Synopsis

English artist Donald Maxwell begins at the beginning, using simple exercises to establish core skills before moving on to more developed landscape studies. Along the way, he covers the fundamentals of perspective, light and shade, and composition, with practical guidance on directing a picture’s focus and handling the particular demands of ink as a medium.

The approach is illustrated through studies of boatyards, bridges, churches and farms, and closes with a gallery of additional pen-and-ink landscape selections by recognised masters. Suitable for readers interested in pen, ink and wash techniques.
