Rapid painting is a modality that confronts the artist with the exterior model, in the open air, in front of a natural, rural or even urban landscape. It is characterised by a light and hasty execution, which requires the work to be completed in a short space of time, often fixed in advance. The professionals of this type of painting work in a very specific way based on experience and a very careful technique.

The purpose of this book is to raise awareness of this genre, which has become so professionalised in recent years due to the proliferation of speed painting competitions. It offers a study programme that explains in detail all the necessary steps to create a completely personal work, accompanying the artist from his first stains on the canvas to the application of resources to speed up and optimise the brushstrokes.
