Lessons in Realistic Watercolor
Hardback
A Contemporary Approach to Painting People and Places in the Classical Tradition
Inspiring, concise, and practical, Mario Andres Robinson gives watercolorists of every skill level - from beginner to advanced to professional - encouraging advice and the must-have materials and techniques they need. He shows how to create beautiful, timeless, classical watercolor paintings through the use of the simple, yet sophisticated, contemporary techniques every watercolorist needs to know.
Robinson's approach to the medium of watercolor is primarily traditional but his methods are unconventional. Robinson simplifies the process and teaches artists to layer colors from light to dark and to focus on the highlighted areas first. The results produce more sophisticated, subtle paintings. His approach embraces watercolor's unpredictability as part of the process, the end result being a painting with intensity, spontaneity, and beauty.Buy now!
