5.0 out of 5 stars Uplifting and creative extension of watercolour techniques, April 12, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Watercolor The Spirit Of Spontaneity (Paperback)
This book is an exciting exploration into the possibilies associated with extending your watercolour skills. It covers a wide range of techniques using many and varied items that I would never contemplated (e.g. painting over stretched gauze). Some of the products are not clearly explained, however I'm sure that can be overcome using the email address provided.

4.0 out of 5 stars Inspirational read, December 12, 2008
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Watercolor The Spirit Of Spontaneity (Paperback)
Watercolor The Spirit Of Spontaneity
I'm always on the lookout for books that inspire me to experiment with new techniques that are relatively easy to accomplish. This book certainly meets all criteria; it will serve me well. It showcases styles and techniques of various artists in an easy to understand language with more detail on techniques at the back of the book. I would, however, have enjoyed more chapters on the more abstract approaches to watercolor painting rather than the more traditional methods which the book covers more than adequately.

This review is from: Watercolor The Spirit Of Spontaneity (Paperback)
I just got this book today and can't put it down! The pictures take your breath away. I can't wait to try some of the ideas I garnered from this book. I do wish there had been more information on the paints used, but this book is worth every penny.... What an inspirational book!
