How to make a watercolor paint itself : Experimental techniques for achieving realistic effects
Engle, Nita200710UU
Books
An approach to watercolour that shows readers how to combine spontaneity and control to produce realistic paintings. Award-winning artist Nita Engle's breakthrough approach to watercolour shows readers how to combine spontaneity and control to produce glowing, realistic paintings. Her method begins with action-filled exercises that demonstrate how to play with paint, following no rules. Subsequent step-by-step projects add planning to the mix, demonstrating how to turn loose washes into light-filled watercolours with textural effects achieved by spraying, sprinkling, pouring, squirting, or stamping paint. Engle's approach, and her results, are dramatic and dynamic.
