Features: Engaged in the duties of "teaching, instructing, and resolving doubts" for nearly two decades with a somewhat sweet experience, perhaps due to frequent immersion in a vibrant and innocent world, sometimes I truly feel as passionate as young people. When looking back and counting the footsteps of my journey, I realize that although they are crooked, they don’t cause shame. Now, what the author can do their best is to weave the experiences into a gentle stream to nurture budding seedlings or already blooming flowers.
Building on the success of the previous question-and-answer format, this book Teaching and Answering in Still Life Sketching also adopts this approach, primarily written for art beginners and college students. During the writing process, every effort was made to start from the basics, focus on details, solidify foundations, cover a wide range of topics, and provide rich content. To make the explanations of sketching more visual, the book includes numerous illustrations and sample drawings. Considering the readership, the selected range includes both famous paintings from ancient and modern times as well as outstanding works by senior university students. The sole purpose is to help readers not only gain solid fundamental knowledge but also guide their technical practice and even improve their artistic appreciation through reading this book. In short, the goal is to ensure readers gain something valuable after reading it.
