Watercolor in Nature
Capture the natural world with vibrant works of art
Nature illustrator Rosalie Haizlett believes that watercolor can be a beautiful, powerful tool to help us slow down and become better observers of the world around us. Watercolor is also a medium that can be frustrating for beginners. But it doesn’t have to be that way! In this fully illustrated book, Rosalie provides artists of all skill levels with the tools they need to paint a wide range of plants and animals with ease and confidence. By sharing every step of the process through clear visuals and written descriptions, you’re invited to learn at your own pace. Once you have completed the projects in this book, you’ll have the ability to paint all of your amazing nature finds far into the future!

Beautifully designed & printedSturdy, high-quality paper enables you to wipe away paint smears that may get on the pages while you paint. The lay-flat binding allows you to keep the book open to the instructions while you work. Watercolor in Nature is also lightweight and compact, so you can pack it up in your backpack and take it on a painting trip outside! The book is fully illustrated by Rosalie so that you can be inspired by her artwork as you learn. |
Featuring 20 gorgeous projectsIn the pages of this book, you’ll learn how to paint everything from botanicals like a wild blueberry branch and a fiddlehead fern to wildlife like a wood duck, blue snail, and red fox. The first 10 projects are created using the winning combination of ink outlines and watercolor, a great way for new watercolorists to get their feet wet. The final 10 projects are created using only watercolor. The projects cover a vast variety of textures, shapes, colors and patterns that you may encounter in nature. You will be ready to paint all sorts of nature’s subjects after you finish the projects in the book! |
Demystifying watercolor through clear stepsEach project is broken down into 8 steps so you can see exactly how to arrive at the finished piece. Rosalie shares all her secrets for sketching out the subject, building up layers, creating dynamic ink outlines, blending paint, and adding fine textures to make the paintings as life-like as possible. Watercolor doesn’t need to be a mystery! There are formulas and techniques that will help you achieve the results you want, and Rosalie provides that foundation in this book. |

Nelle foto il ramo di una pianta, elementare che più di così non si può, e la pigna dove viene sovrapposto un colore chiaro, alla terra d'ombra, contraddicendo l'insegnamento principe dell'acquerello per cui si parte dai colori chiari aggiungendo via via colori più scuri. Non lo consiglio neppure ai principianti assoluti perché non ci sono siegazioni base per loro. In conclusione ho comprato un libro per tre disegni decenti che avrei potuto trovare ovunque.
