The book also includes specially devised step-by-step projects that demonstrate how to put individual techniques, such as wet washes and graded washes, into practice to create a multitude of landscapes, seascapes and townscapes. Each project is illustrated from start to finish with step-by-step instructions on how to paint various scenes, seasons and environments.
