The Artist  |  Summer 2013
Summer is a time to renew our relationship with the great outdoors. So we have several features this month focusing on the practicalities and issues of painting en plein air, including: how to use a pochade for great results; how to paint the effects of light and shade in watercolour; how to tackle the myriad greens in the summer landscape, whilst Martin Taylor opens his sketchbooks to show us how he records his impressions in situ. Wildlife artist John Threlfall describes his approach to capturing wild animals in their natural habitat, and up and coming young artist Katie Hampson also shares her methods for capturing animals in mixed media. Royal Academician Fred Cuming provides insights into the inspiration behind his iconic landscapes in oils, and there's much more to inspire, including features on colour and colour mixing from Martin Kinnear and Soraya French. Plus, don't miss our guide to some of the best sculpture gardens to visit in the UK over the coming months! Loads to enjoy this summer!
