About this title

Synopsis

Painting in watercolor is one of the most popular mediums for aspiring artists, yet there are many pitfalls that can snare the beginner. The Complete Watercolor Course gives beginners the key techniques of the art form, from wet-into-wet washes to the elegance of dry-brush techniques. Comprehensive and easy to follow, this guide also illustrates how to portray a range of popular subjects, from still lifes to landscapes, and shows how to create a more complex painting using glazes and additives on a range of papers. With clear and inspirational examples, John Raynes provides the fundamentals of painting in watercolor as well as more advanced professional techniques.
