Bailey Paul - Experimental Nature In Acrylics Our Landscapes - Hardcover

Binding: Hardcover
Description: New and experimental ways to capture landscape in acrylics. Landscape artist Paul Bailey's fascination with the natural world is sensationally conveyed in his colourful and semi - abstract paintings. In Experimental Nature in Acrylics he reveals his techniques for the first time making it simple for readers to produce their own work that is abstract evocative and full of vivid colour. Through easy - to - follow explanations and step - by - step demonstrations Paul describes how to manipulate the medium in surprising yet often simple ways. Readers will learn how distil craggy cliffs rolling farmland hills tidal rivers or flat open - skied wilderness in striking and unusual colour palettes. There are tips on how to paint organic shapes and using abstract elements in the natural landscape as the basis for a painting and how to create a compositional sense of rhythm. Paul's beautiful and contemporary work appears throughout the book and acts as a masterclass in scraping pulling weathering and splattering the paint. As well as showing how to build layer upon layer the process of construction and how to tease a sense of movement from a static image. This essential guide is a must for anyone wishing to augment their understanding of the acrylic medium and appreciation of composition and colour and to liberate their own beautiful paintings.
