$29.99
Painting Nature draws inspiration from the world just outside your window, inviting you to explore color, observation, and seasonal shifts through paint. With 20 thoughtfully designed projects, this book helps you discover your own seasonal style while learning how to paint what you see.
Each project walks you through the full process, from the first sketch to building layers of color and adding final, expressive touches. You’ll pick up helpful tips and techniques for using color, working with a brush, and translating natural subjects to the page. Themes span flora, fauna, and cozy window scenes that reflect the rhythm of the seasons. Artist Gemma’s writing style is approachable for beginners while still offering plenty of depth for intermediate painters looking to refine their skills.
“I believe that every single one of us has a well of creativity inside - it's part of our innate humanity. Creativity means 'to bring forth into being; a painting might be brought forth on a blank piece of paper, a meal can be brought into being using ingredients and heat, and a flower bed from an empty patch of soil, seeds, water and light. The act of creativity is alchemical, and even the simplest things can transform when brought together with care and attention.” —Gemma Koomen, Introduction.
Softcover; 175 pages; 8” x 10”
