Packed with useful information, I have no hesitation in recommending 'Watercolor Painting for Dummies' book..
A very good book, covers a wide range subject matter, simple and easy to follow (as the book name implies 'for Dummies'). Would recommend it for beginners and those wanting to improve their watercolour skills and techniques. Well illustrated with plenty of examples and descriptions, ideal as a reference book. Slightly less than A4 size with 294 pages packed with varied and useful information. There is nothing negative to comment on, good value for the money.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
