A new title in the Collins You Can Paint series of painting books for absolute beginners. Written by professional artist-teachers, these books start with real basics and assume no knowledge or experience of painting whatsoever.
Full of easy-to-follow exercises and demonstrations, the Collins You Can Paint series starts will give even the most hesitant of beginners the enthusiasm and confidence to start sketching in a variety of media.
All the instruction is broken down into really easy step-by-step exercises to help you to practise and build up your knowledge and expertise of sketching in different media. For example, you learn how to sketch a tree in three stages, then a cloudy sky and finally how to sketch a simple foreground, so that in the end you can sketch a complete landscape.
In this book Jackie Simmonds takes the reader by the hand with simple exercises and explains exactly how to sketch a range of different subjects, so that by the end of the book you feel that you can really produce a sketch to be proud of in a variety of different media.
Sketching media covered:
graphite pencil and charcoal
conte and pastel pencils
watercolour soluble pencils and crayons
pen and ink
markers and felt-tips
coloured pencils
