Art Fundamentals: Theory and Practice
I've used this book for nearly a decade in its various editions, particularly for teaching freshman level courses in art and design. Regardless of the discipline, or even the level, the concepts and explanations are absolutely invaluable for translating what so many people (even veterans) assume is subjective quality into objective rational analysis of why a creative visual work may succeed or fail. Having absorbed the material in this book, my verbal critiques of student work have gained clarity and effectiveness. The same is true for the students who study the material - they too become excellent critics.
Highly recommended for teachers and students of all levels in art and design (advanced high school, and all college levels).
