"Encourages an intuitive, meditative practice to inspire original creations . . . the sense that everyone should try it . . . pours off of the page." —Foreword Reviews
In this beautiful book, artist Kateri Ewing, author of Look Closer, Draw Better, guides you through a series of simple creative projects using a soulful, meditative, and reflective process. Whether you're picking up a paint brush for the first time or are an experienced artist, you'll discover and deepen your creative potential through these exercises, because everyone can make art. Each project results in two art pieces: one to keep for yourself, and then another one, such as a postcard or mini painting, to share with someone else or send out into the world, to spread their color, creativity, and joy in new places.
With Watercolor Is for Everyone, you can learn how to build a daily practice and how to set intentions and create, even if you have just 10 minutes a day. The projects draw inspiration from poetry, music, literature, and the natural world, and invite experimentation with a variety of sources, from tarot and oracle cards to rocks and feathers. You'll pursue your personal passions through accessible projects as you build your artistic skills, confidence, and creativity.
"Written in a warm and inviting tone that is both inspirational and aspirational, this is an excellent introduction for artists of all levels to the rewarding medium of watercolor." —Library Journal (starred review)

      Starred review from June 1, 2020

      Craftsy superstar and noted art instructor Ewing (Look Closer, Draw Better) truly believes that with the right inspiration, anyone can be an artist. To prove her point, Ewing's latest how-to guide, which stresses the importance of the learning process over that of the finished product, takes advantage of the fluid nature of watercolor to help novice artists (as well as established painters in need of a slight kick in the pants to their imagination) unlock their inner creative geniuses. After providing concise and clear information about the necessary tools of the watercolor trade and how to care for them, Ewing sets forth a series of 21 intuitive lessons that are drawn from the world around us and allow users to experiment with a range of objects in the creative process. VERDICT Written in a warm and inviting tone that is both inspirational and aspirational, this is an excellent introduction for artists of all levels to the rewarding medium of watercolor.--John Charles, formerly of Scottsdale P.L., AZ
