Landscape Problems & Solutions (Trouble-Shooting Handbook)
Editorial Reviews Book Description Landscapes are the most popular subject areas among artists of all levels of ability. This invaluable handbook takes a practical problem-and-solution approach to drawing and painting popular landscape subjects, showing common mistakes and how to rectify them.
* Incorporating both drawing and watercolor media, the author:
* Leads readers through a series of examples and exercises that introduce them to the equipment and techniques needed for landscapes
* Examines a series of landscape-based themes in detail, showing the problems that can be encountered, and offering ingenious solutions to each
* Follows the highly attractive and accessible layout as the other two books in the series--problem-and-solution spreads, clear annotation, and step-by-step demonstrations
Each theme starts by demonstrating the basic marks and brushstrokes required for that subject, then sets out a series of problem-and-solution pages that are packed with useful tips on how to paint those subjects and avoid the common pitfalls. Each of these themes concludes with a step-by-step demonstration in a chosen medium to pull all the points covered in the theme together in practice. About the Author Trudy Friend is an experienced and accomplished artist and teacher who writes highly popular "Problems and Solutions" column for the UK's Leisure Painter magazine on which this, and her previous titles, Drawing Problems and Solutions and Watercolor Problems and Solutions, are based.
