Creative Workshop - Watercolor & Acrylic: Challenge your artistic boundaries with 25 fun painting exercises

Still great projects to try

This book comes complete with a DVD!! So much to learn in this book and it explains everything in detail with colorful pictures for examples as well! I love it and I know it will be used regularly from my library of Art books (that's a lot)! Thank you very much! I bought this book new so am not sure if the DVD will come with a used book! Usually doesn't because someone always takes those DVD's from the book! :(

Teachers teach, create interest and excitement in their field all the while sneaking in the facts in this case , design. Mark Mehaffey is a teacher. I missed this book the first time around and am glad to have a second chance and a short DVD also. This is not a step by step book on, how to paint like me, book but instead it has opened doors in my imagination with different materials and styles

This book (Creative Workshop - Watercolor & Acrylic) is a duplicate of the contents of Creative Watercolor Workshop. The only differences are in the titling (new name), different cover art, binding (Creative Watercolor Workshop is a spiral bound hard cover while this a bound paperback), and the addition of a yupo DVD. Guts of the book are identical between the two.Mehaffey is a good read on its own merits. If you own either, you definitely do not need to purchase the other.So now I own two of the same thing - waste of money. I deplore this practice (and so the one star) of not clearly identifying an essential reprint and instead obfuscating with the use of new packaging.

The title clearly states watercolor and acrylic, yet the contents focus 97% on watercolor, which is not my media of choice. And the 3% of acrylic was only about how to use acrylic with a watercolor painting. If you are an acrylic painter, avoid this like the plague. If you want to see some creative uses of acrylics, you won't see much. Blink and you've missed it. There are much better books out there.

Love this book..full of great ideas and plenty to spur the imagination.

Très bon livre.Dommage qu’il soit tout en anglais.
