Leisure Painter & The Artist | June 2024
We kick off this issue with a detailed demonstration by Colin Steed, who explains how to analyse and simplify a complicated landscape before painting it in watercolour. Nina Squire then takes you through the process of painting a bluebell wood using soft-pastel techniques, and wildlife artist, Julie Askew prepares to paint a hummingbird in acrylics. From capturing all the atmosphere of a sunny Tuscan village, rendering a pensive barn owl and creating the effects of a waterfall on black paper, to painting spring trees and drawing cherry blossom, the June issue is packed with fresh colour and exciting seasonal projects. If you’re ready for a change of pace, Jo Allsopp offers top tips for loosening up and developing a personal style, Linda Birch introduces techniques for painting semi-abstracts, and Brian Smith offers a host of practical advice and tips for sketching vehicles in ‘The essential sketchbook’.
