Peter is proud to announce the release of Part 8 in the series of DVDs designed to help the home student learn the basics of landscape watercolour painting.
In Part Eight of the Watercolour for Beginners series, Peter Woolley explores the many ways of painting in Line & Wash.
Beginning with the two most common methods, Peter goes on to introduce his preferred ‘fusion’ technique, where neither the ink nor the paint are dominant; each supports, and takes hints from, the other.
This DVD comes hot on the heels of last month's release (Water & Reflections), and completes this year's video work. All 8 parts are available as a set (Volumes 1 & 2), which would make a Great Christmas Present for someone! New titles will be announced in the Spring of 2012, so bring your collection up-to-date now!
Special Features includes a gallery of work and full biography.
