About This Item
Secaucus, NJ: Chartwell Books, Inc., 1982. First U.S. Edition . Hardcover. Fine/Fine. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. PAINTING IN WATERCOLOR places the history of watercolor in perspective and explains why the subject is so popular today. This is followed by detailed coverage of materials and equipment. The core of the book is the section on Tenets and Techniques, and the four chapters on the various subject areas--Figure, Landscape, Portrait, and Still Life. Fully illustrated throughout with finished paintings, detailed diagrams, close-up examples of how the various effects are achieved and step-by-step photographs, the text covers basic theory and essential techniques--both in isolation and in the practical context of picture-making--in all various accepted methods of working. In addition to its clear, explicit text, there is a full glossary of artistic terms. With more than 450 illustrations, including over 150 in full color. Fine, in fine, mylar-protected dust jacket. 7 3/4" X 10".
