Drawing and painting the landscape

The landscape is one of the most popular subjects for any artist -- amateur or professional. Reflecting man's perennial fascination with his setting and the forces of nature, the landscape has been represented in every medium, not only as a background for a narrative or figurative painting, but as a subject in its own right. The wide variety of natural forms, weather conditions and topographical features provides opportunities as well as challenges -- even the same scene presents totally different aspects from season to season or at different times of the day. With many diagrams, illustrations and step-by-step examples, Drawing and Painting the Landscape explains how the landscape can be treated in all the drawing and painting media. - Jacket flap.
