PAINTING BRILLIANT SKIES & WATER IN PASTEL
Secrets to Bringing Light and Life to Your Landscapes
By Liz Haywood-Sullivan
Popular artist and teacher Liz Haywood-Sullivan shares her secrets for painting landscapes in pastels with colorful, light-filled skies and sparkling, realistic water. Start-to-finish demonstrations on painting skies in all types of weather, from morning to night, and water in all its forms, from calm reflective ponds and meandering rivers to whitewater cascades and ocean waves. A simple, clear approach to potentially puzzling concepts such as aerial perspective, angles of light and identification of cloud types.

Step-by-step demonstrations and diagrams bring clarity to the nature of water--how it reflects light and how it moves. Students will learn the types of clouds and weather conditions, and how those create mood. Later chapters show how to place both the sky and water correctly in a landscape.
