The remembered image
Working from memory has many practical
advantages; there isn’t the same pressure to work
quickly, the light doesn’t change, and you can
take time to consider your next move. Lucy Willis
discusses strategies for developing a reliable
visual memory in this feature from our December
1989 issue. http://bit.ly/2p1LT3z
Paint snow with Ken Howard OBE, RA
Snow has the power to make even the
dullest of subjects visually exciting. In
this feature from our December 1979
issue, Ken Howard explains how he
frequently seized the opportunity to
capture the efects of snow both in
London and on the moors of Devon.

‘The skeletal trees of winter provide
endless variations of trunk and branch
shapes, silhouetted outlines and
dramatic contrasts of light and dark.’
Discover more from Andrew Wright,
who describes how to sketch and paint
the complex shapes and colours of
winter trees in this feature from our
December 1999 issue.
