Skipjacks and workboats, tidal rivers and coastal marshes, charming streetscapes, historic houses, and town parks with bandstands—picturesque subjects abound along the shores of Chesapeake Bay and have long made the region a favorite among amateur and professional artists. In Painting the Eastern Shore, accomplished artist and teacher James Drake Iams combines visits to some of the Chesapeake's most beautiful places with step-by-step lessons for learning the art of watercolor painting. This attractive volume will serve as a welcome companion for the amateur watercolorist setting out to paint on location. After offering tips on what equipment to pack, Iams gives specific directions to various Delmarva sites, tells how to set up, and suggests what to look for in a subject. He then discusses a variety of essential techniques: sketching, composition, value, color, control of the medium, capturing depth and handling perspective, wetting the paper, and methods for painting key elements such as clouds, birds, boats, sand, and water. As he introduces readers to the fundamentals of watercolor painting, Iams leads them on a rambling, thoroughly enjoyable tour of memorable places throughout Maryland and Virginia's Eastern Shore and Delaware. Painting the Eastern Shore is illustrated with 49 line drawings, halftones, and color pictures.

Maryland's Eastern Shore is an area rich in American colonial history. Some of the oldest churches in the United States are in this region of Maryland by the Chesapeake Bay. Many churches on the Eastern Shore have, over time, become neglected and forgotten. This book serves as a documentary on many of the remaining churches. My hope is this book will assist in preserving the individual stories of these churches. Also, for this project to showcase the many architectural features and provide a record of historical importance for each church.The idea for this project began in the mid 1980's while living on Maryland's Eastern Shore. Exploring rural areas and towns on the Eastern Shore, many old churches dotting the landscape were a feature which drew my interest. As a photographer who is also interested in history and architecture, I felt compelled to record these wonderful and historic churches.
