Within this inspiring, practical book are full instructions for 15 small but perfectly-formed landscape paintings themed around trees and woodlands. The 30-minute paintings are all worked at postcard size ideal for a 6 x 4in (A6) watercolour pad - and simple outline drawings are provided for those who are less confident at drawing.
Highly varied, the projects range from snow scenes to bluebell woods, and show you how to use classic watercolour techniques with minimal materials to produce beautiful postcards to keep, send or show off.
