The Ultimate Guide to Loose, Expressive Watercolour Painting

Tom Shepherd

Description

This fresh, colourful painting course is ideal for all aspiring watercolour artists: gain confidence with your brush, experiment through guided exercises and discover your own style. The author’s simple yet inspiring approach can take any painter’s work to the next level, and can be applied to any subject.

Start with the basics: shape, tone, colour and edges. These concepts, and how to use, play with and explore them, are explained in clear, practical language.
Learn through doing with step-by-step exercises, 6 paint-along projects and a number of jumping-off points for your own ideas. All the necessary details of brushwork, paint mixing and application are included.
Develop your own style: discover exercises to refine and adapt your style, broaden your artistic horizons and troubleshoot any common issues.
Learn to paint anything: apply the author's loose, expressive style to animals, people, street scenes, landscapes and still life.
Push the boundaries: the book features the work of four other inspiring artists, who work in a range of mediums (Hashim Akib, Jenny Aitken, Peter Keegan and Paul Talbot-Greaves) and examines how they work, and what makes their work unique; which allows the book to introduce exciting ways of working with watercolour.
