Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Featuring a detachable fold-out color wheel and clear guidelines, this unique book solves the problem of muddy blends, taking the guesswork out of mixing clean watercolors every time.

While the color groups of a standard wheel are shown, this wheel goes much further, organizing pigments into five categories: transparent nonstaining colors; semi-transparents; opaques; semi-opaques; and whitened and blackened colors. Detailed text explains how color groups interact, some resulting in dull blends, others producing luminous, transparent effects. Readers are treated to abundant examples, step-by-step exercises, and analyses of work by several of today's outstanding watercolorists --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

About the Author
Jim Kosvanec, whose award-winning paintings hang in important American and Mexican collections, lives in the tranquil artists' community of San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
