Learn to paint pocket-sized woodland watercolour scenes in 15 half-hour lessons with master artist Geoff Kersey.

'I was impressed how much you could get done in half an hour and have a lovely picture at the end.' www.myshelf.com

Within this inspiring, practical book are full instructions for 15 small but perfectly-formed landscape paintings themed around trees and woodlands. The 30-minute paintings are all worked at postcard size - ideal for a 6 x 4in watercolor pad - and outline drawings are provided for those who are less confident at drawing. Highly varied, the projects range from snow scenes to bluebell woods, and show you how to use classic watercolor techniques with minimal materials to produce beautiful postcards to keep, send or show off.

The beginner-friendly projects are packed with hints and tips and structured step by step, making it easy to follow the instructions and achieve your own fantastic results! Each of the 15 projects takes 30 minutes or fewer so are easy to paint in an evening or in a spare afternoon, and each will teach you a new skill or technique. No drawing is necessary - full-sized line drawings for each postcard artwork are provided at the back of the book.
