  People painting with Watercolor September 5, 2008 As a watercolor painter and dealing in art books, I consider this to be tops for the price if you are interested in people painting.
  Basic People Painting: A Brief Overview February 23, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
The cover of this book caught my eye as an artist just mustering the bravery to paint people. The suggestions of human movement, without minute, photo-like details, suggested the book was a super way to start incorporating people into one's paintings. Simple strokes suggest people and their activities.
However, the book does even more than that. It discusses and illustrates how bodily proportions vary at different ages, provides samples of people in various cultural dress, and even discusses facial shadows, etc.
For the beginner people watercolorist -- this book may be all they will need to achieve results that are satisfying and vital.
  This book will make a dramatic difference in your portraits. June 1, 1998 29 out of 29 found this review helpful
Having stumbled upon this book quite by accident, I was thrilled to find that the clear format, easily followed instructions, and wonderful graphics resulted in instant improvement of my watercolour portraits. There are suggestions about layers of color, highlighting, organizing your image, to name a few, that will add life and dimension to your work quickly and easily. This book will be a welcome addition to any reference library that a watercolor portrait artist is compiling.
