Bluebell woods, flower-filled Alpine meadows, leaf carpeted country lanes, snow-mantled mountains... these and many more atmospheric landscapes are presented in this richly illustrated watercolour painting book, in which four well-known artists interpret each of the seasons in their own distinctive and contrasting styles. All the artists offer the reader clear and helpful text, preliminary working sketches, step-by-step demonstrations, and painting of nature in all her different aspects, from rain in the hills to morning mist upon the river. They explain the feelings each season evokes for them, their choice of colours, and their techniques, from wet-in-wet and wax resist to the use of salt and masking fluid. The glorious colour paintings will inspire any enthusiastic watercolourist to capture the moods of the season.
