A Year of Watercolor

• Discover over 30 new step-by-step watercolor projects from best-selling author and artist Harriet de Winton, focusing on observations of nature during spring, summer, fall and winter.
• A Year of Watercolor guides readers through the creation of beautiful and evocative watercolor scenes including the emergence of seasonal plants, the hibernation and migration of animals, speckled eggs in a bird's nest, harvesting vegetables own and much more.
• With a wide range of subjects, Harriet explores the idea of seasonality around the world, whether it's the cherry blossoms that signal spring in Japan, the red and brown leaves of autumn New England, or summer strawberries in the United Kingdom.
• In addition to seasonal tutorials, Harriet includes tips on how to observe and depict nature up close, including creating a travel kit for "painting walks" in nature and recording the growth of a plant over the course of a single season.
