Synopsis

Designed to help you develop vibrant abstract work, this book explores how watercolour can be allowed to puddle and pool to shape a composition, before being enhanced with mixed media details. Leach shares guidance on using colour, texture and contrast, alongside practical tips and tricks intended to expand your creative repertoire.

A wide range of materials and processes are introduced, including collage, printing, metallics, salt, alcohol, crackle paste, stamps, inks and simple embroidered accents. It is presented as a follow-up to the author’s bestselling Creative Abstract Watercolor, and is aimed at beginners looking to experiment with expressive painting techniques.
