Painting Sunlight & Shadow with Pastels
Whether readers work outdoors or in, understanding the effects of light and shadow is key to making their art lifelike and engaging. Rather than providing a one-size-fits-all recipe for painting light, this book shows them how to capture the particular ambient qualities of any scene before them, be it a gloriously clear morning, a rainy afternoon or the joyful dance of sunlight on water. Master realist Maggie Price shares techniques for painting beautiful light, rich shadows and convincing reflections. Ten step-by-step demonstrations tackle a diversity of lighting situations, encompassing various weather conditions and times of day. Work from five contributing artists explores different styles, approaches and subjects, including landscapes, water scenes and people. Concepts are demonstrated with pastel, but are applicable to any medium.
