longer just a routine task that
must be done — swatching
comes into its own as one of the

pattern can be transformed — by adding a second or third color, fiber, or
yarn — and the fun really begins. With patterns given in both words and

stitches for a perfect finish, estimating yarn quanities for multi-colored

Previously published as the hugely successful Leisure Arts series, these
Art Handbooks are being reissued in a handy format with beautiful new
covers and the same high quality content.
• Packed with colour photographs
PRACTICAL ART
Art Handbooks
• Good basic introductions to each medium
‘As a general introduction for someone putting a toe in the water –
either as a complete novice or as a newcomer to the medium, they’re
a good way of easing yourself in. More perhaps than any other series,
they absolutely stand or fall on how well the authors have understood
the basic brief and, as Search Press usually contrive, they do it well.’

Painting Watercolour Trees
The Easy Way
Watercolour
Landscapes
Step-by-Step
TERRY HARRISON
Following on from his successful book Watercolour Trees, Terry presents
a new edition of this award-winning title, and includes a great selection
of clear, detailed step-by-step demonstrations along with extra tips to
show how to paint beautiful trees quickly and easily. He teaches how to
paint an impression of trees, rather than showing how to reproduce each
leaf, and illustrates the importance of understanding shapes, perspective,
light and shade.

How to Draw and
Paint Fantasy
Combat
A Step-by-Step Guide to
Epic Combat Scenes
MATT STAWICKI
Epic battle scenes beneath
thundery skies, hand-to-hand
combat between good and evil,
the massed forces of darkness
lined up against those destined
to vanquish them, a lone warrior
facing up to a monstrous foe, a slender young heroine wielding a
magical sword: this is the stuff of some of the most exciting and
dynamic art in the fantasy genre. This book will show you how to
create all these scenes, and more: start the easy way by copying
some of the scenes in the book, then work up your skills in the
“tutorial” sections until you become great at sketching out dynamic
figures from scratch, getting the hang of techniques that will stay
with you as long as you keep on drawing.
