Rating:  Summary: Paint yourself a reference manual Review: I have several books on color theory in watercolor and allrecommend that you do exercises to practice choosing apallette. This book is cleverly printed on 140 lb watercolor paper,a very useful weight as it won't buckle very much when wetted... Someof Handprint's pallettes are those of other well known watercolorists,so this is a good place to visit if you buy this book. The bookhas exercises on each page; so put in extra sheets of 140 poundwatercolor paper along side for any other pallettes you try out or foryour own developments. If you do pastel, acrylic or colored pencil,this book works just as well.
Rating:  Summary: Coloring Book Really Teaches Review: I recommend Nita Leland's Coloring Book for leaning colors and keeping a record. Before I've done color exercises here and there but never could keep up with the different pieces of paper; the book provides a record that's always available. Just finished the Split Primary page and found it very helpful. I think these exercises will help my painting. This book can be a compainion workbook to Leland's "Exploring Color" but it also stands on it's own.
