Starting with advice on materials, color, composition, and painting from photographs, it goes on to describe basic and more advanced techniques--such as wet-on-wet, wet-on-dry, scumbling, dry brush, sgraffito, impasto, and glazing--and the wonderful effects they can produce. Easy to follow lessons explain how to paint landscapes, seascapes, skyscapes, animals, still lifes, and flowers, and each section is accompanied by a selection of inspirational paintings by the four featured artists in a rich variety of styles. In addition, more than 300 photographs show clear, detailed instructions for creating beautiful works of art.
