Let a professional artist help you rescue your watercolor paintings in this Q&A-style guidebook that matches common problems and mistakes with proven solutions!

Watercolor painting is difficult to master, and even experienced artists are prone to making mistakes. As a longtime professional artist and teacher, Charles Evans has a huge bank of expert tips, tricks, and techniques for fixing and avoiding common problems in your watercolor paintings. These include:

• How to remove “cauliflowers”
• Where to place your water container to avoid spillages
• What to do if one color is bleeding into another
• How to make distant hills look—well—distant
• Why you keep mixing muddy color
• And more!
 
Each problem begins with a question asked by one of Charles’ students, such as, “How do I stop my trees looking like lollipops?” Charles then provides an easy solution—plus a short demonstration of how to prevent the problem moving forward—making this the perfect resource for those new to, or experienced in, watercolor painting!
