Watercolour Pencil Magic: Discover the Fun and Versatility of This Exciting Medium

by Cathy Johnson (Author)

Synopsis

Watercolour pencils are portable, versatile and much more forgiving than traditional watercolours, yet many artists have only just begun to tap into this medium's creative potential. This book explores the endless possibilities of watercolour pencils, providing artists with clear intructions for taking full advanctage of them in their work. Beginning with an overview of necessary materials and basic techniques, artists will learn from simple mini demonstrations how to mix colours, create washes, layer colours and more. They will then see how these painting techniques can be employed to capture a variety of popular subjects, including landscapes, flowers, animals, water, people and skies. The last chapter of the book demonstrates how to mix watercolour pencils with other media to create new and interesting effects.
