The latest issue of the UK’s No. 1 learn-to-paint magazine comes with a free 16-page special, packed with practical advice and inspiration on how to paint trees in watercolour.
Within our features and demonstrations this month are an array of painting projects from photographs, demonstrations, practical advice and more to help you draw and paint everything from late summer gardens, landscapes, dramatic skies and boats to a close-up of stacked pebbles, transport subjects and portraits. Ian Pethers demonstrates mark making for a detailed ink drawing of a moonlit shoreline, while Nina Squire answers the question, Why pastels? Award-winning miniaturist, Christina Hopkinson demonstrates how she captures a vast landscape on paper just 6.5x8.5cm and Brian Smith introduces the techniques he uses to fill his sketchbooks. This issue’s practical advice, inspiration and exercises will keep you motivated and ready to draw and paint in the weeks ahead.
