You Can Paint Landscapes in Watercolour : A Step-By-Step Guide for Absolute Beginners

A new title in the Collins "You Can Paint" series of painting books for absolute beginners. Written by well-known artist-teachers, these start with real basics and assume no knowledge or experience of painting whatsoever. Full of easy-to-follow exercises and demonstrations, the book aims to give even the most hesitant of beginners the enthusiasm and confidence to start painting landscapes. All the instruction is broken down into easy step-by-step exercises to help you to practise and build up your knowledge and expertise of painting gradually. Alwyn Crawshaw takes the reader by the hand and shows, with simple staged exercises, exactly how to paint all the separate elements of a landscape one by one. For example, you learn how to paint trees, clouds, rocks, paths, mountains, lakes and rivers in watercolour and by the end of the book you should be able to produce a landscape in watercolour that you can be proud of.
