This instructive volume guides students toward understanding and reproducing the play of light on water. It uses step-by-step illustrations of works in progress, and also shows dramatic use of water effects by a variety of famous artists, including Winslow Homer, J.M.W. Turner, and many others. Titles in Barroni?1/2s Painteri?1/2s Corner art instruction series speak to serious amateur artists, as well as to students enrolled in art classes. Instruction is presented on a level that will suit the needs of intermediate-level students, but many ambitious beginners have also profited from these books. Each title explains the fundamentals of painting and drawing in a given genre or style, and presents sample projects that can guide students toward professional-looking results.
