ART THAT MOVES THE HEART
Walt Disney was a man
who had an amazing ability to inspire other people to remarkable
creative achievements. Toby Bluth happens to be one of those
shining gems of talent that to this day draws inspiration from
the life and work of Walt Disney. Starting with Snow White and
the Seven Dwarfs then continuing with Pinocchio, Fantasia, Dumbo
and Bambi, the first five feature length films to come out of
Walt Disney Studios, according to Bluth, are the five gems in
the crown of animation's royal history.
Just as those five films marked
Walt's grand entrance into feature length storytelling they,
quite appropriately, set the stage for the first five limited
edition giclée's in Bluth's Disney Fine Art portfolio.
Infused with all the depth, texture and richness of Toby's original
watercolors these fine prints will be enjoyed for generations,
very much in the spirit of the timeless classics that inspired
them.
Technique and approach
Creating the moment that you
think you saw... is how Toby Bluth describes his approach in
conceiving each one of his watercolor masterpieces. Believing
that how one remembers a film is often different from the actual
film itself, Toby paints what he perceives as the collective
memory of a film experience and taps into the emotional essence
of the story.
Chiaroscuro, defined as the
use of deep variations in, and subtle gradations of, light and
shade, especially to enhance the delineation of character and
for dramatic effect, is a key component in Bluth's work. The
blue shaded undercoat or chiaroscuro effect, seen in this example
of his work-in-progress, adds depth, life and warm and cool
shadows to each scene Bluth invites us into. Toby also refers
to this process as painting the light and the air. Fumado, a
word which basically means smoky, is a term Toby uses to describe
the notion that as things move away from you in distance or
time, they get hazy and out of focus...much like our memory
of events in our lives. He uses this principal as inspiration
in how he composes his paintings, to draw focus (or lack of)
to certain elements in his work. Background Inspired by the
work of legendary illustrator Gustaf Tengrenn, whom Walt Disney
recruited to work on Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Bluth
is passionate about his craft. A multifaceted artist, Toby's
creative endeavors do not end at the tip of his brush. He is
an accomplished writer, director, designer and a veteran of
the American musical stage, having performed and or directed
in nearly one hundred musicals, both on Broadway and beyond.
Most recently he served as Art Director for The Walt Disney
Studios production of The Three Musketeers, having already served
in that position for the animated feature film The Tigger Movie.
