For Love of Watercolor & Creating New or old to watercolor, this book is for you! So well written & Sarah explains everything so clearly. You may as well be sitting right next to her at her grandmothers desk😍. I love her style & graciousness & it can be felt in every page. It’s about letting your creativeness come out & how you will enjoy using watercolor to show a little piece of love & creativeness to others. It’s a wonderful book & I couldn’t recommend it more...💖😊👍🏼Obsessed! Preordered this as soon as it was announced! If you’re looking into getting into watercolor this is THE book for you. This book was made with pure soul and it shows. It’s beautifully crafted and curated and the knowledge it contains is far worth more than I spent on this book. I love the organization and in depth detail that went into every page. The techniques are structured clearly and well organized. I’m so excited to learn and grow in skill with this book! If you’re on the fence just buy it. This would also make a beautiful gift to anyone looking into getting into watercolor, it’s great for all skill levels. I would highly recommend.NOT recommended. Boring, dull and uninspiring This is a workshop billed as "modern botanicals in watercolor" but it's not very modern and it's not much of a workshop. In fact, I don't recommend this book to either beginners, to whom it's targeted or anyone else doing watercolor of flowers and plants.1. The few paintings are utterly uninspiring (see image)2. the paint names are "twee" things like "raspberry." What is raspberry? Do you mean "quinacridone magenta"? Which is a color I can go buy from Daniel Smith or Winsor Newton? If so SAY SO.3. Lots of beginner stuff like photos of paint smears on palettes.4. Some very blah drawings in the back to trace but not much on draftmanship.5.The drawing of plants and the illustrations are small and really boring.I went through this book and it was the biggest let-down.Totally skip this book.
