    Paint a stunning range of mountain-themed postcard-sized watercolor scenes, in 15 half-hour lessons with popular author and artist Lesley Linley.

    Fast, fun results in 15 30 minute lessons, with full-size templates included!

    Within this inspiring, practical book are full instructions for 15 small-but-perfectly-formed, mountain-themed paintings. Highly varied, the projects range from atmospheric mountains looming through the mist to close-up rocky waterfalls, and show you how to use classic watercolor techniques to produce beautiful postcards to keep, send or show off.

    • The beginner-friendly projects are packed with hints and tips and structured step by step, making it easy to follow the instructions and achieve your own fantastic results!
    • Each of the 15 projects takes just 30 minutes, so are quick and easy to paint in an evening or in a spare afternoon.
    • The paintings are all worked at postcard size – ideal for a 6 x 4in watercolor pad.
    • No drawing is necessary – full-sized line drawings for each postcard artwork are provided at the back of the book

    This book uses material previously published as Ready to Paint in 30 Minutes: Mountain Scenes in Watercolour (9781782216865).
    Lesley Linley has a background in Graphic Design but she learned about watercolour techniques entirely from books. Having discovered a love for the medium, she found she enjoyed sharing her skills and a career in teaching Adult Community Education began. Teaching left little time for her own painting until she moved to Skye. Here she opened a studio in order both to run classes and workshops for local people and visitors from the UK and overseas, and to spend more time painting for pleasure. She is now back in her home county of Derbyshire and continues to run workshops and classes. She has featured in Skye Makers magazine and Paint & Draw magazine. Lesley is a member of the SAA and Made in Derbyshire.
