This book builds on the success of Terry Harrison's Sea & Sky in Watercolour, adding six new projects and plenty of new paintings.
Terry's clear, no-nonsense advice takes the mystery out of painting clouds, clear skies, sunsets, foam bursts, breaking waves, rippled
water, reflections, boats, cliffs, rocks, beaches and much more. There are plenty of tips and techniques to show how to use Terry's F
specially made brushes to paint watercolour seascapes the easy way. There are then nine beautiful step-by-step projects that show the
techniques in action.

By dealing with two perennially popular and persistently problematical subjects in one book, Terry Harrison demonstrates ways of M
handling both ground and aerial perspective. This is a relatively elementary book, but Terry has a way of explaining things that can have
even the most experienced artist saying, 'Of course! His waves have motion and substance, his reflections hint at hidden depths and his
clouds can contain real menace. There's a good variety of material here as well as landscapes, building and boats, of which Terry is a
master. All round, this is excellent value. A

You'd expect nothing less than a comprehensive guide from Terry Harrison, and that's exactly what you get here. His 'easy way' is to
work with a relatively limited palette and with a series of brushes he's developed that produce results quickly and predictably. Terry
paints atmospheric scenes and all weather and conditions. You'll get storms and calm, waves crashing onto rocks or lapping a sandy I
shore. You'll get heavy clouds and peaceful sunsets. You'll also find boats, piers and buildings as well as all the other landscape elements O
associated with maritime subjects. Above all, what you'll get is Terry's patient and easily-followed guidance. He's one of those people
who knows the question you're going to ask before you've thought of it yourself and he's there with just the right advice and just the
right illustration. The Easy Way - I reckon that's it. Someone should bottle it.
