Preface
Landscape
painting is a fascinating subject. India has a unique advantage of having a variety
of landforms. Each landform has different
characteristics during different times of the year and each time it is equally
beautiful.
All
types of landforms have unique characteristics and require special skills to
draw and paint. Hence, it is important to know the various techniques of
painting them. It is equally significant to understand the various colours and
their properties in order to grasp the concept of painting. This series of
books on 'landscapes' attempts to cover all these aspects in detail.
This
series is divided into 5 parts and each part deals with a particular season of
the year. This book teaches one to paint landscapes in the spring season in
various landforms. The significance of colours and different techniques of
painting various elements of nature like sky, water, trees, mountains, etc. are
also explained. This book also imparts some knowledge about the season in
various parts of our vast country.
