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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\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.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"David Gentleman","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67652865032370,"sku":"9781802065688","price":380.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0562\/9191\/8002\/files\/9781802065688-2.jpg?v=1791422265","url":"https:\/\/www.wordsworth.co.za\/products\/lessons-for-young-artists-paperback","provider":"Wordsworth Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
