Botanical painting with coloured pencils

• This beautifully illustrated book is the first practical step-by-step guide to using coloured pencils in botanical painting and is written by Ann Swan, one of the leading exponents of the genre.
• Water-soluble and oil-based coloured pencils are becoming increasingly popular for botanical painting, as they are easier to use than traditional watercolour and are more forgiving, but produce the same stunning effects.
• In this book, Ann Swan offers useful advice on all aspects of working with coloured pencils, including the techniques you will need to master: underpainting, layering and burnishing. She also demonstrates how to mix and build up colour, and how to add those finishing touches that will successfully complete your painting.
• Several full step-by-step demonstrations are included to show how these techniques are put into practice.
• Language: English.
• No. of pages: 128.
