In Harmony with Nature by Maxine Masterfield

The theme of this book is the bond between the artist and nature; when an artist responds to, understands, and is in tune with the elements, a harmony results that manifests itself in his or her art. By working in accord with nature and following its inexorable rhythms, one can achieve paintings that emulate its specific textures and forms. Through step-by-step instruction, Masterfield introduces such novel techniques as painting with sand, working with filaments and fibres, creating crystal forms, solar painting, layering and weaving, and reflection and symmetry. The final chapter considers creative ways of viewing nature. The book includes nature photographs, in-process illustrations, and finished art by Masterfield and a host of other artists.
