Collaboratively compiled and edited by the team of Pamela Wissman, Bethe Ferguson, and Gina Rath, The Big Fat Book Of Watercolor Basics is a beautifully illustrated, 303-page compendium of step-by-step instructions on basic watercolor painting. These practical, "hands on" lessons make it fun and easy to create a water color painting of any subject matter. From selecting materials, to choosing and mixing colors, to basic principles of composition; to controlling the paint; to creating texture and lighting effects, every facet of watercolor painting is superbly covered, including the use of reference photos; and the use of color to instill energy and excitement into the visual image. An ideal addition to art school and community library reference collections, The Big Fat Book Of Watercolor Basics is a "must" for anyone wanting to try their hand and imagination to the creation of inspiring and visually entertaining watercolors.
