Complete Guide to Watercolour
I've just received copies of the reissue of the book I did with Quarto in 2016, so here is a quick peak!
Here in the UK the book is titled 'Complete Guide to Watercolour - All the essential skills you need' and is published by Search Press.

The US version is titled 'Painting in Watercolor - The Indispensable Guide' and is published by Firefly Books.

Thank you for this flip through! I had planned on buying this book some day (sitll learning to draw) based on a review and Searchpress's Look Inside feature, but after seeing your video I will buy it right now, just for the gorgeous pictures to use as motivation 😀

@@davidwebbart I ordered it off Amazon. I think I'm getting the UK version (I'm in Australia so both versions were on Amazon I just picked the one with prime shipping). It's actually only the second book I have invested in, in many years, only because I'm low income. I just had been mulling over wanting something physical to keep me focussed on the the many aspects to learning watercolour (composition, light and atmosphere, texture, etc) because I've only got the internet (and one more illustrative/individual elements watercolour book). And then this book walkthrough popped up and hit all my criteria. Thank you :)

@@angeladee8789 I think you'll enjoy it, Angela. Apart from the practical tips on watercolour technique, there are a great many examples of artists' work in a variety of styles. I'm glad I made the video now.
I have the 2017 Search Press edition of your book. It is such a brilliant book. Love the new cover.

Thank you. I enjoyed working on it, especially finding other artists to include. We wanted a wide variety of approaches to watercolour painting.

@@davidwebbart You certainly achieved a good variety of art in one book. I love telling people about the best art books in my collection and have been working on a review of your book based on the edition I have. As your video was published just before mine was due to be, I will hold mine back until next week and will edit it to refer people to your video for the new cover and flip though and talk more about my thoughts on your book. It will then go into my Search Press book review playlist. As it seems just the cover is new I have not ordered the 2023 version from Search press, even though it was tempting.

@@FizzyStarArt I look forward to seeing your video. I haven't been through the new version line by line, but I think it's mostly the cover that's been updated. I especially like that the new US version has my painting of Dartmoor on the cover.

@@davidwebbart The description on Search Press does not say, revised or expanded and as far as I can tell from their flip through and yours, the content seems to be the same. It is lovely you have both new books.
