“After 25 years of teaching thousands of novice watercolorists the simple methods contained in this book, I firmly believe that anyone willing to follow the directions and do the world cannot fail to achieve a successful picture. If I can do it, so can you.” – Jack Reid

Control your brush with ease

Master the four basic watercolor techniques – the flat wash, the graded wash, the wet-in-wet and the dry-brush

Take the “Five Steps to a Painting” – step-by-step demonstration guide you from one color to five, to make your paintings “sing” with color

Use photography and photocopying to create paintings inspired by life
