I recently took delivery of two wonderful watercolor books, "Watercolor the Easy Way," by Sara Berrenson and "15-Minute Watercolor Masterpieces," by Anna Koliadych. I could not wait to get started and decided to use both for my next composition. I decided to design a cactus painting.
The book by Sara Berrenson has outlines to trace along with instructions and illustrations. The book by Anna Koliadych has illustrations and instruction. Both books are detailed.
I traced the large cactus in the Berrensen book onto watercolor paper and drew the two small succulents by hand from the illustrations in the Koliadych book. I followed the instructions from both books and added some knowledge I picked up from painting cactus previously.
I'm really very proud of the resulting painting!
