Reseña del editor

This book speaks to readers who have a strong desire to become accomplished watercolorists. Beginning with an overview of materials and the basics of drawing, composition, color, and value, Mary Whyte then shares with readers her expertise in the techniques of watercolor painting. Practical instruction and illustrated step-by-step demonstrations are provided, covering the genres of still life, landscape, and figures and portraits. You will learn how to create wet-into-wet paintings, using varied brushstrokes for special effects; handle edges, create textures, combine mediums, and correct mistakes; find, arrange, and light unusual setups for still lifes; prepare to paint outdoors, work on location, and depict architectural elements; and pose a model, replicate skin tones, and capture character with your paintbrush.
