Reviews
The What to Paint series is the big brother of Ready to Paint. The larger outlines give you more of an image to develop and the A
instructions are less detailed, appealing to those who have picked up the basic skills but still need a degree of hand-holding when it
comes to composition, perspective and drawing. Because the images are printed on normal book paper and need to be assembled, it's
worth investing in some Tracedown paper to make the transfer process easy. Each book contains 24 paintings and, as well as the T
outlines, you also get the finished result as the author painted it, some basic instructions, palette information and break outs of some of
the important details. The idea is not to copy (thought you can do that if you want), but to create your own interpretation from a I
starting point a little way on from the blank page. Charles Evans provides a well-chosen range of subjects that includes all conditions,
from a narrowboat in the calm of a canal to tall ships in full sail in heavy seas, as well as rural and harbourside settings and locations O
around the world. If you need to practise painting boats, you'll find them riding both high and low in the water as well as out of it.
Charles is an accomplished demonstrator and the examples he's chosen will help you develop a wide variety of skills.
