Summary

A comprehensive, accessible course in landscape painting with acrylics from a seasoned artist and teacher. Author Charles Evans's no-nonsense techniques and engaging writing style bring acrylic painting within the grasp of anyone keen to dive into this versatile and popular medium. The book begins with excellent advice for the beginner, including easy drawing for painting, composition, easy perspective, light and shade, color, and how to use acrylics with different painting styles. There are six full step-by-step painting projects ranging from simple skies to snowy landscapes with horses, each of which is supported by additional exercises and techniques. The step-by-step projects allow aspiring artists to put into practice their new-found skills, and produce six stunning paintings of their own, in a range of styles.
