Painting Landscapes and Atmosphere by José M. Parramón
The instructional guides in this series help the beginning artist find the answers that the majority of painting books fail to provide: how to create and avoid the little details that can either destroy a painting or make it into a masterpiece. Included are techniques for painting reflections on water in the style of the great masters, for creating textures, for putting life and movement into a work, and for beginning a long and fruitful relationship between the amateur artist and the world of art. Atmospheric phenomena, as real and varied as weather itself, are often tricky elements of a painting for the beginning artist to tackle. Offering a wealth of techniques for representing such natural occurrences as sunsets and dawns, this book also provides instruction for interpreting landscapes to suggest depth and distance, for capturing the subtle variations of a climatic change, and for portraying the effects of fog, rain, frost, and heat.
