Reviews

5 of 5 Stars! – Customer review on 11/11/2011

This is a beautifully illustrative manual. The author provides good techniques especially for capturing light within landscape scenes. It also provides instructions for the use of techniques to bring water features into Landscape drawings. Brilliant book - well worth the money.
