Product Description:
How did Tiffany, George Rodrigue's beloved pet, become the Blue Dog? What secrets lie behind her soulful golden eyes? And why has this tale about a dog, her master, and his paintings inspired millions? STC's long-awaited reprint of Rodrigue's original Blue Dog book reveals the answers.

Through vibrant paintings, Rodrigue dramatizes Tiffany's transformation from a frisky and white-furred terrier/spaniel to Blue Dog. In the process, he illustrates the back and forth of both man and beast as they strive for true communication - a level of understanding that goes far beyond their differences. The text gives voice to Tiffany as well as George, and the terrier/spaniel's sharp, sophisticated sense of humor provides a completely unique perspective on the nature of love, art, and human behavior. Joyous and moving, Blue Dog is a must for any fan of Rodrigue's sublime canine companion.

Product Description:
Push Color Beyond the Ordinary

Let go of what you see, and paint what you feel! Brilliant Color reveals a new way of thinking about color, empowering you to push the envelope beyond ordinary realism into bold landscapes full of life and energy.

The transformation begins by learning to see color as value. Starting with short demos featuring diagrams, color wheels and side-by-side visual comparisons, award-winning artist Julie Gilbert Pollard shows you how to liberate your use of color to capture the lively essence of every landscape. It's not about complex color theory or painstaking attempts to paint exactly what you see. Rather, it's about pushing color to warmer or cooler extremes for stronger contrasts.

Julie's signature style blends acrylic underpainting with water-mixable oils to produce striking luminosity in less time and fewer layers than traditional oil painting techniques. Ten complete step-by-step demonstrations show you how to paint gorgeous landscapes with an inspiring range of settings and seasons.

Each in-depth demonstration features foolproof color mixing charts, reference photos, initial sketches, and numbered steps with detailed captions. Simply follow along and give it a try. In no time, you'll have what it takes to make your colors zing and your paintings glow.
