The Outdoor Living Room: Stylish Ideas for Porches, Patios, and Pools by Martha Baker, ISBN 0609606468
In the summer months and year-round in warmer climates, Americans love spending time outdoors. More and more, people are treating the outdoor spaces on their properties as true extensions of their homes, turning porches, pools, patios, decks, and gardens into outdoor living spaces that serve the same functions as indoor rooms. In The Outdoor Living Room: Stylish Ideas for Porches, Patios, and Pools, acclaimed author Martha Baker offers more than forty-five striking examples of this enlightened approach to outdoor decorating.
The Outdoor Living Room is divided into six chapters, each representing a specific type of outdoor style: Classic, Rustic, Romantic, Modern, Whimsical, and In Town. Six or seven different locations are featured in every chapter, each contributing a different idea or novel aspect of the same style. A multipaged "Components" section appears at the end of each chapter focusing on important elements of outdoor decorating, such as paving and lighting, followed by a heavily illustrated "Ideas" spread with tips on achieving a particular look. None of the magnificent spaces in this book has ever been published before; they range from a Southeast Asian-inspired tropical garden in Florida to a Japanese tea garden atop a New York City roof, from a grand wraparound porch on a classic home facing Lake Michigan to a thoroughly modern all-white patio near Miami. The Outdoor Living Room also includes an extensive resource section, illustrating and describing garden furniture, architectural and landscape elements, and decorative items. Packed with more than 350 full-color photographs, The Outdoor Living Room is at once a practical sourcebook and an inspirational delight.
Waterside Living: Inspirational Homes by Lakes, Rivers, and the Ocean by Leslie Geddes-Brown, ISBN 1841722138
From a Paris houseboat to a Caribbean villa, from a Maine log cabin to a Sydney penthouse, the homes celebrated here reflect their settings. Colors, furniture, and artifacts bring the qualities of water indoors -- from a still-life of pebbles and driftwood to a palette of soft blues and greens. Text by Leslie Geddes-Brown and images by Jan Baldwin capture the allure of life by water.

Drawing and Painting by John Matthews, ISBN 076194785X

The traditional approach describes children's development in terms of supposed deficits in which children progress from primitive' earlier stages to superior' ones, until they arrive at an endpoint of visual realism'.
The author explains different models of development in visual expression. Instead of measuring children's efforts against an adult paradigm, the new models identify the modes of representation...
