Watercolour Solutions

by Albany Wiseman (Author)

Synopsis

What is the best brush for laying a flat wash? What is wet-into-wet technique and how is it achieved? How can I paint moving water? What is the best colour mix for natural flesh tones? Watercolour Solutions gives you the answers to these and dozens more similar questions, all relevant to the aspiring watercolour artist and all profusely illustrated with examples and step by step images where appropriate. Many questions are open-ended, such as, what is the best paper to use for a watercolour? Increasing the methods and techniques shown well beyond the original 101 questions. All supplemented by clear and precise DO and DON'T boxes, giving the reader simple advice on how to maintain professional standards. Additionally, specially commissioned watercolour paintings are shown and analysed to demonstrate how previously described techniques and methods can work in harmony together to achieving successful picture making.
