and liked Seasonal Landscapes by Fenwick but hesitate to buy the book because you are afraid that 2/3 of it will be a rehash of his other books don't hesitate to purchase this book. Mr. Fenwick did a superb job. There is sufficient new info to make it worthwhile a purchase. I liked the lay-out with Saturday's exercises prior to Sunday's painting and wished more books would use this concept. I have thoroughly enjoyed the book and feel that this book could be an aid to beginners and intermediate painters. 5 Stars for Mr. Fenwick.

This book is misleading. Alot of the paintings in it are to use acrylic paints as watercolors.
I didn't want a watercolor painting book. I want to learn how to paint with full bodied acrylics. So I will not recommend this book.

I bought this book for my 86 year old mother. She is just re-learning how to paint. She absolutely loved it. Took it out and started painting the water on the rocks scene. I am sure it will take longer then a weekend, but she sure is having fun.
