Watercolor: Go With the Flow

Summary: TERIFFIC LEARNING TOOL FOR WATER COLOR LOVERS OF ALL LEVELS
Review: Guy Lipscomb has an absolutely marvelous talent for "painting" with words his techniques for putting water colors onto paper. This is a talent that many artist/teacher authors seem not to share. Most art teaching books I've read contain gorgeous artwork, but the descriptive text that comes along with nearly always leaves me lost and struggling somewhere along the way, wondering whether I've missed something in the translation. Mr. Lipscomb, on the other hand, gives such clear and concise instruction that I really believe even the newest beginner can follow along. I'm VERY impressed with this book; from the general information at the beginning, to his glorious descriptions of his "Go With the Flow" technique later on. There is valuable information to be learned in this book for watercolorists of all levels.
I'm truly in love with this book, and I hope he has another book, or two or three, in the works somewhere. I'm waiting...

Summary: A New Way to Water Color
Review: Watercolor is perhaps one of the most beautiful and graceful medians an artist works with. The image of water and colors swirling around a page is like the grace of a ballerina. This book took that dance one step further. By using the open-flow method which is taught in this book you allow yourself to be opened up to a new music to waltz by. The open-flow method immediatly gives you a beautiful back ground that is warm and inviting without being overbearing. The painting seems to have a soul to it before the painting has even been started. The book is easy to follow, and helpful hints are given throughout for techniques and an easier way to do things. This is a book for the beginner to learn and be inspired or the experienced to learn new techniques. I recommend that every aspiring artist read this book and practice its techniques.
