Really excellent watercolor tips
I enjoy Mr. Kersey online so I ordered this book. It is worth the price for all of the great tips and wonderful photos. I also like the smaller format.

Great Little Book
Small enough to take with you if you are planning on doing some plein aire paintings or traveling. The author covers beginner issues like materials and brushes: but also more intermediate water colorists questions, as he covers some color mixing and various techniques he uses to achieve his results.

One of my favorites
I own quite a few watercolor painting books, and this is one of several that I've purchased in the past 6 months. It's become one of my favorites, several things have singled out out as quite a gem. The artist has a couple step-by-step examples in the book and I love them for their simplicity. Most of the book focuses more on tips and techniques, again I enjoy the simple way he explains them. It's very much a case for beauty in simplicity. He also talks about not being bound by what your subject photo shows and makes quite a good case for it.The book itself is well made and I have no concerns about it standing up to the tests of time.I will offer some advice to others on buying painting books. Before you buy a book, look up the artist, if you don't like their work there is a good chance you won't like their book either.

Excellent Tips!
A great little book packed full of tips backed up with great examples!I’ve watched a number of videos that Mr Kersey has done and really enjoy his work and the straightforward style of his instruction.The tips in this book include numerous and diverse topics, which go into surprising depth. For example the tips covering the importance of shadows include various examples with the light coming from different directions, examples of the best ways to determine colors of the shadows, and examples showing how a composition can be improved by altering the opacity of the shadows, etc.This books of “tips” includes more content and explanations than many other books designed to be complete tutorials and the composition of the paintings used in the examples are very well done.It is an excellent resource for beginners up to and including advanced amateurs.

This book reminds me how important shadows are. He explains how to make the distant hills look misty. I love the techniques and hope to try them.
