Always wanted to paint but don't know where to start?
How many times have I heard these words or similar? It is great fun painting in watercolours but I know it is a bit of a minefield knowing what to get in the way of materials, how to set yourself up, setting aside some space to do it, setting aside some time even.A sixteen page booklet provides some answers:
I can provide some of the answers to these questions in a sixteen page booklet I have produced.I explain the materials that I would advise you to start with and although I will not list them here, suffice to say, if you want a good painting, get good materials. Good paper, good brushes, artist quality pigments but I explain it all in more detail in the booklet. I also explain the technique of watercolour painting, about transparency, washes and glazes, and a few watercolour "KEYS".
Principles, techniques, hints and wrinkles:
Principles of design are described in an understandable form. Elements such as balance, gradation, contrast, and harmony for example. How can you use a camera to good effect to assist your painting.There are many hints and short cuts that I have had to find out over 30 years of painting through enquiry and making mistakes that you can avoid. There are sections on painting skies, making believable figures, and encouraging you to tell a story in your paintings. I have included some rules that save you from making the mistakes that many before you have fallen into, including me!
A quick start guide for $15:
It is really a quick start guide rather than a heavy tome that you have to dredge through before you can get information that is useful to you. And it is only $15!So why not make a start, get the booklet and take imperfect action. That means start now! Ready or not!
Do it now!
