Meh. This was a 'good enough' book on watercolor, but it did not wow me at all.

When I learn something new(ish), I need a book that will grab my attention. This didn't do it.

It's nice you get to know a bit of background about the artist,tips and tricks about their specific artwork and critically analyze it if you will.
