It’s a great way to start, and if you are wondering whether this is a paint-by-numbers or coloring book then think again. How does it differ? By providing you with staged photographs of how to fill in those outlines and explaining what you are doing. This is a book designed to make you think about how watercolors are used and learn all those important tricks of the trade so you are ready to tackle some art of your own. Search Press also has a large range of books on watercolor painting for when you are at that stage, but think on this as a safety net for the absolute beginner. It works too - I can remember coloring books with faint outlines designed to be used in this manner that got my own artistic juices flowing in a way that a blank sheet of paper did not. Have a go and see what I mean.
