By Terrence Tse

Item No. #Z0686

With hundreds of colorful action photos, this book shows how to use ordinary sponges and quick-drying acrylic paints to create scenic landscapes and colorful flowers in a fraction of the time needed when using brushes. Readers will see how to load different parts of the sponge with paint to achieve different techniques, from broad watercolor-esque washes to fine lines and details. Mini-demos arranged in quick-reference style show in 3 to 5 easy steps how to paint the elements common to every landscape or floral design, and 20 start-to-finish painting demonstrations on canvas show how to paint landscapes in any season, all times of day, and in all kinds of light--all with a simple household sponge. A handy timer icon indicates how long each painting takes to complete, providing visual proof that sponge painting is indeed quick and easy.
