Starting with 16 mini-demos, artists are encouraged to: Jump right in and follow step-by-step instructions for mastering techniques such as masking, splattering, underpainting, washes and more; Learn tips and tricks for rendering many elements of a landscape including trees, flowers, roads and reflections; The second section of the book features four complete painting demonstrations that challenge artists to exercise their new painting techniques through a variety of landscape subjects. Two demonstrations show artists how to use acrylics as an effective base for other mediums.
