Serious amateur watercolor artists will value books in this series, both for their quick and easy-to-follow practical advice, and for their handy size: theyA're small enough to carry along when
painting at outdoor locations. Each book presents dozens of demonstrations in easy-to-follow steps. There are also tips on choosing a particular subject for its visual interest, mixing and
applying colors, and mastering basic watercolor techniques, including washes, dry brush, scumbling, masking, and directional brushwork. This book instructs on using watercolor to catch mood and
atmosphere in seascapes, shore and beach scenes, stormy skies, boats at anchor, boats at sea, and much more.
