After providing a short introduction and a solid grounding in basics such as materials, color palettes, painting light, drawing and sketching, watercolor techniques, and subject matter, painter Newton (Art Handbook: Painting with Watercolours) goes on to offer the reader half a dozen step-by-step projects that are considerably more complex than the average painting guidebook. Most projects depict atmospheric yet realistic landscapes, but a still life and a portrait exercise are also included. VERDICT Sophisticated enough for intermediate or advanced artists while accessible enough for those with just a bit of experience drawing or painting, this volume will have wide appeal.
