Aimed at those with some experience of painting in watercolour but helpful for beginners too, the book provides a comprehensive masterclass in the art of landscape painting. Readers will be taken on a journey, developing a rich understanding of the landscape as an inspirational subject, through the steps required to capture it in watercolour, to designing paintings and adopting strategies and structures that will deliver consistent results. The book concludes with advice and guidance on how to progress from painting as a hobby to earning a living as a full-time artist, navigating a way through the challenges of the digital era and social media.
