Coastal Scenes in Watercolour

Delivering essential advice, techniques and inspiration presented through step-by-step instruction and a variety of templates, this comprehensive guide teaches aspiring artists how to paint coastal scenes with confidence.

The book includes 10 landscapes to paint, including ships in a harbour, fishing nets on a beach, and a wetland estuary. Watercolour is especially suited for coastal scenes because its translucent washes help to capture the soft, shifting qualities of the oceans and hazy horizons

Tutorials comprised in the book include:

• Sea Poppies
• Boats and Buildings
• Sunsets
• Seabirds
• Cliffs
• Coastguard cottages

It also contains ‘focus on’ spreads that provide greater detail and more advanced techniques to try. It is designed to act not only as a guide to coastal painting but also as an introduction to the medium of watercolour.
