David Bellamy

The wild places of Britain

Watercolour landscape expert and renowned author, David Bellamy, has a particular liking for winter subjects, since the landscape at this time is not overwhelmed with green. Here he shares his expertise in capturing winter scenes, from how to wrap up and do rapid outdoor sketches to capturing mist, late autumn colours, bare tree trunks and various types of snow, through using rogue colours, making the most of low lighting and introducing early spring elements. There are four sections: late autumn, winter, deep mid-winter and early spring, and four beautiful step-by-step projects.

David Bellamy's Arctic Light

David Bellamy is a natural story teller whose memoir will be packed full of funny anecdotes and observations. It is the story of how a city boy, brought up in the middle of London, went for a trip into the countryside one day, an event which was to transform his life by setting in motion the amazing love of nature which would make famous this larger-than-life character. In his infectious style he illumines on, amongst other things, the fact that his father, the manager of a branch of Boots, had to grease his hair straight - because in those days managers of Boots weren't allowed to have curly hair! Then there was the time he and his brother discovered an exploded bomb, kept in the garden shed - and then accidentally blew off the front of the house with it. He reveals his secret passion is ballet dancing - and how his mother only found out about it when she saw him on stage at the Fairfield Hall in Croydon. His career as an academic, then author, broadcaster, consultant and television personality, spans 35 years and his main passion - campaigning for the environment - have led to many adventures including his being twice imprisoned in the Third World.
