BOOK OF THE WEEK
The Practise of Watercolour Painting
by Leslie Worth
First published in 1977, this artist has fallen out of fashion. However, Rob considers him to be a master of watercolour , giving some really useful tips in this book.
Notably the book has mainly black & white images of Worth’s paintings, being printed before the digital age when colour plates were more expensive.
This is an excellent reminder that our paintings should work in black and white. The mages in the book are fascinating when viewed with this In mind.
