Leisure Painter  |  Nov-14
Welcome to the November issue of Leisure Painter. Practical features included in this month's issue cover everything from watercolour landscape miniatures and how to paint trees in watercolour to self-portraits in oil and landscapes in pastel and pastel pencil. If you're inspired by the Old Masters, you'll enjoy Tony Paul's demonstration of the colours and techniques used by Rembrandt. Another traditional approach, botanical art, is covered by Helen Campbell while there's plenty for animal lovers with wild animals, pets and birds covered in pencil and acrylic. Enjoy the issue.
