Juliette Aristides, though a wondeful figurative studio drawer, has disappointed.

I bought on the basis of believing Aristides being the most outstanding American studio figurative drawer. I was going to give it to my grandson. Some will say that Jacob Collins is better than she. Years ago, prior to the "demise" or "destruction" of our national juried annual exhibitions, The Corcoran, The Carnegie, The PAFA, The N.A.D., probably a Chicago one also, we the public had a democratic opportunity to see the work of virtually all outstanding young artists who were working within the millenia old Realist, call it tradition; due to lack of greater competence, or a thesaurus. There are many who draw very well. It is no longer possible to survey them all. Some drawers such as Syd McGinley, the artist of the especially wonderful Lillies on page 21, draw "oranges" not "apples". And there is no need to compare. Occasionally "Artists" magazine has a quality article on someone exceptional. The annual Allied Artists of America juried show each year contains some outstanding works. The best American painters of today, Jeffrey Ripple, Daniel Sprick, David Kassam, Steve Wilda.... I'm sure that there are many others, Murphy, Lofquist, Bougeous (sic?), would be far better known but for the absence of the great juried shows of 60+- years ago. The American public, denied seeing surveys of new work by the country's best, is the most unfortunate loser,
Unfortunately Aristides' book falls far below expectations. The concepts presented ignore the student being an artist, (rhem was born that way, or maybe it started with the childhood trauma). They are geared to a class of artless wonderers. "Finding governing lines" - that is misleading, intrusive. Without passion there is no art. No artist is going to love "governing lines". Both Aristide and McGinley were once enrolled in the atelier of the autocratic "teacher", Myron Barnstone. Lucky were those who managed to escape before it was too late. Back to the book. The reproductions are overly reduced in size. The paper is too fuzzy for good image reproduction. It was probably chosen for its possible suitability for pencil drawing practice. The text, often pointless or misguided, is written too much in a vernacular mode. The possessive pronoun "your" used a substitute for the article "the" diminishes. To the unknowing the book should appear suitable to be given as a gift that will be politely accepted .

I don't know how this happened to this book but it arrived with torn pages. Not happy after spending the money on this book!
