Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Great art speaks a language all its own. This guide gives artists a new vocabulary for expressing themselves through painting. Focusing on landscapes, 18 renowned artists reveal how they articulate their artistic vision using oil, watercolor, pastel and more.

Through full-color examples and step-by-step demonstrations, each illuminating chapter teaches artists dozens of creative techniques, including how to: utilize 6 invaluable secrets to render water and reflections; practice 9 essential tips to find and compose subjects outdoors; use big shapes to draw viewers into the landscape; add drama and energy to a composition using diagonals; identify and correct color temperatures for maximum effect; paint a range of different outdoor textures; use color, value and detail to evoke character.

To give readers a friendly, up-close perspective, featured artists provide their own insightful commentary and are pictured in their studios as they work on each demonstration.
