About this book

An Essential Part of Any Art Library

Four decades after its initial debut, renowned artist Foster Caddell's Keys to Successful Landscape Painting is back by popular demand.

Foster Caddell devoted his entire life to his art, beginning with developing a sophisticated drawing technique while in high school. He was employed as a lithographer before serving with the US Army Air Corps in World War II, documenting life in the Pacific Theater with his sketchbook and watercolors. Upon returning to civilian life, Caddell continued working in lithography while engaged with freelance illustrating and portraiture, and he began teaching after being approached by local aspiring artists eager to learn his techniques. From these humble beginnings, Foster Caddell soon became the founder/teacher and CEO of the largest private art school in southern New England, located in Voluntown, Connecticut.

Intended for intermediate to advanced artists, this is not your standard how-to art book. Using his own artwork as a visual aid, Foster gives the reader 50 tips, or "keys," for solving a variety of problems in oil-based landscapes. Foster Caddell packs decades of wisdom into the pages of this must-own guidebook for artists of all skill levels.

Be sure to complete your library of Foster Caddell's works with his Keys to Painting Better Portraits (hardcover, 1626545944) and Keys to Successful Color (hardcover, 1626545774), also published by Echo Point Books.

Foster Caddell's Keys to Successful Landscape Painting is also available from Echo Point Books in hardcover (ISBN 1635610427).

On Location: Drawing the Outdoors
<p><b>A journey through drawings by groundbreaking nineteenth-century artists who left the studio to look outside for inspiration</b></p><p>Featuring over 150 drawings and watercolors by some of the nineteenth century's most celebrated artists, <i>On Location: Drawing the Outdoors</i> investigates a monumental shift in artistic practice: the moment artists stepped outside the studio for inspiration and understanding. From Edouard Manet and William Blake to Paul Cézanne and Caspar David Friedrich, this publication includes works by artists spanning national and regional schools across Europe.</p><p>Guiding readers on an artistic expedition, this publication charts ten trails or thematic pathways through the collection, replicating the thrill of outdoor exploration and encompassing the rich variety of nature's subjects. By tracing patterns of artistic experience, the obstacles and opportunities encountered outside, and the materiality and techniques of nineteenth-century works, the book asks critical questions--what constitutes a landscape, and what does it mean to draw <i>the</i> outdoors rather than to draw <i>while</i> outdoors?--and invites readers to consider these works in the context of contemporary issues of environmentalism, the relationship between art and technology, and more.</p><p>Distributed for the Harvard Art Museums</p><p><b>Exhibition Schedule: </b></p><p><b>Harvard Art Museums, Cambridge, MA</b><br>(September 18, 2026-January 17, 2027)</p>
