Demonstrating the techniques needed to paint landscapes which are awash with colour and light, this book offers detailed advice on the wide range of materials available for painting in pastels. It follows with practical instruction on the various marks and techniques which can be used to convey the impression of light, and looks at weather, geography, time of day and season, all of which have an effect on light. The author demonstrates for art societies and writes for The Artist and The Artist's and Illustrator's Magazine.
