Synopsis

Written by two artists who have over 15 years experience of teaching in London art schools. Detailed explanations and a structured series of projects introduce the reader to a number of ways of looking at the subject, and procedures, techniques and practical tips are provided for describing each way of analysing the subject. The landscape is approached through drawings that explore aspects such as as texture, the ordering of space, observed perspective and the artist's emotional response to nature. By working through the projects, the reader will gain a broad experience of drawing, and at the same time discover ways to express confidently their own ideas, feelings and responses.
