This is a great little pocket reference book for artists of all levels. It is just a great review to trigger your memory of how to paint many types of everyday things in landscaping. The companion book of Flowers is excellent also.

This is a marvelous little book. For someone who wants to learn water color painting specifically to paint landscapes, as I do, this book lays it all out simply and in enough detail to walk the novice artist through almost every natural scene one would want to paint. The instructions are step by step and clear,as are the illustrations. I love this book and highly recommend it.
