description: Water-soluble (Aquarelle) pencils and pastels, when used with inventive and imaginative techniques, can produce a wide range of textures, patterns and effects. They are a versatile media, which can be used for paintings and drawings, and for sketching and finished work. They can be combined with paint, water and inks, or used in their own right. They are a suitable medium for all levels of artists, as well as fun and exciting to use. This book shows the reader how to use this modern media and how to achieve successful results with them. It discusses the pencils themselves and the different techniques that can be used, and goes on to encourage the reader to practice and get the "feel" of the pencils, then to experiment by using water with a brush or a spray. This is followed by many colourful examples of small still-life pastiches, progressing to demonstrations of full-sized finished paintings of landscapes, flowers, gardens and portraits.
