Details: Product description A stimulating mix of color and watercolour technique for all skill levels. Strongly influenced by the changing landscape and the border areas hidden in plain sight, Carole Robson's artwork is packed with color, atmosphere, texture and light. An experienced teacher and artist, in this book, Carole explores how to build from basic techniques to producing wonderful expressive and semi-abstract landscapes that combine watercolor with other watersoluble media and collage material. The book includes essential information on composition and her sources of inspiration, with a section on how to use and gain confidence with your tools while discovering stunning color palettes and abstraction methods. About the Author Carole Robson is from a rural area of North Staffordshire. She studied at Central St. Martin's School of Art and freelanced as a book illustrator for major London Publishers. She worked on a wide variety of commissions and her illustrations are published worldwide. Carole is a mixed media painter and art tutor, working from her studio in Laddingford, Kent, she exhibits in London and the South East of England. Her paintings are driven by strong feelings about ecology and man's impact on the environment; her desire is to elevate nature's case and celebrate meadows and wild places. While inspired by all nature she particularly enjoys weedy patches and the fragility of weathered plants, which retain a kind of nobility in their structure even in their dry, decaying state. Her observations of nature, memory and imagination form the basis of many of her landscapes. She is an experimental artist, combining media, resist techniques and a variety of mark making. In the last few years Carole has brought digital art into her practice and is frequently re-inspired by the new colour combinations or abstractions achieved.
