Introduces basic materials and techniques and maintains that watercolor is a medium that should first be played with, not controlled, and that art is ideally an individual expression that is not to be judged.
Most art books are just depressing for people like me. They give you step-by-step directions to do something, but I can't actually do any of the steps.
This book is different. It helps you to discover your own techniques and style through low-pressure exercises. I wish I had come across it sooner.
