review: Editorial Reviews Review “Highly recommended.” -- Library Journal From the Publisher In Developing Your Watercolors, the emphasis is on the importance of direct observation and those techniques that will enable you to build on your existing skills. The book is designed to encourage a sense of achievement at every stage. The first section looks at suitable art materials and getting the most out of sketching and painting a location, while the second part is concerned with using source material effectively. Bellamy then moves on to a discussion of color and techniques and concludes with suggestions for continuing your progress and exploring new directions. Superbly illustrated with David Bellamy’s own paintings, this is an excellent source of instruction and inspiration for all aspiring watercolorists.
