If you're interested in learning how to paint with watercolor, here’s all you need to know — what supplies to buy, composing a painting, mastering techniques such as wet-into-wet, and dry brush work.

If, however, you're an experienced watercolorist and particularly interested in creating detailed landscapes, you can also benefit from Geoff Kersey's expert instruction.

In addition to presenting invaluable tips on mixing colors, the importance of shadows, and the interpretation of photographs, Geoff's Top Tips provides insightful hints on how to paint elements familiar to landscapes — buildings, boats, hills and mountains, snow scenes, trees, and water. Tips are clearly presented and demonstrated with more than 140 instructive illustrations and step-by-step photographs. The spiral-bound format allows the book to lay flat for easy access while painting.

Geoff Kersey is a professional landscape artist, teacher, and demonstrator who lives and works in the Peak District of Derbyshire, England. He is the author of many books and articles, and has created a number of instructional DVDs. He works in both watercolor and oil in a traditional style.
