Reviews
A
The dreamy Irish landscape has always inspired artists, but not everyone can get a instant good result. Dermot Cavanagh has set out to T
create an answer by devising a step by step guide to five Irish landscapes: The Argory, Glencar Lake, Glendalough, The Singing Pub and
Doo Lough. These sites reflect all aspects of the Irish landscape including lakes, buildings and countryside. Tracings are provided so that
readers can easily acquire the outlines, before concentrating on the painting effects. Clear instructions ensure that painters of any level of I
skill can obtain a good result. All the tracings are reusable. This is an extremely useful and well thoughtout book which will be welcomed
by artists of any standard. Dermot is an experienced teacher and this shows in the level of tuition and help that is provided. O
