Painting in Watercolor The Indispensable Guide David Webb 9781770857384 Books Reviews
- Wonderful pictures, and inspiring ideas.
If sometimes I feel like painting and can't come up with ideas, I reach for this book. It's beautifully produced, with clear instruction and beautiful illustrations .
I thought it was sad that a reviewer said she gave it only three stars because it took 7 days to get there. This is ridiculous and unfair to the artist. should read these kinds of reviews before publishing them. I'm sorry to say that some people are just idiots. Critiquing a book based on shipping illustrates this perfectly. - There are so many books available on the subject of watercolor painting that one can get bewildered as to which one is "best" for you. Simply put, no one book is the "best" because of the complexity of the subject. Watercolor is a wonderful and yet sometimes awfully difficult medium. Therefor the painter needs all the help he or she can get on the demonstration of the basics. One needs a book on this subject to be clear and unambiguous, particularly for the beginner or the painter who has dabbled in watercolor but wants to go to the next step. In that capacity this book is excellent!
I often add a watercolor book to my collection purely because of the painting examples that are included. The text may be boring, poorly written or even useless but the watercolor illustrations can make it worthwhile having. The examples in this book by both the author and other artists achieve that. The demonstration illustrations are clear and the selection of other artist's works are varied enough to show the reader a great variety of approaches to watercolor painting. - This book can be a textbook for all levels of painting. The instructions are so clear that I can literally paint along as though reading a recipe for a cake. I've painted many fun and easy paintings from this book. It's also a lovely coffee table book.
- A fantastic book filled with examples and instructions, and also some philosophy on watercolor painting and techniques. A very good read and superbly helpful to me as an intermediate watercolorist.
- Lovely book. Would recommend it to intermidiate or advanced painters.
- This is a very good basic book. It covers all aspects of water color painting and I'm sure I'll be referring to it often.
- Purchased for my father in law who really enjoys the content of the book so far. My wife and I originally choose it because we found it to have clear instructions and a very nice layout that was pleasing to the eye. This did not disappoint, we might pick up another if the FIL thinks it's worth us getting our own copy.
- Started reading it and I'm already impressed. Easy to understand and covers the information well.
