Lovely eBook
I bought this book so I can learn how to really show light in my paintings. Lela’s seven stages technique has been proving to be very helpful. It gives me a strong foundation to approach all my watercolors. I definitely recommend it to those artists who want to learn how to easily bring light and shadows, and softness and space in their watercolors.
Also, I love that this I got this book as an iBook. If I need to see a detail of the painted demonstration, the magnifying glass in the iBook is heaven in contrast with poor picture resolutions so common in printed books. In the iBook, adding comments, notes, highlights etc is a lot easier and more fun. Not to mention that you can carry your entire library wherever you go :)
Good book
