| In this practical and informative guide, noted British watercolorist Richard Bolton presents a complete course in painting with watercolors - especially techniques for capturing a particular texture or surface patina. You'll learn how to use such methods as scratching out, wax resist, cutting out or incising, dabbing, the split brush technique, spattering, sponging and more to capture the surface texture of old wood, with its splits and weathering, the colors and textures of rust, or ancient walls shored up with patches and rendering. The author covers the importance of selecting the proper papers to help achieve desired textures, how to choose paint and brushes and much more, including full, detailed chapters on painting buildings, trees, flowers, reflections, coastal scenes and other subjects. Paperback, 128 pages.ISBN:486295095. DOVER |
