Leave your artistic insecurities behind as you easily re-create the simple but beautiful paintings in Art Made Easy: Easy Watercolor.

Easy Watercolor offers you a definite way to succeed as a beginning artist. Without getting bogged down in a lot of technical detail, just gather a few inexpensive supplies and put paintbrush to paper! Even if you have never painted with watercolors before, the engaging and easy subjects are simple to re-create by following the step-by-step progressive images.

Projects include:

• Brushstrokes and shapes
• Letters
• Botanicals
• Still lifes of everyday objects
• Animal portraits
• Landscapes and architecture
• And much more

And the best part is, as you're painting, you'll be familiarizing yourself with art concepts without feeling like you're taking a serious class. If you want to move on to more difficult subjects, you'll have a basic understanding of color, value, form, texture, perspective, composition, and more.

With the simple, fun, and low-pressure approach found in Walter Foster's Art Made Easy series, absolutely anyone can create a work of art! Continue your streak of creative successes with another book in this series, Easy Drawing.
