The book is inspiring for the student, but also a joy to behold. Light springs from the pages. Shadows lure the eye. The teacher-author, Skip Lawrence, is a gift to old students and new. And in case you’re wondering, the lessons are just as moving whether tour medium is watercolor or, as for me, oils. Celebrate the vision!

Ive been painting watercolors for 25 years+ and I find this is a great book to help you get those creative juices flowing. But you need to sit with a hi-liter and pencil and study it. Design and values are so important. I dont paint anything like him. Im a portrait painter, but I learn so much from this book everytime I pick it up.
I am taking a class on painting light and we were referring to Skip Lawrence. The teacher was so impressed when I showed up with his out of print book!
