2 comments about Watercolor Handbook.
- It's a pity that this book has not been reprinted. I found it in the library, and felt, after reading through it, that it is one of the better books for beginners on water-colour painting. It provides simple exercises in abstract painting, as well as figurative, landscape and still life water-colours. There are also tips on painting nudes and animals. Best of all, it shows how these simple techniques were used by the great masters like Delacroix, Gauguin, van Gogh, Renoir, Klee and Cezanne to create beautiful paintings. Techniques are supplemented by reproductions from pages of the great masters' sketch books. This is a simple but effective book.
- At first I only want to find some information for painting with watercolour. But when I read this book, it is very encouraging me. I have never study a watercolour with such depth as the book has directed me. It really helps me to appreciate great masters work. You will feel yourself able do the same as the book tell you. Also, it is simple and not too complicated to understand.

1 comments about A Moral Compass: Seventeenth and Eighteenth Century Painting in the Netherlands.
- Perhaps the best thing about the three essays published in this exhibition catalogue is their readability. You don't need to be a student of the History of art to appreciate and understand them. However, they are by no means dumbed-down either. The images chosen for the exhibition are truely lovely. There are genre scenes, sea scapes, still lives (both floral and breakfast images), church interiors, and potraits. It is a wonderful little gem.
