Description

As one of today’s most sought-after workshop instructors, Charles Reid knows the most common stumbling blocks faced by artists and the best ways to overcome them. With expert advice on everything from drawing and design to fine-tuning figure and landscape paintings, Charles Reid’s Watercolor Basics will help you identify shortcomings in your paintings, fix recurring problems, and become a better watercolorist no matter what your skill level.

Inside, you’ll find masterful insights from one of North Light’s best-selling authors-

- Advice for successful color mixing, tips to avoid overworking and other straightforward information you can take straight to your easel

- 10 step-by-step demonstrations make the lessons easy to understand and implement

- Student work with critiques that call out strengths, weaknesses and tips on how the paintings can be improved

Whether your portraits feel contrived, your landscapes lack depth, or your colors look unnatural, this book holds the secrets to stronger, looser and livelier paintings.
