Drawing Landscapes by Kearey Ian
In Drawing Landscape, Melvyn Petterson takes you step-by-step from selecting a medium that is appropriate for your subject and the effect you want to create to sketching on location. In the process he looks at a wide range of landscapes - hills and mountains, woodlands, wide open plains and moorland, water scenes - and the aspects that are particular to each one. Simple practice exercises - for example, smudging graphite powder with your thumb to create the impression of a swirling, stormy sky or using pen and ink for a scene in which you want to capture fine detail - are included throughout to help you master specific aspects of drawing landscapes. Each chapter ends with a detailed step-by-step project that brings together a number of techniques and subjects in one drawing.
