Local Color: Seeing Place Through Watercolor

by Mimi Robinson

Overview

How to understand color’s impact on our perception of a place—and capture its palette in watercolor landscapes and cityscapes.
 
Whenever we first encounter a new place, whether landscape or cityscape, one of the most immediate and powerful sensations comes from its colors, or the palette of colors, which profoundly influence our reaction to and sense of a space. In Local Color, designer and educator Mimi Robinson teaches us not only how to see the colors around us but also how to capture and record them in watercolor.
 
Regardless of your level of painting expertise, Robinson will quickly have you creating personal memories of time, place, and travel through a series of self-guided exercises and illustrated examples.
