The projects range in complexity and are based on classic watercolour subjects such as skies, water, trees, flowers, buildings and people. Essential techniques are taught, including washes, masks, resists, spattering, sponging and sgraffito. Master all the aspects of watercolour painting with this comprehensive practical manual. An introduction details all the equipment you will need and lays out the basic techniques, including the different strokes required, and how to mix the paints to create the right palette. This instructive painting course then has over 20 step-by-step projects to help you to put the basics into practice. There are projects to challenge beginners, and others for intermediate painters, grouped by subject, including landscapes, still-life and portraits.
