After I ordered this book I was not sure it would be that useful. Boy, was I wrong! The book has marvelous ideas on how to improve your paintings by moderating and changing colors, and moving objects around. It makes you really look at a picture and see how it can be enhanced to create a more beautiful painting and tells you the techniques for making those enhancements. It is not a how-to do basic watercolor book for a beginners (which I am) but I believe it will be much used after I get the basics under my belt.
