«Saisir le mouvement à l'aquarelle» is Douglas Lew's watercolour manual, published by Bordas in hardback in 1991 (in French).
A practical work that teaches how to represent movement in watercolour painting through demonstrations and examples. Organised so that the artist learns to capture the fluidity and energy of the scene, mastering the wet-on-wet technique, gradients and economy of strokes. Its approach combines direct observation, dynamic composition and expressive use of colour, with exercises aimed at loosening the hand and gaining spontaneity in the stroke. It includes numerous illustrations by the author showing the process step by step.
The cover reproduces an abstract painting of blotches and strokes in green, red, orange and yellow. The copy weighs approximately two pounds.
Intended for artists and watercolour enthusiasts who want to delve into the visual language of movement and practise a looser, more expressive painting.
