Review on 🎨 Watercolor, Pen & Ink Painting: Unleashing Creativity with Fluid Techniques by Barbara Simmons

Revainrating 3 out of 5

good book but 70% duplicate of her other book

Do yourself a favor and check out this book's table of contents and how to create pen and ink textures with watercolor. They have exactly 8 chapters identical to the word. In it you will get 6 additional chapters and some examples. I felt a little cheated buying both books because in a way I paid almost $23 for the three chapters that are not included in this book. Don't get me wrong, I love the way she writes her books: I love her introduction to Ink One, which is why I wanted these two. but I just feel like it's always the same between books with very little change - almost like an edition and not a totally different NEW book. I think if the author didn't have enough material for a second book, she should have either combined both books (that would have been my choice) or waited and published "advanced" when she was done.

Pros
  • Sturdy workmanship
Cons
  • Damaged
