Beskrivning

Instagram star Jeannie Dickson has created a modern and inviting introductory watercolour painting book for adults, beginners, aspiring young artists, and journalers that will be a source of inspiration and art instruction for their creative journey. Hello, Watercolor! offers a fresh approach to painting watercolours with concise and accessible information. Aspiring artists and journalers will immediately be able to apply the techniques they learn on these pages—including brush lettering—to more than 15 exciting step-by-step projects, from painting origami animals, sparkling glass shards, and beautiful alphabets to still life painting of luscious florals, fruits, and fanciful unicorns. Among the features that make this handbook both a valuable learning tool and source of inspiration: • Projects include a list of techniques with cross-references. • Each project includes watercolours used with swatches so readers can make substitutions easily. • Popular colour palettes and colour "recipes" for foolproof paint mixing. • 12 monthly challenges with daily or weekly prompts to inspire painting all year long. • Templates to trace and watercolour paint for some projects. • Ideas to share work and connect with other expert or beginner watercolour artists!
