The Essence of Watercolour

About this book

Hazel Soans watercolors have won her international recognition; now she helps less experienced painters understand how beguiling and versatile this medium is and master its challenges. Encouraging budding watercolorists to be bold in their use of color and brushstroke Soan emphasizes her belief that tone is king. And by showing how mistakes can be incorporated into a composition she reveals how forgiving watercolor can be. Illustrated with glowing examples of Hazels own work this luminous book also features easy-to-follow demonstrations of every technique.
