by Les Parkin (Illustrator), Wilfred Ball (Author)
This book explores the infinite variety of methods available to the artist including wet and dry techniques. The author illustrates how the painter may achieve a greater degree of light, transparency, movement and fluidity and deals with traditional procedures as well as experimental techniques designed to achieve freshness and spontaneity. The potential for creating mood and atmosphere is covered and subjects painted include trees, skies, sunsets, water, mountains, snow, mist, fog and landscapes. Wilfred Ball is a full-time professional landscape painter. He was commissioned by the National Westminster Bank to produce the work for their 1984 international calendar.
