Synopsis

Painting architecture in watercolour calls for more than careful description; it also depends on conveying ambience and a convincing sense of place. In this clearly explained, highly visual masterclass, Nicholas Poullis demonstrates how classic watercolour methods can be used to create work that feels both precise and expressive.

The book addresses core considerations such as light, composition, perspective and drawing, alongside common challenges including balance, simplification and avoiding overworking. Readers can study dozens of the author’s artworks, follow six varied step-by-step projects, and build skills through tips and ideas placed throughout. It is presented for confident beginners and intermediate artists, while also offering experienced painters a focused way to refine technique.
