Mixed-media Nature Journals

NZ$ 59.99 each
Paperback
Author:
L. K. Ludwig

Nature has been inspiring artists of all ages since the dawn of history. However, most books on nature journalling focus exclusively on drawing and watercolour painting, and are therefore irrelevant to artists who don't feel confident in their drawing or painting skills. This book offers artists and crafters a wide range of experimental techniques for creating beautiful nature journals that primarily use imagery and themes from the natural world, but go way beyond mere drawing and painting. Creative twists on leaf rubbings, plant pressings, non-traditional printmaking, using patina solutions on brass or copper mesh, colourful photo manipulations, layering techniques and clever ways of incorporating three-dimensional natural objects are just a few of the techniques that will be explored.

Often seen as dark and gloomy, oils can, in fact, be used to create colourful and light paintings that are wonderfully expressive. One significant characteristic of oil paint is its richness and depth of colour, something that is of particular interest to Nicholas Verrall. Immediately striking in all his pictures is the skilful way he handles colour to interpret the special qualities of light and mood found in a certain moment in time. In this book, he discusses his working methods and the importance of colour, at the same time placing these issues within the general context of painting in oils, with all that this has to offer."Colour and Light in Oils" includes information, demonstrations and many inspirational finished paintings to help painters understand the value of colour in interpreting ideas with feeling and impact.
