At the turn of the twentieth century, Arthur Wesley Dow literally "wrote the book" on composition--and this is it Dow's Composition exercised an enormous influence on emerging modern artists of a century ago. A thought-provoking examination of the nature of visual representation, it remains ever-relevant to all the visual arts.A well-known painter and printmaker, Dow taught for many years at Columbia University and acted as a mentor to countless young artists, including Georgia O'Keeffe. His text, presented in a workbook format, offers teachers and students a systematic approach to composition. It explores the creation of freely constructed images based on harmonic relations between lines, colors, and dark and light patterns. The author draws upon the traditions of Japanese art to discuss a theory of "flat" formal equilibrium as an essential component of pictorial creation. Practical and well-illustrated, this classic guide offers valuable insights into modern design.

Absolutely a miracle substance!
Material Type: Powder Ox, Size: 16 oz
I have a couple of kayaks made of various resin types, and all were showing severe signs of oxidation on their paint jobs. The newest is probably 20 years old, so you can imagine the oxidation. All I can say is, I was greatly surprised and pleased with the result. Other than the scratches, the oxidation was almost entirely removed! I'm a true believer in this stuff!

Worked when nothing else did, easy, with just a scrubbing pad!
Material Type: Powder Ox, Size: 16 oz
I bought a Catalina 1977 sailboat. The hull (freeboard) was extremely oxidized, dull, and had stains and discoloration from the water running off the deck for years; it was streaked. Everything I tried to clean it did little, until a dockmate told me about this. WOW! It WORKED, and it worked very easily. It reminds me of the old "comet" cleanser, that shakes out of a can -- who knows, maybe its the same thing! A little goes a long way, and with very little elbow grease, I was able to attack the discoloration. Great. I also used it to clean my lifelines, which had discolored quite a bit -- and they now look like new. I LOVE this product, but probably won't buy it again for a few more years -- it lasts that long. Can't recommend it enough!

Poli cleaners.
Material Type: Powder Ox, Size: 16 oz
Our trailer was extremely oxidized. I used the Poli wash and fiberglass cleaner, super easy. It removed the oxidation and made our trailer look new again. Next I will try the Poli sealer.
