Toulouse-Lautrec painted quickly; using its neutral tone and conveying action and atmosphere in a few economical strokes. In later years graphic works took precedence and his paintings were often studies for lithographs. In Toulouse-Lautrecrsquo;s drawings of dancers and horses; his dancers appear like from a few twists and whirls. He does not draw the dancer; but her movement. He is best known as a storyteller of the nightlife of Paris. Toulouse-Lautrec did not only picture the world of the dancers and prostitutes from outside view: he just lived in that world. He frequently charged a room in a brothel; where he made drawings of the prostitutes and their clientele. The men in his drawings and posters are often caricatures but; by contrast; the women are drawn with much warmth and empathy; with only a few pencil strokes Toulouse-Lautrec renders their mood and a character.

MatsonIf you are an architect; designer; or other building professional looking for a guide to feng shui; something that will help you incorporate the principles of feng shui into your daily work; this is NOT the book for you!This book is little more than a sophistic exercise devoted to convincing building professionals that the mysteries of feng shui are so deep; a "professional" must be hired; its purpose is NOT to guide them through the principles so that they can use them on a daily basis.I was deeply disappointed that I had purchased nothing more than 200+ pages of sophistic argument devoted to convincing me that an understanding of feng shui was beyond the reach of those of us who had not devoted our lives to monastic studies of its fathomless mysteries.
