Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Antidote for cliches
Review: I find this book a superb counter to the myriad watercolor books on the market. There is nothing wrong with the realistic painting those books encourage and teach, but the medium offers much more and this book opens up those other vistas.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Good ideas for starting a watercolor painting.
Review: If your looking for different compositions to try out in watercolor, this books fits the bill.

I liked the great descriptions of compositional techniques which is followed by large color painting examples.

Some of the painting examples scream for you to do them better. What a challenge!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Essential for those doing abstract in watercolor
Review: This is not your average watercolor book. It was recommended to me by an artist of some repute, who uses the principles to paint non-abstract, but very expressionistic watercolors.

Somewhere in the examples of various artists' works, you might find something to stimulate your own sense of the abstract. There are exercises to free up the imagination and use different ways of looking at composition or watercolor media to express new ideas. Not for those looking to do ultra-realism.
