Featuring colorful contemporary art from Mon Voir design agency founder and Instagram trendsetter Jenna Rainey, this book's fresh perspective paints watercolor in a whole new light.
I really like the concept of this book!
I want to actually sit down and do each daily exercise. But right now life is so busy I’m barely crafting at all and I just haven’t made time for it but I really plan too. Maybe in the new year..and if/when I do it might be fun to share each days progress…or even a weekly post with the progress from the week…anyway I went down a rabbit trail sorry.
OK so I did scan through the first couple days and its a couple pages a reading and telling you the basics….It tells you about different techniques and different brushes. I really think this book is great for beginners or those slightly past beginner that want to strengthen what they know and maybe learn a bit more. Definitely look into this book I think all those who love water colors will benefit from it.
I just got a watercolor set last year and this book would be perfect for beginner in that medium. I have reading and writing though and have not found the time to practice. 🙁
Awww I haven’t watercolored as often as I’d like right now either but hopefully soon 🙂
