great, polymathic artist and craftsman shares what he has learned over the course of a lifetime of making and thinking about art. Unlike his contemporaries, Gentleman was never a teacher; his lessons are a sequence of unconventional prompts and reflections that will deepen how you think about art and the world around you.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSincere, practical and unpretentious, Gentleman's insights are a breath of fresh air. Here are new ways to focus, notice the world and cultivate your own style; techniques to evolve your work, from playing with time to painting in bad weather; methods for getting the most out of mistakes and negative criticism; and, above all, reminders to return, always, to the simple delights of creativity.","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46726950944926,"sku":"UBD-9780241692813","price":44.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9780241692813.jpg?v=1776490836","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9780241692813","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
