Trevor Waugh needs no introduction and is another master of the simple image. Paint 50: Watercolour Figures comes as near as possible to a guide that I've waited many years to see - one on putting figures into larger paintings. Trevor's simple images are full of character and would populate any landscape or townscape admirably with no adaptation. As the days warm up, why not treat your creative self?  -- Henry Malt * The Artist - March Issue *
