Throughout these books and the television series, my aim
has been to introduce you to the fun and excitement of watercolor painting. By
giving
you the fundamentals, I am leading you through the door and taking you to where
the path begins. It's up to you to follow the path to wherever it may lead. My
hope is that, as you paint, your talent grows, you'll consider going on to
take classes in advanced watercolor techniques. With watercolor, as with all
forms of art, you never stop learning. I still consider myself a student, intent
on becoming a master.
The objective of these guidelines is to briefly explain the
mechanics of watercolor painting in order to spark your imagination and inspire
you to paint. Experience will, ultimately, be your best teacher. Allow yourself
the time to absorb the fascinating qualities of these paints. Rewards will soon
follow.
I have provided you with a variety of subjects in these lessons - still lifes, flowers, landscapes and seascapes. You should be able to paint any of your own favorite subjects from hereon after. Do as I have done and work always to elevate the level of your watercolor painting. Challenge yourself to do something better each time.
