Below is a list of books I have found on Hensche's
technique.
They all have been very helpful to me and I recommend all of them.
 |
"Hensche
on Painting" by John Robichaux This book is a collection of the author's notes from Hensche's lectures during his classes at his Cape School of Art in Provincetown, MA. The notes are mostly from 1988, but the book also includes a short bio of Hensche and several illustrations of his work. The notes give a lot of insight into Hensche's thinking and methods.

"Hawthorne on Painting"
by Mrs. Charles Hawthorne This is a collection of students' notes from Charles Hawthorne's classes. Hawthorne was Hensche's teacher and the prodigy of William Merrit Chase. The notes are vaulable information that goes along with the methods of this Impressionist technique. To order click here. |

"Painting the Impressionist Landscape"
by Lois Griffel This is a workshop in a book for practicing Hensche's methods. Griffel clearly outlines the block study method Hensche taught and has adapted it to her own teaching method. The illustrations are effective in showing what to do and the plates of Griffel's paintings are beautiful and inspiring. To order click here. |

"Capturing Radiant Color in Oils" by
Susan Sarbuck |
 |
"The Art of Seeing and Painting" by Henry Hensche This is the only book Hensche wrote and it is out of print. But if you find a copy you will have a book containing the essence of all that he taught. It is in the same conversational format in which he delivered all of his lectures and covers all subjects relevant or otherwise to his teaching method and technique. |
