Learn the secrets of creating perfect watercolour washes!
Washes are the basis of achieving bright, fresh results in watercolour and in this book and DVD set popular artist Fiona Peart will show you just how to create these with ease.
In the book Fiona covers everything you need to get you started, including: materials, colour and paint, wet-on-dry and wet-on-wet techniques, using sketchbooks and photographs.
After you've got to grips with the basics, Fiona will guide you through four beautiful and varied step-by-step projects, all using colourful washes as a basis. Learn to paint a gorgeous White Amaryllis, a group of playful figures on a beach, a lady in red stockings walking through a bustling street scene, and a gondolier on Venetian waters.
In the DVD, Fiona will act as your personal tutor through three of the books' projects: Beach Figures, Red Stockings and The Gondolier. Her clear and easy-to-follow instruction will take you from the very first wash through to the final delicate detail.
