Watercolour Rainbow: Exploring the colours in your palette book by Hazel Soan

Hazel Soan’s new 144-page hardcover book Watercolour Rainbow is an inspiring yet practical book on colour. She sets out to encourage and inspire all watercolour artists to make really radiant and colourful paintings. Hazel takes each main colour in the palette in turn (chapter by chapter) and shows how to use the pigments to their maximum effect with lots of practical hints and tips throughout, as well as projects in focused detail. All artists, whatever their level, seek advice on how to improve their paintings and this exciting book will inspire all watercolourists to use their palette to the maximum effect. She explores every aspect of colour mixing, characteristics of pigment, transparency and opacity and advice on colour combinations to create a vibrant and exciting painting.
