Watercolour

by Alwyn Crawshaw

Published 4 September 2000
Full of easy-to-follow exercises and demonstrations, this guide is part of a series that aims to give even the most hesitant of beginners the enthusiasm and confidence to start painting in watercolour. All the instruction is broken down into really easy step-by-step exercises to help you to practise and build up your knowledge and expertise of painting gradually. For example, you learn how to paint a tree in three easy stages, then a cloudy sky and finally how to paint a simple foreground, so that in the end you can paint a complete landscape. With simple exercises, Alwyn Crawshaw takes the reader by the hand and explains exactly how to paint all the separate features of a picture, one-by-one.
