Painting Acrylic Landscapes The Easy Way:
In this well-structured introduction to the flexible and forgiving medium of acrylics, Terry Harrison will show you how to paint a wide variety of subjects, focusing particularly on the extensive range of brushes he has developed.
The book begins with a thorough guide to choosing your equipment, including paints, mediums, additives and surfaces as well as the little things like pencils and masking tape. This section also looks at colour choices and mixing, on which Terry is particularly sound.
In the second section, Terry explains in detail how to use his own range of brushes. If you don't want to stock up on all of these, you'll probably find you have equivalents, but some are quite unique and the Wizard, with its two hair lengths, makes short work of grasses, reflections and foliage while the Fan Gogh is handy for clouds and the Half Rigger makes detail work much easier than its full length cousin.
Terry now demonstrates a variety of techniques for painting trees, reflections, snow and more. He also looks at ways to create the effect of distance, introduce life in the form of birds, animals and figures and to handle texture mediums and glazing.
The book concludes with a series of six step-by-step demonstrations covering winter and summer landscapes and a coastal scene as well as flowers, buildings and even a Venetian setting.

What to Paint Landscapes in Watercolour Book with Terry Harrison:
You've got a shelf of instructional books, a jar full of brushes of every shape and size, all the colours under the sun and enough paper to last you a lifetime, but what are you going to paint? This, says Terry in his introduction, is the artist's equivalent of writer's block.
This innovative new book is Terry's attempt to break that log jam. The approach is not unlike the hugely successful Ready to Paint series, but includes more ideas and less-detailed instructions. The idea is that you already know how to paint, it's the what that you need. And so there are no fewer than 24 paintings, each with its own outline that you can trace down to give you the basic structure. Each comes with notes on brushwork and other techniques as well as a comprehensive palette. There are even suggestions for combining different elements from several paintings to create a whole new composition.
This isn't a substitute for going out and finding your own subjects, nor would you want it to be, but it is a splendid way of getting those creative juices to flow.

Trees are a major feature of any landscape, whether a main subject or in the background, and they are the one element you absolutely have to get right.
Many books have been written on painting trees, but they mostly concentrate on individual species and on the details of structure and foliage. Terry Harrison's approach is refreshingly different and refreshingly simple: his trees are there because the painting would look naked without them.
Terry begins by showing you how to create suitable shapes quickly and easily and he also explains the range of brushes he has developed to help you with this.
As the book progresses, you'll move into more detail, such as portraying trees in the different seasons, working up to individual species, which Terry always shows in context - the tree itself is hardly ever the main subject in this book. Settings include woodlands, landscapes, mountains and rivers and you'll see how trees grow differently in each and how to capture just the right shapes and colours every time.
Trees are a tricky subject and can trip up even the most experienced painter, but Terry, in his customary way, really does take the mystery out of them.
