Customer Reviews

Excellent book.

I just got this book a few days ago and I am very happy I bought it. It's like taking a watercolor class. The author explains brushes, techniques, and has projects for you to do to learn the different brushstrokes. She takes you step-by-step from the initial drawing to the final piece. Easy to understand instructions, lists, and photos. A+++

Great Book

Watercolor: No Experience Required

This book is great! The step-by-step directions gave me the courage to get started. I put my brush to the paper with very pleasing results.

Great Book!! Fun, Easy, and Fast!!

I own several how to books on watercolor and this one by far is the best in my collection. The step by step projects are easy to follow. I have been very happy with the finished projects! This is a very fun, informative book for beginners. You also don't have to be great at drawing to have some nice results from doing the watercolor projects in this book. Definitely would recommend this book!!!

Awesome way to start!

The author of this book definitely knows what she is doing - as I've seen firsthand - she is my watercolor instructor at the college I attend. The book has gorgeous pictures, easy-to-understand instructions, and fun step-by-step projects. You'll be surprised at how easy watercolor will come to you by simply following her instructions. This book is excellent for beginners wanting to get their feet wet to the world of watercolor. You will not be disappointed with this buy!
