Painting Watercolor Botanicals: 34 Projects for Flowers, Foliage and More

New Botanical Painting is a beautiful book. My order was for a used book in good condition. I received a new book, signed by the author. Filled with contemporary watercolor artworks and more than 30 step-by-step projects...beautifully illustrated; I am excited to learn from the UK's, Harriet De Winton. Would definitely recommend her book.

I have several watercolor books and so far this one is my favorite. My picture shows the first three projects in the book that I completed in one night. I’m a newbie to watercolor and I very much appreciate the instructions for larger flowers along with instructions for a smaller version. Following the instructions in the book was the first time I’ve ever been able to paint a rose that I felt looked like a rose. That alone is worth the pace of the book! I would say once you have the basics of watercolor down this book will show you how to paint several flowers and leaves, etc…and even more than one variation of each. I’m very happy with my purchase.

Brings logic to what seems like chaos when painting flowers and patters.Kindle version allows zoom for details of strokes.

I love painting however my skills and composition are lacking. I bought this along with its counterpart book to help better my skills. The instructions and illustrations are easy to understand and follow. I am also planning on buying her third book. 💖

I love this book. It’s so beautiful and the tutorials are easy to follow. I want to order more to give as presents

This is the best botanical watercolor book I have purchased! It makes so much sense project by project.

The book is a good reference tool

This books comes in two versions. Based on the some of the negative reviews they never took the opportunity to read why and bought them both. The blue book is the UK version and the white book is the US version. Both are identical in a lot of ways. Some of the lingo my be different from UK to the US version. A lot of people get into these types of crafts expecting a book to be able to turn them Into what they see on TV or paper. Understand it takes a lot of practice and trial and error but you’ll get there. Don’t give up! Practice makes perfect! Also, invest in the right material. Buying paints that are not ideal for watercolors, brushes or paper will not bring out your work. It can be an expensive hobby but can be done on a budget with quality material at a fraction on the cost. I have nothing against Michael’s, Joann Fabric or Hobby Lobby but these stores don’t carry the type of materal artist use. I would recommend finding an art store near you. The best with supplies will be near colleges and art districts. Here you can ask questions, get guidance and even classes. Remember this is not suppose to be stressful but a relaxing time. I hope my review was able to be helpful. Happy watercolor painting everyone.

Instruction and pictures are clearly explained. Exactly what I needed for learning to do botanicals. I have some experience with watercolor but struggle with botanicals. This is an excellent book. I took the plunge to buy it when I saw the price had been reduced, making it more affordable for me.

A great step by step for who wanta to paint flowers! Amazing book!I would recommend to buy hardcopy version.

What a beautiful book. It has some really easy to follow tutorials. It's really a great informative book. I love it. You won't be disappointed.
