Paperback. Condición: Fine. Benjamin Perkins Ilustrador. First Separate 2nd Printing. Light Creasing on Front Cover; Slight Yellowing Due to Age. ALSO KNOWN AS: The material in this book has previously been published in Painting the Secret World of Nature by Sylvia Frattini, James Lester, Benjamin Perkins and Rosanne Sanders published by Search Press Limited in Great Britain and by Watson-Guptill Publications in the USA. ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Benjamin Perkins, born in 1932, was educated at Sherborne, Trinity College, Oxford, and studied rural estate management at the Royal Agriculture College, Cirencester.

He has had two books published: Trees (1984), for which his paintings and drawings won a Royal Horticultural Society Gold Medal, and A Secret Landscape (1986). EXCERPT: Introduction - Painting is a very individual matter. By describing the way I set about painting wild flowers and similar subjects, as well as some of the techniques that I have developed and find effective, I hope to provide you with useful hints. Do not, however, be discouraged from painting in a freer style if that is what comes naturally to you, or from developing your own methods and techniques. Experimentation is very important in arriving at a style that suits your particular temperament. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.

He is a full member of the Royal Society of British Artists. EXCERPT: Introduction - . . . Once you have learned to use it, you will discover that watercolour has a beauty and inner poetry unrivalled by other forms of graphic expression. It is perfectly conceived for conveying the moods and vagaries of light and colour in the landscape, and its immediacy and delicate sensibilities make it ideal for capturing those fleeting moments of experience denied to the more ponderous and premeditated media . . .
