Artists - illustrators of children's books. Artists - illustrators of favorite children's books

Every actor dreams to remove your own movie, and each children's illustrator - Write your book. Or vice versa - each children's writer I would like to illustrate my book myself. Whatever it was, some damn it is good.

We understand in the "little stories" how important it is that the writer's idea and the vision of the artist resonate - otherwise it will be false, which children recognize only if. So that such a sadness does not happen, we carefully prescribe in the task for the artist every character and every scene - even movement and the facial expressions of the heroes. If you follow our pages in Facebook and In contact with , you know how seriously we are serious.

Today we will show the work of children's writers who themselves illustrated their books.

Antoine de Saint-Exupery

Everybody knows " Little Prince"And the recognizable romantic image - a boy with straw hair stands on a small ball of his own planet. And this, meanwhile, hand-created by the author.

Exupery was a test pilot, a military correspondent, received a number of literary premiums for the novels written by them, but we will forever remember the image of this young philosopher:

Sven Nurdquist

The thoroughness and love with which the Swedish writer draws illustrations for his own books causes genuine admiration. You look at the number of details in the old man's workshop!

The books of Nurdquist, perhaps, can not even read at all - but only infinitely look at these stunning drawings with a million details. And be sure to find it on every small kitten Findus!

Lewis Carroll

Scandinavian writers probably have a special gift for illustration. So, if you did not know, Tuva Jansson itself came up with and painted the famous mumi trolls (and all-all drawings in their own books).

In the near future, her books began to adapt for theater, produce souvenir products and toys characters in the writer illustrations. This gave Tuva Jansson huge revenues, and soon made one of richest people Finland. The writer was even able to buy their own island, where she was subsequently hidden from annoying journalists.

Joanne Rowling

The most "Tale of the Three Brothers", which appeared in the last book of the Cycle about Harry Potter, and four more magic fairy tales enter the book of Barda Barda's fairy tales, which the writer personally illustrated. Maybe she did it did not so colorfully, like a professor Tolkien, but it is worth giveing \u200b\u200bher due.

Famous on books and films scene: Three brothers meet the death, which was combined:

John R.R. Tolkien

Today, Tolkien's books are no longer so amazed by the scale and workout of the world, but the writer became a phonod of classical fantasy and at one time committed a real revolution.

Illustration of a professor, be it light watercolors or pencil sketches, and today looks awesomely suitable spirit of the Mediterranea:

The writer worked in detail not only languages, culture, cards and landscape, but also made sketches of characters.

Beatrice Potter

Beatris was initially an illustrator, and only then took up writing art. I must say, and that, and the other it turns out fantastically well.

Cresan Cowell

All famous cartoon "How to tame a dragon" would not be so charming if it were not for the visual style laid down by the writer itself. Her illustrations are naive, children's, but incredible charming.

Recognize Iking and Night Fouria?

Tomi Winherger

The first book of the writer "The Adventures of the Hrullopce Family" with very stylish and funny author's illustrations, came out in Russia only in 2010, but already managed to conquer his fans.

Chris Riddell

Illustrations for "Emperor Absurdia" and other works

Chris Riddell is not only a famous British illustrator and author, but also the political cartoonist of the London newspaper The Observer.

Illustration to the "Air Pirates" cycle, written by Chris in collaboration with another writer, showing the local world called "Edge":

Conclusion

As we see, the multifaceted talent of children's writers are often closely as part of the literature only. It and for the better - after all, the author's own drawings give the most reliable reflection of his design.

As always, our small illustrated (and animated!) Stories can be downloaded here:

The artistic legacy of the wizard is not exhausted only by book graphics. A. F. Pakhomov - author of monumental paintings, picturesque canvases, Machine graphics: drawings, watercolors, numerous etampists, among which the exciting lists of the Leningrad series in the days of the blockade. However, it happened that in the literature about the artist there was an inaccurate idea of \u200b\u200bthe genuine scale and time of his activity. Sometimes the lighting of his work began only from the works of the mid-30s, and sometimes later - with a series of lithographs of the military years. Such a limited approach was not only narrowing and dreamed of an idea of \u200b\u200bthe original and bright heritage of A. F. Pakhomov, who created for half a century, but also impoverished Soviet art as a whole.

The need for a study of creativity A. F. Pakhomov has long been abandoned. The first monograph appeared in the mid-30s. Naturally, only part of the works was considered in it. Despite this, and on some limitations in the understanding of traditions, peculiar to that time, the work of the first biographer V. P. Anikayeva retained the value from the factual side, as well as (with the necessary adjustments) conceptually. In the essays that came out in the 50s about the artist, the coverage of the material of the 20s - 30s turned out to be narrower, and the coverage of the consequent periods was more selective. Today, the descriptive and appraisal side of the works about A. F. Pakhomov, distant from us by two decades, seems largely lost persuasiveness.

In the 60s, A. F. Pakhomov wrote the original book "About his work." The book clearly showed the fallacy of a number of existing ideas about his work. The artist's thoughts made in this work on time and art, as well as the extensive material of records of conversations with Alexey Fedorovich Pakhomov, made by the author of these lines, helped creating the proposed monograph readers.

A. F. Pakhomov belongs to an extremely large number of paintings and graphics. Without claiming their exhaustive lighting, the author of the monograph considered its task to give an idea of \u200b\u200bthe main parties to the master's work, about its wealth and originality, about teachers and colleagues who contributed to the formation of art A. F. Pakhomov. Citizenship, deep vitality, realism peculiar to the works of the artist, allowed to show the development of his work in a permanent and close connection with the life of the Soviet people.

Being one of the largest masters of Soviet art, A. F. Pakhomov carried on all his doubt of life and creative path of hot love for his homeland, to her people. High humanism, truthfulness, richness and make it works by such spiritual, sincere, full of warmth and optimism.

In the Vologda region near the city of Kadnikov on the banks of the river, the village of Varlamov was spread. There, on September 19 (October 2), 1900, the peasant of Efimi Petrovna Pakhomoy was born a boy, who was called Alexei. His father, Fedor Dmitrievich, took place from the "specific" landpashers who did not know the horrors of serfdom. This circumstance played not the last role in the lifeguard and prevailing characteristics of the character, the ability to stay simply, calmly, with dignity. They also rooted the features of special optimistic, the latitude of views, mental directness, responsiveness. Alexey was brought up in an employment situation. Lived not burning. As in the whole village, there was not enough bread to spring, it was necessary to buy it. Additional earnings were required, who were engaged in adult family members. One of the brothers was Kamenotes. Many fellow villagers were cargo. Nevertheless, the early hours of life remembered young Alexey as the most joyful. After biennial training in a christmas school, and then two more years - in the Zemstvo School in the neighboring village, he was sent "to a stateless account and on the government charachi" in the Higher Primary School in the city of Kadnikov. The time of classes there remained in the memory of A. F. Pakhomova as very heavy and hungry. "Since my careless childhood in from the house, "He said," it was forever to seem to me the happiest and poetry time, and this poetization of childhood later became the main motive in my work. " Alexey's art abilities manifested themselves early, although where he lived, there were no conditions for their development. But even in the absence of teachers, the boy achieved certain results. The neighboring landowner V. Zubov drew attention to his talent and presented the alea pencils, paper and reproduction from paintings by Russian artists. Early Pakhomov drawings, preserved to the present day, find what subsequently, being enriched by professional skill, will be characteristic of his work. A little artist fascinated a man's image and primarily a child. He draws brothers, sister, neighbor children. Interestingly, the rhythm of the lines of these frequency pencil portraits Ensharge with the drawings of its mature pore.

In 1915, by the end of the school of the city of Kadnikov, on the suggestion of the county leader of the nobility of Yu. Zubov, local art lovers declared a subscription and the money collected sent Pakhomov to Petrograd to the school A. L. Stiglitsa. With the revolution, the changes and to the life of Alexey Pakhomov. Under the influence of new teachers who appeared in the school, N. A. Tyrsov, M. V. Dobuzhinsky, S. V. Chekhonin, V. I. Shujaeva - He seeks to deeper to understand the tasks of art. Short-term learning under the guidance big Masters Figure Shujaeva gave him a lot of valuable. These classes laid the foundations of the structure human body. He sought to a deep study of anatomy. Pakhomov was convinced of the need to not copy the surrounding, but in meaningful to portray him. Drawing, he got used to not depend on black-free conditions, but no matter how to "illuminate" nature with its own eye, leaving bright close parts of the volume and the prettier one that are more distant. "True," the artist noticed at the same time, "I didn't become a faithful Shukhaev, that is, I did not draw Sangina, sinking it with a rubber band so that the human body looked spectacular." We were useful, as Pakhomov recognized, the lessons of the visible artists of the book - Dobuzhinsky and Chekhonin. He especially remembered the last advice: to seek the ability to write fonts on the book cover at once with a brush, without a preparatory mark with a pencil, "as an address on the envelope." According to the artist, such a development of the desired chammerator helped subsequently in the sketches from nature, where he could, starting with some detail, place all depicted on the sheet.

In 1918, when it was impossible to live in a cold and hungry petrograd without permanent earnings, Pakhomov went home, enrolling the teacher of drawing to school in Kadnikov. These months brought tremendous benefits to replenish his education. After lessons in the classroom and the second stage, he greedily read, while the light allowed and the eyes were not tired. "All the time was in an excited state, I was covered by the fever of knowledge. In front of me, the whole world was revealed, which I, it turns out, almost did not know, - recalled the steven steams. - I took the February and October revolutions with joy, like most people, surrounding me, but only now, reading books on sociology, political economy, historical materialism, history, I began to truly understand the essence of the events that happened. "

Before the young men, the treasures of science and literature were opened; It was quite natural that his intention to continue in Petrograd interrupted training. In a familiar building in Salo Lane, he began to engage in N. A. Tyrsa, who was then the Commissioner of the former School of Stiglitz. "We, students of Nikolai Andreevich, was very surprised by his costume," Pakhomov told. - The commissioners of those years wore leather caps and jackets with a flaw and Nagan in Cobur, and Tyrsa walked with a cane and in the bowler. But his conversations about art listened to his breath. " The head of the workshop witnessed the obsolete views on painting, introduced students with the achievements of impressionists, with the experience of postpressionism, unbelievably attracted attention to the search, which are visible in the works of Van Gogh and especially Cezanne. The clear program of the future art of Tyrs did not advance, from those engaged in his workshop, he demanded immediacy: Write the way you feel. In 1919, Pakhomov called on the Red Army. He closely learned unfamiliar to this military environment, I understood genuinely people's character The army of the country of the Councils, which later affected the interpretation of this topic in his work. In the spring of next year, demobilized after the disease of Pakhomov, arriving in Petrograd, moved from the workshop of N. A. Tyrsi to V. V. Lebedev, deciding to obtain an idea of \u200b\u200bthe principles of cubism, which was reflected in a number of works of Lebedev and his students. From the works of Pakhomov, completed at this time, a little preserved. Such, for example, "still life" (1921), distinguished by a subtle sense of texture. In it, hesitates the desire to seek instructing from Lebedev, to seek not a superficial completion, but a constructive pictorial organization of the canvas, not forgetting about the plastic qualities of the depicted.

Just new great work Pakhomov - Pictures "Senokos" - originated in the native village of Varlamov. There was a material to her. The artist depicted not ordinary household scene On the back, and the help of young peasants with their neighbors. Although the transition to the collective, collective farm work was then the case of the future, but the event itself, showing the burdens of youth and the passion for the work, was already akin to new trends. Etudes and sketches of kostov figures, fragments of the landscape: herbs, bushes, stubs indicate an amazing sequence and seriousness artistic designwhere bold textured searches are combined with the solution of plastic problems. The ability of Pakhomov to catch the rhythm of movements contributed to the dynamicity of the composition. To this picture, the artist walked for several years and fulfilled many preparatory works. In a number of them, he developed close or related main themes of the plots.

The figure "beat off spit" (1924) shows two young peasants at work. They were drawn by Pakhomov from nature. Then he passed this leaf with a brush, summarizing the shown already without monitoring his models. Good plastic qualities that combine with the transfer of a strong movement and the overall painting of the use of carcasses are visible in the earlier work of 1923 "Two Kosza". With deep truthfulness, and you can say, and the severity of the drawing, the artist here was interested in the alternation of the plane and volume. In the sheet skillfully used batter. The landscaped environment is given a hint. Feeling the texture of beveled and standing grass, which contributes a rhythmic diversity.

Among the considerable number of development in the color of the scene "Senokos" should be called the Watercolor "Kosar in the pink shirt". In addition, in addition to picturesque blur, it was applied to a wet colorful layer, which attached a special sharpness of the image and was introduced in another technique (in painting by oil) in the picture. Colorite large sheet "Senokos" written by watercolor. In it the scene as if seen with high Point vision. This made it possible to show all the figures going to a row of kostov and achieve a special dynamics of transmission of their movements, which contributes to the location of the figures diagonally. Evaluating this technique, the artist built and the picture, and then did not forget him in the future. Pakhomov reached the painting of the overall range and gave the impression of the morning haze, penetrated by sunlight. The same theme was solved otherwise in an oil-written picture "On the back of" depicting working kossti and aside grazing near the cart. Landscape here is another than in other sketches, options and in the picture itself. Instead of field - shore fast riverWhat is emphasized by streams and a boat with a row. Expressive flavoring landscape, built on various cold green tones, only in the foreground is introduced warmer shades. A certain decorativeness is found in combination of figures with a surroundings, intensifying the total color sound.

One of the paintings of Pakhomova on the topics of sports in the 20s - "boys on skates". The artist built a composition in the image of the longest moment of movement and therefore the most fruitful, giving an idea of \u200b\u200bwhat has passed and what will happen. The other figure is contrastingly shown, which makes a rhythmic diversity and the final composite thought. In this picture, along with interest in sport, the appeal of Pakhomov to the most important for his work is the subject - the life of children. Previously, this tendency has affected the artist's schedule. Starting from the mid-20s, deep understanding and the creation of images of children of the country of councils was an outstanding contribution of Pakhomov to art. Studying large picturesque and plastic problems, the artist solved them and in works on this new important topic. At the 1927 exhibition, the fabric "peasant girl" was shown, which, although he had echoed by his task with portraits discussed above, was also also independent interest. The artist's attention focused on the image of the head and hand of the girl written with a large plastic feeling. The type of young person is originally seized. Close to this canvase on the immediacy of the feeling is the "girl for hairstyle", exposed for the first time in 1929. From the graceful image of 1927, it was distinguished by a new, more unfolded composition, including almost the entire figure in growth, transmitted in a more complex movement. The artist showed a relaxed pose of a girl, correcting the hairstyle and losing in a small mirror lying on his knee. The sonorous combinations of a golden face and hands, a blue dress and a red bench, the scarlet of sweatshirts and oath-greenish logs of horses contribute to the emotionality of the image. Pakhomov thinly captured an incentive expression children's face, foulness poses. Bright, unusual images stopped spectators. Both works were part of foreign exhibitions of Soviet art.

Throughout its half a century creative activity, A. F. Pakhomov was closely with the life of the Soviet country, and this was saturated with his works by inspired by the conviction and strength of vitality. His artistic individuality has developed early. Acquaintance with his work shows that already in the 20s it was distinguished by the depth and foundation, enriched with the experience of studying world culture. In the formation of it is obvious the role of the art of Jotto and Pratamentansans, but no less deep was the impact of the ancient Russian painting. A. F. Pakhomov belonged to the number of masters, innovatives approaching a rich classic heritage. Its works are inherent in the modern sense in solving both pictorial and graphic tasks.

The development of the Pakhomov new themes in the canvases "1905 in the village", "Riders", "Spartak", in the cycle of paintings about children is important for the formation of Soviet art. The artist played a prominent role in creating the image of a contemporary, his series of portraits is a visual testimony. For the first time, he introduced into the art of so bright and vital images of the national citizens of the country of the Soviets. This side of his diving is extremely valuable. His works enriched and expand ideas about the history of domestic painting. Already from the 20s the largest museums Countries acquired Pakhomov's canvas. His works received international fame at large exhibitions in Europe, America, Asia.

A. F. Pakhomov inspired socialist reality. Attention it was attracted to the test of turbines, the work of weaving factories and a new in life agriculture. Themes associated with collectivization are revealed in its works, and with the introduction of equipment to the fields, and using combines, and with the work of tractors at night, and with the life of the army and fleet. We emphasize the special value of these achievements of Pakhomov, because all this was displayed as an artist in the 20th and early 1930s. His picture "Pioneers at the scenario", series about the commune "Sewer" and portraits from the "beautiful sword" belong to the number of the most deep works Our artists are about change in the village, about collectivization.

Work A. F. Pakhomova is distinguished by the monumentality of solutions. In the early Soviet wallsopi, the artist's work belongs to the most striking and interesting. In the Krasnaya oath cards, paintings and sketches of the "dance of children of all nations", pictures about the jaciest, as in general in the best creations of Pakhryov's painting, will feel the relationship with the great traditions of the ancient national heritage, which is in the treasury of world art. Deep original coloristic, shaped side of his paintings, paintings, portraits, as well as machine and book graphics. The brilliant successes of the plenary painting demonstrates the series "In the Sun" - a kind of anthem youth of the country of the Soviets. Here in the image of a naked body, the artist performed as one of the large masters who contributed to the development of this genre in soviet painting. Color searches of Pakhomov were combined with the solution of serious plastic problems.

It must be said that in the face of A. F. Pakhomova, art had one of the largest drawers of modernity. Master masterly owned various materials. Work in mascara and watercolor, pen and brush adjacent to the brilliant drawings graphite pencil. Its achievements go beyond domestic art and become in a number of outstanding creation of world graphics. Examples are not difficult to find in a series of drawings made at home in the 20s, and among the sheets made in the next decade on travel around the country, and in cycles about the pioneer camps.

The contribution of A. F. Pakhomov in graphics is huge. His machines I. booksDedicated to children relate to outstanding successes in this area. One of the founders of Soviet illustrated literature, he introduced a deep and individualized image of a child. His drawings were fascinated by readers with vitality and expressiveness. Without a teaching, alone, the artist brought thoughts to the children, awakened their feelings. BUT important topics Education I. school Life! Nick from the artists were not solved so deeply and truthfully as Pakhomov. For the first time, it is so figurative and realistic, he illustrated the verses of V. V. Mayakovsky. Feature discovery His drawings became for the works of L. N. Tolstoy for children. The considered graphic material clearly showed that the creativity of Pakhomov, an illustrator of modern and classical literature, to illegally limit only the area of \u200b\u200bthe children's book. Excellent artist drawings to the writings of Pushkin, Nekrasov, Zoshchenko testify to the great successes of Russian graphics of the 30s. His works contributed to the approval of the method of socialist realism.

Art A. F. Pakhomov is distinguished by citizenship, modernity, relevance. During the hardest tests of the Leningrad blockade, the artist did not interrupt its activities. Together with the masters of the art of the city on the Neva, he, as once in his youth in a civil war, worked on the tasks of the front. A series of lithographs Pakhomova "Leningrad in the days of blockade", one of the most significant creatures of the art of war years, reveals unparalleled valor and courage of Soviet people.

The author of hundreds of lithographs, A. F. Pakhomov must be named among those enthusiast artists who contributed to the development and dissemination of this type of printed graphics. The possibility of appealing to a wide range of spectators, the mass of the address of the circulation estampa attracted his attention.

Its works are characterized by classical clarity and laconide of fine funds. The image of a person is its main goal. The extremely important side of the artist's creativity belonging to his classical traditions is the desire for plastic expressiveness, which is clearly visible in his painting, drawings, illustrations, tops up to its most recent works. He spent it constantly and consistently.

A. F. Pakhomov - "Deeply original, large Russian artist, fully immersed in the mapping of life of his people, but at the same time the absorbent achievement of world art. Creativity A. F. Pakhomov, painter and graphics, is a significant contribution to the development of Soviet artistic culture. /V.S. Matafones /
