Reviews
First of all, the book itself is beautiful, they do say dont judge a book by its cover but here, please do! The pages are easily removed but dont fall out on their own spontaneously so thats also very good. Each of the designs is printed twice, on both sides of the page. So if you muck up one, you still have a second go at it. the linework is not black, it will blend beautifully into your paint and will look like a light sketch underneath, if it shows at all. Its really quite liberating. Its really good for beginners really, it forgives a lot, you can make mistakes and have them looking cool in the end. The paper is gorgeous, its 90 lbs so not the thickest watercolor paper out there but it takes water beautifully. Overall, I love this book! it would be great for any watercolorist, specially beginners. - Iris Eenmae, thecoloringaddict.com Dec 2016
