Soft cover. Condición: Very Good. 2012 CV Publications paperback edition. Light reading wear else very good condition. From the cover: 'The painter hoists a large canvas to the easel and sorts through a sheaf of images. He picks out a favourite view of Cannon street in the City. With the broadest brush he sweeps a darkened mixture of ochre, umber and cobalt blue, laying swathes of shadow before slashes of light in cream and grey blue. Having established the suggestion of sunlit buildings against a blackened ground he puts the canvas aside to replace it with an Oxfordshire landscape, while glancing at ten more canvases that await development.'In a collection of artist's notes the reader is introduced to the intimate process of landscape painting; from the initial choice of the subject and theme to detail the formation of a work. Oil paintings, watercolours, drawings and sketchbooks from 1964 to 2012 draw on excursions in Cornwall and Dartmoor, and abroad in France, Greece and southern Spain; with a comprehensive record of work from the model, made in life studios from 1995 to 2012.
