Book
Colors of the West : an artist's guide to nature's palette / Molly Hashimoto.
Organized by color, Colors of the West emphasizes the importance of truly seeing the outdoor spaces around us. The introductory text helps beginners get started with watercolors, while more than 150 of Molly's own hand-drawn and painted scenes of evocative Western landscapes, plants, and animals inspire anyone to pick up a paintbrush. Techniques and tips for outdoor sketching with watercolors are included throughout, and sidebars highlight historical notes and artists related to the featured parks. From the green hues found at Cascade Head on the Oregon Coast and in Yellowstone's quaking aspens, to the red tints that highlight the rocks in Arches National Park and the Redwoods of California, Molly shares her appreciation for the colors of the West--and how the details of natural beauty can be revealed when we stop, observe, and take note of our outdoor world.--page 4 of cover.
