EXCELLENT CONDITION Tony Couch takes all those difficult watercolor concepts and techniques and makes them visual - he uncomplicates the painting process at every step. You'll learn how to compose a painting by thinking in terms of shapes and symbols. How to think of color as ten basic hues. And how to achieve special effects with such techniques as splattering, stamping, lifting, and scraping. Includes special chapters devoted to painting the most common - yet often troublesome - landscape features, including trees, skies, water, waves, rocks, and grasses. In three step-by-step demonstrations, Couch thinks out loud for you as he paints, telling you how he proceeded from preliminary sketch to finish painting. He concludes with a gallery of his paintings, accompanied by his comments on what he likes and does not like in each. ; 8-3/4 X 11-1/4";
