Synopsis

It's no mystery why artists love to paint and draw landscapes, and always have, from ancient times to the present, and from beginners to masters. Ten practical projects, offered by an award-winning artist who's also a successful instructor on four continents, appear in simple stages that let you start simply and build your skills. Choose from a range of subjects, from the majesty of mountains, forests, and oceans to the closer-to-home magic of fields, skies, and snowscapes, even your own backyard. You'll try a variety of media, including graphite and pastel pencils, charcoal, pen and ink, chalk, and sketching pencil. Develop your own style and visual vocabulary, line quality, tone, and color, then try your hand at mixing media.
