Praise for this book
"I have loved painting along with Zaneena, following her simple, clear instructions and listening to her sweet, cheerful voice. I've never tried landscapes before, nor such bright, beautiful colors. Her love of color has rubbed off on me now. I have learned so much through her courses, with the different techniques applied. It has been like therapy to sit at my desk each time and complete a whole beautiful painting within such a short space of time, often just 30 minutes. So satisfying to see my completed projects, some better than others, but learning something every time. I feel so much more confident now to try a landscape of my own. Thank you, Zaneena--you definitely deserve your title of 'Top Teacher.'" --Gaylene Salomon, Skillshare student
"Zaneena is a great teacher. She goes very gently through all the steps involved several times before starting a project, and is so clear to understand in all her directions." --Tara Padgett-Dickey, Skillshare student
"Zaneena does a great job of walking us through the structure of a layout, showing us how to paint all the various elements we need and then putting them together in a way that enables us to create our own, all in a beautiful style and colors. Her classes are definitely worth the watch." --Jo-Marie Barlow, Skillshare student
"Zaneena's courses are just wonderful! I've taken many now, and each has improved my skills, inspiration, confidence, motivation, and love of painting. She is engaging, uplifting, and encouraging, and loves art so much it's infectious." --Veronica Macramalla, Skillshare student
"Zaneena's watercolor classes have always been top notch. She has in-depth knowledge of watercolor and explains the techniques and methods in a very easy-to-follow way, in a sweet and soothing voice. That's why her classes are so popular. I enjoy her classes and learn so much! Keep inspiring, Z." --Gracy Dsouza, Skillshare student
"The book is organized into clear, step-by-step instructions and you'll simply love the color combinations. You start understanding the skies immediately and may find yourself watching the sunset with a whole new mindset."--GeekDad
"An ideal and effective DIY introduction to painting with watercolors."--Midwest Book Review
