Enjoy a vicarious walk with the author along the Camino Frances. 500miles across Northern Spain to Santiago de Compostela from St. Jean Pied de Port nestled in the foothills of the French Pyrenees. The book is a record of his journey, essentially in sketches; all made insitu as he walked, 147 of them, with anecdotes from along the Way, it's aches and pains, blisters, laughter and pathos. He met wonderful people, passed through historic villages, admired ancient churches, enjoyed some splendid Cities, marvelled at magnificent Cathedrals, and revelled in all too brief friendships as he passed along the moving community that is the Way. This book will be enjoyed by armchair travellers, those who plan to walk the Camino, those who have walked the Camino, those who dream of, but know they may not, or never will, and those who love Spain.

The second in this series following the success of Little Ways to Learn Watercolour, this unique book works as a course in watercolour painting, built up subject by subject, over 50 paintings.  Starting off painting subjects that are important to you, you then move on to exploring your immediate environment. By the end of the book, your pictures will start to tell your own story and give you the confidence to continue painting and discovering watercolour’s myriad possibilities. Techniques are introduced throughout the painting projects, from using a simple colour wash to learning about ink techniques or letting go with loose, free watercolours. At the same time, concepts such as properties of light (vital for watercolourists) are explained to give a solid foundation on which to work.  So if you are a fresh to the world of watercolour, and daunted by a big blank piece of watercolour paper, this is the book for you.

Skies are an important part of landscape paintings, setting the tone of the scene as a whole and often representing the dominant feature of the composition. In this revised and updated edition of Painting Skies which includes material from Geoff's Top Tops for Watercolour Artists, Geoff Kersey imparts his knowledge and expertise to artists of all abilities, demonstrating how to paint skies that give a sense of cohesion, place and atmosphere to your landscape paintings. Painting skies is also the best way to learn how watercolour behaves, and there is a large section at the start of the book that explains the techniques you need to produce a broad range of effects. Including a stormy sky, a summer sky, an evening glow, a sunset and low cloud. This comprehensive guide also includes information on the materials you need, drawing and sketching, using photographs, composition, colour and perspective, and throughout the book are examples of Geoff's finished artworks to provide inspiration and ideas for compositions of your own. The book finishes with six glorious, step-by-step projects to put into practice all you have learnt and give you the confidence to incorporate stunning skies into your own watercolour landscape paintings.
