A Must Have

One of the ways in which I select a book to buy is to first see can I check it out from my local library. This was the case with, The Ultimate Watercolor Course: Simple Techniques to Paint Like the Pros by Readers Digest. After reading this book, amongst many, I knew that I wanted to own a copy. Why? Because of its abundance of easy to understand knowledge on the subject of Watercoloring (especially for the beginner painter).
The book was like new, it was shipped sooner than I expected and the price was unbelievable. It was the transaction of a lifetime. I'm a permanent customer starting right now.

I loved this book! It covers more topics than any other beginning watercolor book I have read. Each lesson is illustrated to demonstrate the technique they are explaining. Tips are given as well for each lesson... some obvious, some pretty insightful! Yes, it does have a lot of drawing technique lessons and such, but as I like to do a full drawing before painting, I think those sections are very helpful. And it is giving me more ideas about combining drawing with watercolors. I learned a lot from this book, and I would highly recommend it to anyone starting in watercolors. Especially if you prefer to draw your paintings first before putting paint to paper. However, for traditional plein air aritsts that paint without drawing, maybe this book isn't for you. For you, I would suggest looking at a copy at the bookstore before purchasing.
