New from best-selling author and trusted watercolor teacher Matthew Palmer! Learn to paint impressive seascapes and ocean scenes in watercolor, through 33 quick-and-easy skill-building projects, with full-size tracings included.
“You’ll be guided through some simple exercises and on to complete paintings, gaining valuable insights that will develop and improve your skills.” – Artbookreview.net
Want to learn to paint but short on time? Matthew Palmer has constructed this beginner’s painting course from a series of 33 quick and easy painting projects, each designed to take 30 minutes or fewer, and structured to build your skills up gradually. Start simple with still water and rippling tides, then move on to creating crashing waves, coastal buildings, boats and sun-bleached sand.
Designed for busy hobby artists who want to snatch moments to paint here or there, each of these compact projects is explained in 10 steps or fewer and is accompanied by a full-size outline on tracing paper
Covers watercolor basics, building up from core watercolor techniques including preparing paper and paint and blending
Each of the 33 quick and easy exercises takes no more than 30 minutes and will teach you how to create a new and inspiring subject – including wild waves, lightning on the ocean, yachts, palm trees and rocky shores
• The exercises are all worked at postcard size – ideal for a 6 x 4in (A6) watercolor pad.
• At the end of the book discover 3 larger scale finished paintings that demonstrate how to integrate the techniques you’ve learned into vibrant and inspiring seascapes; these complete paintings also have an accompanying actual-size tracing.
Matthew Palmer is a renowned demonstrator of watercolor painting, and his classes are particularly popular with beginners. He has been painting seriously for over twenty years and specializes in landscapes, still life and animals. He has his own studio at his home in Derbyshire, UK and teaches hundreds of people each week, as well as running watercolour workshops and holidays. He has many personal exhibitions, participates in several art shows and appears regularly on television as well as on his own internet-based art show at www.watercolour.tv
