description: Artists have always been drawn to the sea as it offers unparalleled opportunity. One can spend a lifetime not only enjoying the subject, but also trying to understand how to paint it. The colors that we perceive are derived from the lighting, shadows and whatever lies beneath the surface. Compounding the situation is the ever changing, ever moving nature of water. If we follow a few basic rules, which will apply in general to the nature of water, we will avoid mistakes and learn by observation. In this fully illustrated pocket size book we cover all types of water, still, rivers, coastal, rushing, breaking waves, reflections, morning, sunsets. From the sea to a river or a puddle, mix the colors you need to depict water in all its moods, quickly and accurately. In order to obtain the most from this and other titles in the 'Color Notes' series, it is strongly recommended that it should be used in conjunction with the Color Mixing Swatch book, an instant guide to 2,460 mixed hues from only 12 colors
