The What to Paint series is perfect for readers with some painting skills and experience, who are looking for inspiring painting subjects. Each book has 24 beautiful full-page size paintings, a colour palette and informative captions pulling out details, tips and techniques used in various parts of each painting. At the back of the book there is a free outline for each painting for readers to transfer or scan on to paper. There are also instructions on transferring the images, and on selecting parts of the outlines to create new compositions.

Artist Paul Apps will guide you through a selection of acrylic waterscapes including tranquil lakes, waterfalls, white water rivers and clear mountain streams examining how they appear with the changing moods of the landscape.

Every painting is accompanied by outline transfers, which are ideal for beginners who want to get started painting without requiring the necessary drawing skills.
