This was my first time in ordering an item from Amazon.com. How easy to place an order with very good directions.
The book I ordered was very helpful with my water color paintings. It arrived quickly and was in excellent condition.
Since then, I have ordered three more books and can't wait for them to arrive.
Thank you.
The color alone is inspiring with a wonderful format- good exercises as well. This book is motivation in a big way. Clear, informative, great ideas and techniques. Would give it as a gift for sure.
As a relatively new watercolor artist who has purchased a number of watercolor books in the past couple years, I find Watercolor in Motion by Birgit O'Connor is quite possibly the best instructional books I've read. It comes with a DVD which is high quality (which is more than I can say for others by different artists), which goes hand-in-hand with the book. The book and DVD cover a number of important areas which include color and color mixing, movement of water and color, washes, texture techniques, and, especially helpful to me--a demonstration of what can go wrong when you go back into a watercolor to try to "fix" it. The DVD demonstrates how to create, step-by-step, the techniques which are covered in the book. Ms. O'Connor is one of those rare individuals who has the ability to explain things in simple, concise terms, which a new artist will find refreshing. I only wish this book had been available when I was first introduced to watercolors. It would have saved me a lot of frustration as well as watercolor paper. I would highly recommend this book.
