See and paint nature as never before!
From a perfectly posed butterfly to a delicately tinted leaf to tiny eggs in a bird's nest, realistic natural details enhance a painting's appeal. Now internationally acclaimed artist and teacher, Peggy Harris, shares her secrets.
"This is primarily a book to train your eye rather than your hand...We would not think of attaching arms or legs to the head of an animal or person, or placing the eyes on the feet; yet we frequently place incorrect vein patterns on leaves, randomly attach insect antennae or legs and so on."
With tips, painting demonstrations, fascinating facts and her own beautiful artwork, Peggy teaches you to observe nature accurately and let your knowledge give life and credibility to your painting, no matter what your artistic style.
"As you carefully examine and compare subjects from the natural world, you will inevitably become more skilled in your depiction of them."
Let Painting Nature inspire your imagination while giving you the techniques you need to paint attractive and convincing nature scenes.
