This book covers the basics of watercolor and then has projects in it with outlines at the back. I liked several of the projects. This book is good for beginners and intermediate painters as well.

This is a great intro to watercolor and offers tips on how to make room in your busy life for art as well as different techniques and brushtrokes and colors. It also includes a section on things you can use your finished paintings for (bookmarks, gift tags, etc) that go beyond the traditional framing. Somehow that had never occured to me and I can't wait to start seeing how I can transform art into useful objects.

Now I am inspired to dig out my watercolor paints and experiment. This book certainly gave me so me ideas to chew on.

This book was very informative!
It has everything! Technique, to glossary, even practice sheets! This is great for beginners and beyond! I highly recommend as it’s reminded me of things I forgot about over the years

Possibly the best book of this type for watercolor. Simple, clean explanations and beautiful illustrations. One section has QR codes for on-line tutorials - I wish there had been more of that.

Beautiful book. Tons of pictures for visual learners and links to tutorial videos. I really liked the progression of skills to help you learn water color. Appreciate the pencil drawings to also get you started.
