Product Description
Classic Instruction in a Beginner-Friendly Format

*Focuses on easy techniques with the crow quill pen--one of the only books to do so! *Great value: At $19.99, it?s one of the most inexpensive pen and ink with watercolor books available

Most pen and ink with watercolor books concentrate on the technical pen or techniques that are simply out of reach for beginners. But this highly accessible guide breaks that mold, taking a popular medium and presenting it in bite-sized lessons. It?s easy to find quick success, with 15 simple exercises and 9 complete step-by-step demonstrations. Readers will find everything they need to create landscapes, flowers, people, animals and scenes.

4 out of 5 stars Well done but pretty much for beginners   January 4, 2007
  7 out of 10 found this review helpful

A nice book, well-done. A little slender on substance, though


5 out of 5 stars Exercises teach the basics   November 7, 2006
  10 out of 10 found this review helpful

Learn how to draw using a crow quill pen and India ink, and through the instruction of an artist who shows not just pen and ink techniques, but how to enhance these with watercolor. Most books on the topic provide an overview of a daunting array of artists' tools; but this uses a minimum of specialized equipment and offers up an easy program for getting started in inking and watercolor. Exercises teach the basics and provide twelve step-by-step illustrated demonstrations covering landscapes, interiors, nature and architecture alike.
