Best-selling author Claudia Nice provides all the information artists need to create gorgeous country garden art. She reviews basic watercolor techniques, including glazing and texturing, along with basic pen and ink techniques for producing a variety of line textures.
Readers will find valuable step-by-step demonstrations utilizing a variety of media. They'll begin by drawing in pencil, then add watercolor and/or pen and ink. In addition to flowers, Claudia shows how to illustrate a variety of leaves, vines, moss, ferns and other country scene details, including rabbits, dogs, statues, birdbaths, wagon wheels, weathered wood arbors, fences and more.

Claudia Nice is one of this country's foremost pen & ink artists and teachers, and is well known among decorative painters and fine artists everywhere.She also teaches students from throughout the world at her private studio in Oregon.
Though there are many books on the painting of flowers, whether in still lifes or natural settings, this is the best recent book on painting the garden itself. Thus, in addition to good chapters on floral painting, the book treats the painting of soils, climbing vines, weathered wood, fountains, statuary, benches, mossy stones, ferns, and even the small animals sometimes found in the garden. Having authored five other art instruction books for this publisher, Nice is well suited to the task, and her choice of watercolor with pen and ink is ideal for the subject. Highly recommended.
