Boats can be tricky things to paint, but Terry will show you the ropes (literally) and have you painting marine subjects with confidence.

This is a straightforward book that forms a nicely progressive course that starts from simple shapes and builds up from smaller craft to fully-rigged sailing ships.

Terry is an excellent teacher and he knows just which steps to include and which to leave out so that his demonstrations are clear and uncluttered.

He is able, for instance, to explain water-related colours comprehensively in just two pages and to deal with rigging and sails in another four.

At no time will you feel either overwhelmed or left short of information.

This is a book filled with hints, tips and demonstrations and will take you right through from the basics to large craft in sail on a rough sea or a populated harbour scene with several craft and onlookers. As you'd expect from Terry, it's the perfect guide.
