Alwyn
invites you into his studio and shows you how to develop your watercolour
painting skills by working indoors both from your imagination, and
from sketches and photographs taken on location.
In his chatty and easy-to-follow style he explains what materials
you will need and then demonstrates how to paint landscapes and seascapes,
with special emphasis on painting realistic skies and portraying atmosphere.
He shows you how to add people to your paintings, how to paint flowers
and how to paint imaginary landscapes. Alwyn also introduces you to
several other water-based painting mediums, explaining how to use
pen and wash, and how to paint with gouache and acrylics.
Crawshaw's Watercolour Studio is packed with practical, step-by-step
advice and handy painting tips. You'll find that Alwyn's enthusiasm
for working in the studio is infectious - so have a go yourself and
discover that watercolour painting is exciting, rewarding and, above
all, fun.
