Customer Reviews

This book if fun and informative.

I love this instructional book for just that reason. It shows me just how to accomplish the varied techniques used to create my landscape painting. I enjoy the vibrancy with which Ms. Soan paints. This book would be a good choice for the beginning watercolor artist.

This is a great book for beginners.

The book gives step by step directions with pictures. It presents techniques for painting beaches, hills, waterfalls, fields, clouds, mist, pathways, etc. Although there is a section on color in the book, it is not consistently discussed in the step by step instructions for the different techniques. The use of ceramic stucco, wax resists, salt crystals, and sponges are introduced. As a beginner in watercolor, this book is one of my favorites.
