How to Paint with Watercolours discusses brushwork, texturing, line and wash, and masking; How to Paint with Oils & Acrylics deals with mixing paints, knife painting, underpainting and glazing; How to Learn the Art of Drawing explains how to work in monochrome, how to draw with pencils, and the mechanics of drawing; and How to Draw with Pastels shows how to mix pastels, use charcoal, lay a textured ground, and how to create sgraffito effects. Together, the four volumes provide an invaluable practical reference for any amateur artist keen to improve their skills.
