Book Synopsis



The complete beginner's guide to painting en plein air in watercolor, with 8 seasonal step-by-step projects, hands-on exercises and practical advice from expert watercolor teacher, Grahame Booth.

'So what is all this fuss about plein air painting? It is the difference between listening to a CD and being at a concert, watching a travel programme and actually visiting. With plein air you don't just see your subject. You feel it and you are literally part of it.' Grahame Booth

In this guide to painting en plein air with watercolors, expert teacher Grahame Booth provides a complete introduction to painting outdoors, from preparing your kit and planning your painting session to getting the most out of your environment, light and subject.

Structured seasonally with numerous exercises and 8 complete step-by-step projects, all painted en plein air, and infused with Grahame's friendly, encouraging teaching style, this is the ideal introduction to painting outdoors with watercolors. Discover:

  • A guide to the essential kit you need
  • Practical considerations for outdoor painting (the weather, the changing light and interested onlookers to name a few)
  • The importance of selecting and simplifying the boundaries of your painting when you have a 360-degree view to choose from
  • How to successfully capture the atmosphere of a place
  • 8 seasonal projects, with invaluable advice on painting successfully in different seasonal conditions.
