Readers who want to learn to paint trees and woodlands but can not rely on their drawing skills have everything they need in this book. The outlines of five paintings (plus one bonus picture) are provided to pull out from the centre of the book. Clear instructions and step-by-step photographs show how to transfer the outlines on to watercolour paper and then how to capture the beauty of trees in striking watercolour paintings. Geoff Kersey shows how to paint a bluebell wood, a snow scene, an Autumn woodland, a pair of ancient oaks and a willow leaning over a boat.


The Ready to Paint series provides six tracings for readers to pull out and transfer on to watercolour paper. There is one for each of the five step-by-step demonstrations, plus a bonus tracing of the inspirational painting in the Introduction section, and full instructions on how to transfer the images. People who want to learn to paint without relying on their drawing skills have everything they need in this book. Geoff Kersey has created five beautiful paintings of typical Mediterranean scenes, from a palm-fringed beach to a Tuscan farm, domed Greek churches on a hillside overlooking the deep, blue sea, and a bicycle on a sleepy, sunlit street beneath trailing bougainvillea. The tracings and clear step-by-step photographs explain the painting process in great depth and make it easy for readers to reproduce all of the projects.
