A hungry badger has his eye on a delicious sandwich, but as it gets passed between animals it gets dropped into sand, pond slime, an ants' nest and various other disgusting things. Will the badger get it in the end? And if he does, will he still want to eat it?
A very bad bear is looking for a filling for his fabulous pie. The other animals bring him their favourite foods, but the bear has a better idea for what to put in the pie... the animals themselves! Gareth Edwards and Guy Parker-Rees, the creators of NEVER ASK A DINOSAUR TO DINNER (9781407136936), are on fine form with this romp through the forest.
Fed up with being jostled around by her brothers and sisters and not getting any attention, the Littlest Bird goes in search of the perfect nest, which seems to be empty - apart from an egg
Abstract landscape painting expresses emotion while still capturing the essence of a landscape. This compelling book explores this suggestive style first developed by Turner. Using the hauntingly-beautiful paintings of Gareth Edwards, it explores the technical, historical and psychological dimensions of abstract landscape painting to help you develop your own skilful and intensely personal approach. Through this new book you can learn about how to begin an abstract landscape painting, using chance application; understand how to 'manage accidents' to create innovative pieces of work; discover the importance of effective composition and how this navigates the viewer's journey; determine the importance of the 'invisible' elements of painting: the unspoken value of the viewer and the influence of 'looking'. It also reveals how to utilize a convergence of linear and atmospheric perspective to help your viewer traverse the picture plane and helps you understand the importance of light, space, colour, and tone in generating evocative paintings. Finally, it encourages you to be more demanding of your surface, using textural techniques and glazing to achieve professional production values. It is a unique and exciting book into this under-documented genre.
