Kindle Customer said A wonderful (though British) introduction to the medium.. This book (and the companion video) are wonderful introductions to traditional watercolor painting techniques. Unlike so many, American style books the emphasis is on techniques using a limited range of traditional round brushes (and a mop) instead of all of the 'tricks' and larger array of tools. No sponges, masking liquid, salt, foliage brush, sky brush, tree brush, etc Wonderfully refreshing!
