Editorial Reviews
Book Description
This attractively illustrated manual for art students and amateur artists shows how to master techniques that maximize the dramatic effects of color, texture, and composition in watercolor. These skills are then applied to the familiar subject of the home and its surrounding yard and garden. Heavily illustrated with example sketches, step-by-step sequences showing paintings in progress, and the author’s own superb watercolors, this very useful volume looks at several town dwellings and country cottages, and points out architectural details that make them interesting as subjects for watercolor artists.
