Painting Watercolors on Location with Tom Hill
Some art instruction books have the ability to take your breath away when opened at random. This book does that. Hill, the best-selling author of The Watercolorist's Complete Guide to Color (North Light, 1992), makes an extremely strong case for leaving house or studio and working on location. In 11 detailed demonstrations, he takes us from heavily annotated photos of his locations through sketches and step-by-step layers on the way to a brilliant painting. Special sections on such fundamentals as figure painting help make this one of the finest such books in this genre.Copyright 1996 Reed Business Information, Inc.
