Terrie's Reviews > Breaking the Rules of Watercolour

3.5 stars
Not really a how-to book as much as it provides insight into her particular painting choices and style. She breaks down the broad steps in creating 10 different paintings of hers. Known for her still lifes, she discusses how she develops the actual still life set up, and then how she adapts as she begins painting. I enjoyed how she talked about a couple of paintings that took her out of her comfort zone and how she approached creating them.

An interesting book, particularly if you like her sort of abstracted way of approaching a landscape or still life, but even if it's not your favorite style, there's information for the new or experienced watercolor painter to find.
