Description: Whether you are painting the spirit of nature -- or painting nature with a free spirit -- the keynote of this book is experimentation & keeping an open mind. Painting a scene exactly as it appears to the eye, as a realist landscape artist does, is only one of the many ways to capture nature. Masterfield demonstrates basic techniques for achieving texture, color mixtures, & shapes. Shows you new ways to work in watercolor -- by pouring inks, adding opaque lines to textured pas.
