Serious amateur watercolor artists will value books in this series, both for their quick and easy-to-follow practical advice, and for their handy size: they're small enough to carry along when painting at outdoor locations. Each book presents dozens of demonstrations in easy-to-follow steps. There are also tips on choosing a particular subject for its visual interest, mixing and applying colors, and mastering basic watercolor techniques, including washes, dry brush, scumbling, masking, and directional brushwork. This practical book gives advice on painting foliage, flowers, and meadows, gates and fences, skies and trees, ponds, cornfields, country houses, and much more.
