LarsonEverybody loves this book and certainly Whitney is mentioned by many good artists as having been their instructor or inspiration. But I found it average. Okay. Some good information and artwork. Good foundation sort of stuff. But I didnt read the instruction or see the work and get wowed into suddenly learning something that would turn me into a watercolor wizard. Yet this book was around when so many others were not even in the planning. Whitney was there years ago teaching and inspiring and what he said then was new. For me; it is just that others....maybe his disciples; have since said the same thing. Maybe a good book for beginners.3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Just excellent.
