About this title

Synopsis

Now in its second edition, this informative book – by an artist who began to paint after he retired – focuses on the tips and techniques not found in any other art book. As the title suggests, the author discovered most of the ideas in this book after doing things the hard way and then asking: there must be a better way. Readers will find that A Watercolor How-to imparts information in an easy-to-read format, with touches of humor, that is certain to help even the most reluctant beginner painter. The new edition includes practical tips to help you set-up your work space and palette. Plus there are additional chapters filled with more technical information such as “Some Perspective on Perspective” and “Creating Textures (Without Texting), as well as a new glossary and index. The 128-page book concludes with a chapter featuring dozens of “unique frames” Joe designed for his own paintings. He hopes they will give you some ideas for framing as you go about completing works of art, and displaying them for friends and family. As Joe says, art is adventure meant to be shared.
