SPECIAL PRICE REDUCTION! This book deals with watercolours, oils & acrylics, drawing, and pastels.

It includes a complete guide to materials, equipment and progressive painting and drawing techniques.

This magnificently illustrated box set explores the four most popular art mediums and techniques. How to Paint with Watercolours discusses brushwork, texturing, line and wash, and masking; How to Paint with Oils & Acrylics deals with mixing paints, knife painting, underpainting and glazing; How to Learn the Art of Drawing explains how to work in monochrome, how to draw with pencils, and the mechanics of drawing; and How to Draw with Pastels shows how to mix pastels, use charcoal, lay a textured ground, and how to create sgraffito effects.
