Artist Katie Putt guides you through simple step-by-step instructions for 30 mini-masterpieces. Each of the 10 chapters in this book is based around a different three-colour palette, from jewel brights to Scandi calm. Youll need just three pure paint colours to make a start. From these, you will learn how to mix a surprising range of different colours - every hue youll need to complete the three easy-to-follow watercolour projects in each chapter, which range from animals, flowers and plants to baked goods and more. By working with three-colour palettes, youll get to know each different colour of paint intimately. Youll gain an understanding of how different colours interact when mixed or layered, and youll become a pro when it comes to the different characteristics of dark and light washes. By the time youve completed the projects in this book, youll have a sixth sense for colour.
We say: This is the perfect book for beginners as well as more developed artists who want to play around with more limited colour designs to truly gain an understanding of their paints.
