Watercolor Tricks & Techniques book giveaway!
Last month I found this book at such a great price, I picked up an extra to share with one of you!
Leave a comment below before midnight EST Thursday, June 12th, for a chance to win - I'll announce the winner Friday morning in my Mix-Ability post!
This 160-page spiral-bound easel book is packed with tips and tricks, techniques, and lessons for the beginner up to advanced painters. Watercoloring is so much fun and is one skill I've really pushed myself in over the last year or so. I still have so much to learn, and I look forward to learning from this book when I have the time to sit and absorb.
Good luck to you! I'll be back Wednesday with a card to share!
So awesome of you to share....I'm still learning..and it ain't easy for me. Maybe this book will help...

I would love to have this book.
ReplyDeleteThank you for all that you so generously share - I found your pencil investigations so in line with my own questions when I first began using pencils but had very limited supplies. I've been looking at watercolours & acrylics more recently & have decided that I much prefer watercolours but I have so much to learn & pracise when it comes to not only techniques but different types of papers. Thank you for an opportunity to win some help.

Dina, I would love this book! My head is in my hands when it comes to watercoloring. I just cannot get it to look "right". Maybe that is the problem!
ReplyDeleteWow Dina,
ReplyDeleteDo kind of you to share. I'm learning watercolor and i have to say that i love the fact the watercolor teaches you to stay still and listen to the paint, wait, wait, do another layer. So far i love it but i have lots to learn. Thank you for the awesome chance to win this book.
How I would love to have this book. Watercolor is my favorite medium.
ReplyDeleteI am so hopeless at colouring so I desperately need this beautiful prize to see if I can master the art.. thanks for the chance to win.. GL everyone.. Hanny Australia
ReplyDeleteOh Dini, thank you so much for your generosity with the book give away, I'm sure it will be loved by whoever wins!! I love your blog, love to try my hand at watercoloring, and need lots of help to improve my technique. The effects of this medium are what appeal to me. There is a delicacy about the transparent look to it. And the "puddling" look of the colors from one color to another just looks so beautiful to me. There is such a fragile look from shade to shade to me. In other mediums we shade and blend to have no lines, yet in watercoloring, that water line look is what I love about it! Is that crazy or what?????
ReplyDeleteAs much as I love my Copic markers and pencils, I must say the beauty of watercolors just knocks my socks off!!!!!
Thank you again for the chance to win........ :)
Thank you for the chance to win this book. I'm so excited about the prize.
ReplyDeleteDina, this looks like a wonderful book. I haven't played with watercolors regularly for quite a while. I registered for the Online Card Making class "Watercolor for Card Makers" and enjoyed trying out some of the techniques they showed. I need to get my fingers inky more often.
ReplyDeleteThank you for this wonderful giveaway opportunity.
ReplyDeleteI would love to win this, as I have never ever done watercoloring but would like to start. I need all the help I can get and winning this book sure would be a Big help.
Thank you

How awesome! Ty for thinking of us! Watercolor has become one of my favorite mediums. Book notwithstanding, I find I have to put in practice every to every other day. Seriously. Same thing with copics or pencils-anything worth doing comes with a ton of practice!! Thanks for the offer AND the support that you-along with everyone at SCS-give so freely. It's that, along with tips and tricks y'all share, that encourages me to try things I would've never thought to try!!
ReplyDeleteHow very thoughtful of you. I would love to win this book. All your posts are so inspiring and I'm learning lots about coloring and I know this book would help. Thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDeleteGreat book, Dina! I'd love to play with some of the techniques it includes...
ReplyDeleteDiane
I can only hope to be near as good as you. Thank you for all the lessons, tips, etc.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance to win a copy of this watercolor book. Since watercoloring is all the rage right now with card makers, I'd love to learn how to do it correctly and I'm sure this book would be a great help. Thanks so much!!!!! I always enjoy seeing your painting and coloring on your cards and wish I could do work that looked half as good.
ReplyDeleteLove watercolors and would love to have this book. Thanks so much for your generosity and beautiful inspiration.
ReplyDeleteThanks a bunch for giving us the opportunity to win this book. I am a real beginner with watercolor. Winning this book would help me a lot.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance to win this wonderful book. I'm sure I'd learn a lot from using it. Edna Burgess
ReplyDeleteHave always wanted to learn more to have the confidence to try more! Would lovwe to win this book, especially knowing I'd have your lovely examples to follow! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteDina, you are so thoughtful and kind!!! I would love to learn to watercolor. I remember watercoloring as a kid...I think I was in 8th grade. I've seen so many wonderful projects using this technique, but haven't taken the plunge on trying it myself. Thank you for the chance at winning the book...I can definitely use all the tips and tricks I can get. :)
ReplyDeleteI love water coloring and any help is appreciated!
ReplyDeleteWOW!!!This is Awesome,thank you,love to have this book!!!
ReplyDeleteDina, this will be a wonderful book for someone. I find such joy in watercolor. This will give some lucky person a lot of encouragement.
ReplyDeleteA good bargain is hard to pass up isn't it? And for you to think to share it here is awesome. I can't think that you have so much to learn about watercolor, but now me. I have much to learn. I would love to have a good book to help me along. Just looking at watercolors others have done and trying to do what they did has helped some. And I guess just practicing it more helps as much as anything. That's what I've been trying to do for a while now.
ReplyDeleteWhat a find! Would love to apply watercolor into more of my work. Fingers crossed.
ReplyDeleteLooks cool. I am such an amateur
ReplyDeleteI would gift this book to my sister, who is taking up painting and drawing after discovering she has a natural talent for it. Thanks so much for a chance to win.
ReplyDeleteWow this looks like a great resource to have on hand. Would love to own it.
ReplyDeleteHi Dina
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful opportunity for some lucky person & thank you for sharing
Cheers
