DESCRIPTION:
Artists can't always wait for perfect weather and lighting conditions to paint a dramatic sky, or drive to a distant coast to paint a stunning seascape. Streams, rivers, waterfalls, waves and breathtaking cloud formations are just some of the themes that will be sure to spark your creativity. That's why reference photos are so essential - they save artists hours of time, frustration and unnecessary work The Artist's Photo Reference: Water and Skies makes finding those much-needed images easy, by placing hundreds of magnificent, high-quality photos at the artist's fingertips. Also included are 6 step-by-step demonstrations by a variety of artists, painted from some of the actual photos included in the book A special introductory section instructs readers on how to take their own inspiring photos.
Expensive, and worth it. I love the Artist's Photo Reference series. Water and Skies by Bart Rulon was the last one that I bought, because it's out of print and the price of used copies has been soaring. I kept putting it off in favor of less expensive used copies of other books in the series, even though Water and Skies covers a subject I love to paint. Fina. Just Wonderful I just absolutely love this book. I bought this with the Landscape part of the series, with the hope to get more water. This book has it. It has a wonderful selection of snow scenes and even frost!!! It then has several different types of beach and ocean scenes. The one thing that I was really looking for that this book didn't have, w. Artist's Photo Reference: Water & Skies What a fantastic book! The photos and the art are all Breathtaking. Its a must for any landscape artist's book shelf. I've used it time and time again.
