First Steps Painting Watercolors

$19.95 $10.00

A simple, colorful, easy-to-follow and highly inspirational book for beginning watercolor students…appropriate for kids age 10 and older. Many step-by-step examples show paintings as they progress from initial sketches through different layers of background colors, basic shapes and values, to final details. It’s a great book for visualizing how paintings come together through many steps.  The illustrations in this book are painted by an adult, but because of their simplicity they also serve as good exercises for kids. A serious young artist could, for example, try to reproduce each of the painting exercises as learning projects, copying each step as the paintings progress on the pages of the book. In this way, many basic watercolor skills will become part of the student’s new “watercolor vocabulary,” to be used later in their original paintings. 121 pages, full color throughout.
