A Year of Watercolour: A Seasonal Guide to Botanical Watercolour Painting

Exactly what I was looking for! Beautiful, step by step, clear instructions on how to paint with the watercolours especially for a novice. It explains the materials, painting techniques, choosing colours. I only got this book because I wanted to learn how to paint my favourite peacock butterfly. I’m so happy with this book. The author is such a talented artist! I would love to try out some of the other books. This book would make a truly beautiful present for someone at any age.

I've been following Harriet on YouTube for a couple of years and this book does not disappoint. The projects are wonderful and her clear and helpful instruction is wonderful. The layout of the book into the seasons is a wonderful concept and I would very much recommend this to anyone with an interest in watercolour! I've got the Kindle version but will be buying the actual book too!

Very informative on colour and colour mixing. Ideal for beginner and advanced who want to improve on delicate and fine watercolour mixes . I like them so much I have all three .

I love this book. It takes you through all of the stages, including colour mixes, to help you produce beautiful paintings. If you enjoy working with watercolours, this book is a must buy.

Liked all,disliked nothing. Inspires me to try.

Great book, Harriet is my go to lady for art

I had this in my basket for weeks before I decided to buy it. I already had the first two books and thought this might be just more of the same. I was wrong. Lots of new content and I think better than the previous books. Glad I bought it.

Such a beautiful book where you can find Harriet De Winton's watercolour world. Everything is so well presented and explained that everyone can enjoy painting even beginners like me! I could easily give 10 stars if I could!

Wonderful watercolor instruction book on a variety of subjects. Provides full illustrations step by step and solid instructions for each subject matter. Excellent book.

This is the second book of Harriet's I have purchased, the other was an E Book. This book has lovely examples of many of the things I enjoy painting. I don't think I could have coped 12 months ago when I began watercolour, but they are ideal with a little experience. I just love it! It is perfect to pair with her You Tube Channel which has full tutorials on.

Contempla hermosos dibujos en acuarela de las 4 estaciones, está muy útil para principiantes que están interesados en pintar plantas y flores. Viene bien armado. Llegó antes de tiempo y muy bien protegido

O livro é bonito, ainda não pratiquei, mas acredito que o passo a passo está bem explicado e vai ajudar quem é iniciante, como eu.

This is the second book I have purchased by Harriet De Winton of de Winton Paper Co. It is a beautiful book filled with delightful narrative, detailed instructions, and beautiful paintings that span a year of seasons. She uses multiple step by step demonstrations for each painting. Her demonstrations are clear and concise and enable me to paint lovely renditions of her paintings. I love all of the foliage, florals, and natural elements found it the book. However, I particularly love the landscapes. These are new to this second de Winton watercolor book. (Her first book is equally wonderful. It is called Modern Botanicals. I strongly recommend it, too.) All this to say, I give this book my highest recommendation. I am a student artist, and I have found this book is a great tool in my artist's tool kit. One more recommendation, Harriett has a marvelous social media presence. You can paint with her on her dewintonpaperco youtube site. You can find her on Instragram and Patreon as well. She is a wonderful teacher. I have learned so very much from her. Best of luck to you on your watercolor journey.
