TURNERS APPRENTICE: A WATERCOLOUR MASTERCLASS (PB)

How can a modern painter go about learning the techniques and methods of a long dead master? Drawing on years of research and practice, this book shows you how. Tony Smibert brings us a virtual 'apprenticeship', sharing a method and approach of his own that emulates Turner and yet is contemporary, original and innovative. A working manual for artists, the book also brings together elements of practice from other historic masters including Leonardo and Monet, explaining the practice and philosophy of traditional apprenticeship from the point of view of diverse models.
