Organized like a cookbook, Watercolor without Boundaries allows you to jump in, and try any idea presented. The step-by-step demos are cross-referenced to direct you right to the techniques. You'll follow basic 'recipes' but can add or substitute ingredients to create your own interpretations. Demos include foliage as a way to frame your subject; starting with a range of values; layering color; combining traditional with non-traditional techniques; creating paths of light on wet and dry papers; and much more.
