good book

Loisir

le livre était tout à fait conforme à l'état indiqué sur le siteet même avec une couverture plastique de protection !

I saw this book for sale at an art show in London, and bought another book instead. the next day, I went back to get it, and found it was all sold out. I couldn't remember the exact title, but know the publisher' name. Then I embarked on an online adventure in finding the book! I was thrilled I finally did, but even more thrilled when the book arrived and it was everything I wanted and MORE!!I have probably twenty books on watercolor technique and this is, hands down, the BEST. I highly recommend it, and hope it stays in print.

The media could not be loaded. This is a wonderful watercolour techniques book by Robin Berry.It's packed with lots of insightful and concise tips. It's not just on watercolour tips but also on general drawing principles such as composition, using values, etc. One chapter features tips on dealing with different subjects, like landscape, water, flowers, people, buildings, animals, etc.9 step-by-step demonstrations are included. They particularly good because they show and explain the techniques as they are used. The instructions are clear and they detail each painting process. There are beautiful paintings as examples throughout, from Robin Berry herself and other invited artists.The last chapter covers techniques used to create effects, like spraying, glazing, removing colours. It's a short chapter but the examples are great.It's an insightful and inspiring compendium suitable for beginners. Advanced artists might enjoy the examples and ideas suggested.(There are more pictures of the book on my blog. Just visit my Amazon profile for the link.)

Good for beginners. Lots of advice
