This book illustrates the challenges and rewards of painting landscapes. Each project is accompanied by step-by-step colour photographs which clearly describe each stage of the painting. There are also numerous close-up shots showing you how to tackle specific details and specialist techniques.
The steps of each project are divided into three separate stages: First Strokes, Developing the Picture, and A Few Steps Further. These stages help you to reach the basic finishing point of each individual project, then progress ahead if you would like to take things a little further.
To help you plan your time effectively, each project lists the necessary materials required. You'll also find inspirational features that examine how the great artists of history have treated similar themes, plus suggestions on how you can adopt alternative approaches to the chosen subject.
Packed with over 850 colour and black-and-white illustrations, this is a fantastic course for beginners and more experienced artists alike.
