3.0 out of 5 stars Good information for starting a watercolor experience., November 22, 1998

By A Customer

My experience with watercolor painting is only a few workshops. I found the book gave me some insight to many of the general elements for making a painting better. Each of the 100 Keys are quick and to the point. They have improved me as a starting artist.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't bother, March 21, 2000

By	Never Again (Chicago) - See all my reviews

Unless you live in a cave and never heard of 'watercolors,' don't bother with this book. It's written for 2 yr. olds and has no new imformation. The whole thing is about 60 pages and is the size of Pop Tart. Do yourself a favor and just go to your public library and get a book on painting there.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good book for beginners, December 27, 2001

By	Vivian Lund (Cary, NC USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I am just beginning in watercolors, so I found a lot of useful information in this book. I especially found inspiration in the illustrations used for several of the techniques. There are sections on paints, brushes, mixing colors, wash techniqes, masking techniqes, fixing mistakes, etc. Each topic includes a helpful illustration.
