Eye Candy

The last "Splash 10" book is really a fantastic book. So many great paintings and creative artists make you want to get your brushes out and start painting. The inspiration they provide is a great gift. A very well-worth purchase.

Splash 10 is a huge Splash!

I have most of the Splash series and I think 10 is one of the best yet. I love to see what other watercolorists can do. Their imagination abilities are truly remarkable. Splash 10 is also special to me as my teacher, Susan Stuller, has two paintings included. Marti Franks

Another Big Splash

Rachel Rubin Wolf must be doing something right with now a tenth in the series. The Splash series is a collection of current watercolor artists and some of their most inspiring work. This one is Passionate Brushstrokes. The colors, the ideas, the perspective of the paintings are once again terrific. It is especially helpful, as an artist, to read from each artist their breakthroughs, their inspiration, their secrets along with each painting in the book. It is not a how-to book but looking through the book is motivating and inspiring if you are trying to get a new painting going.
