5.0 out of 5 stars
Beautiful and useful
The information inside this book made me understand the basics of the Sumi-e art. I have little knowledge on painting, and most of it on olio based paints. The simplicity of this tecnic it's astonishing, and this book show the different stages, from basic strokes to complex creations. Very good piece to have in your collection if you are an art enthusiast.

Better go with his other book
I've purchased both of Lian Quan Zhen books, "Chinese WC Techniques: Painting Animals" and "Chinese Painting Techniques for Exquiste Watercolors". Painting Animals has the initial info that is supplied in his Exquisite Watercolor book. He does go into more animals in Painting Animals but Exquisite Watercolor provides all you need and I think it's a better book.

Had attended a week-long workshop with the artist so the book was a refresher. Not sure if someone who had never learned this style of watercolor painting from Lian or other Asian influence would be able to use the book. However the book itself is excellent in quality, detail, and content.

This review is from: Chinese Watercolor Techniques - Painting Animals (Hardcover)
I eagerly anticipated the arrival of this book because I thought his first book was great but this was a slight disappointment. I love animals and I love painting them but the examples in this book were not as appealing or as enjoyable to paint and the results were not as good as those in his general Chinese watercolor book.
