White

Many people crave a creative outlet, but more often than not, don't know where to start. In White, Valentina Zucchi and Francesca Zoboli invite you to nurture your creativity and build your confidence by taking inspiration from works of art that celebrate the silent and tidy colour of white.

White could be considered a non-colour, since it often suggests an absence of something. In fact, the reverse is true: white contains everything, even all the other colours. It has many shades, from chalk to snow white, and is found everywhere, from clouds to wedding dresses. Throughout the book, Valentina and Francesca provide creative and fun prompts many based on famous works of art which will encourage you to draw or paint on the pages using various techniques. Packed with inspiration from the world's most celebrated artists, including Paul Klee, Michelangelo, Claude Monet and more, you will discover the many shades of white and just some of the ways it can be used to convey meaning.

White is a short course in unlocking your creative self perfect for budding artists of all ages who are keen to try out different techniques and materials and begin their artistic journey.

Valentina Zucchi was born in 1977 in Biella, Piedmont. She first graduated in History of Modern Art and then in Conservation of Cultural Heritage and has been working on the relationship between museums and visitors ever since. Valentina has lived in Florence since 2004, where she devotes herself to enhancing the collection of The Florentine Civic Museum, which is where the idea for this series of books about colours come from.
