PDF/READ Watercolour: Techniques and Tutorials for the Complete Begin

Description :
Watercolour painting is an absorbing, meditative art-from that many people
would like to enjoy but don't attempt to because they believe they can't paint or
simply don t know where to begin. An encouraging voice and a clear, easy-tofollow
approach is often all that s needed to give people the confidence to get
started and keep going. That s exactly what this book provides. Paul Clark, an
enthusiastic and accomplished painter who runs his own art school, explains
the fundamentals in a friendly and accessible way. He shows readers what
they really need in terms of tools and materials starting with a limited colour
palette that can be mixed to create the vast majority of colours required. He
then explains and illustrates the basic techniques, before presenting ten of his
paintings that put those techniques into action. Each painting is broken down
into stages, with clear instructions and photographs for readers to follow, plus
plenty of helpful tips. In addition, there are three feature spreads that focus on
particular areas of interest for beginners, including special effects, painting
trees and painting skies.
