On a windy day in Dundry, Somerset, we join Jem on farmland as he paints a wistful scene. Using sparing brushstrokes and subtle colour variations he shows how to suggest details of trees and swaying grasses.
In this episode, Jem briefly chats about the terminology used in this series, such as: tone, edges and wash.
