mykl-s | Mar 2, 2023 | My library's collection of watercolor books with tutorials is mostly geared toward intermediate skill. So finding a book like this one was a relief. It's not just for beginners but super beginners that don't feel at ease doing normal beginner coloring. Why I go wrong with these exercises it's not a big deal. They're extra simple and make me feel like a kid filling in a coloring book. In fact, initially I wasn't sure if this was for kids. There's no indication that it's for kids any more than any other beginner, but I think it can transform the reading artist back into a kid all the same. I think I'll have more confidence moving on to the few other less-beginner beginner watercolor books at my library now.

leah_markum | Oct 28, 2022 | Delivers on the title: it's definitely a practical course for drawing and painting. As someone who has taken only one art class beyond elementary school, and it was a semester high school course that didn't include acrylics or oils, this book is a fortunate library find. I'll probably check it out again in the future when I'm ready to tackle the oil tutorials. The internet has great resources to read on techniques or watch tutorials, but I find nothing replaces the depth of a good book.

archivomorero | Jun 28, 2022 | Awesome little book originally published in Spanish. Packed with details about light and shading that the bigger books only touch on. I've become a big fan of Barron's art instruction books, especially the little $10 ones, and buying or at least reading this one is a no-brainer if you're an artist.

YESterNOw | Mar 6, 2014 | There is some helpful stuff here, but I found it hard to use as a beginner's self-teaching tool

mahallett | Apr 23, 2009 | This volume reviews basics of human anatomy and shows details of natural postures when models are standing, seated, reclining, and in action. It contains many illustrations showing famous artworks that incorporate nude figures. Serving as both reference sources and instruction guides, the pocketsize Art Handbooks are fine companions for students, artists, and art hobbyists. Barron's Art Handbooks come in four different color-coded categories, each devoted to a different aspect of the graphic arts--genres, techniques, art equipment, and art history. All books have full-color illustrations throughout.

Overall, perhaps the best thing to say is that after I read my library copy, I ordered a copy of the book for my own shelves at home.
