Take Three Colours: 3 Colours, 3 Brushes and 9 Easy Projects to Get You Painting : Book by Geoff Kersey

Even if you have never picked up a paintbrush before, Geoff Kersey shows you how to paint convincing watercolour landscapes using just 3 brushes, 3 colours, a plastic palette and a watercolour pad. Only students' range watercolour paints are used in light red, cadmium yellow pale and ultramarine blue, yet from these, Geoff shows you how to paint 9 realistic watercolour scenes. There is no off-putting colour theory or long-winded mixing information, but a practical absolute beginner's course that shows the three colours in action. You need only 3 affordable brushes: no. 10, no. 4 and no. 2 rounds in a synthetic range, to achieve all of the paintings shown. Let Geoff Kersey build your skills through 9 easy exercises, starting from the simplest of scenes, resulting in landscapes you'll be proud of. Start with a simple sky and progress through a basic scene with a reflected sunset, to landscapes that include simple buildings and even a figure. Clear advice and step-by-step photographs sh
