At first it was hard to read the info in this book because I wanted to look at every painting and all the detail! So many great watercolor works in here. But once I actually got to reading, I really gleaned a lot of useful information. All of the tips and hints are broken down into easy instruction. The implements used and color choices are explained. There are lots of great color mixing guides, and progressional paintings are used to show you the effects of layering color and how to achieve it. She explains even how different grips on your brush can create different effects. I also loved seeing how to convey a mood for your painting, how to capture weather and light and how interpret rhythm. This will really be a useful tool for me as I navigate this new medium. I'm really excited now to set up my canvas and get started!
I received this book from the publisher is exchange for an honest review.
