Art books

I've used this book for a recent video, picked a theme, went with it, and ended up with a beautiful and cohesive watercolor, with the spring vibes I was looking for. It really helps in planning for a painting, however, it's better if you're already able to mix the colors you see in the book as it won't teach you how. This type of knowledge (color mixing), will come with practice. After a while, you will get a sixth sense for guessing what colors to mix in order to get a specific shade. This book is mainly a guide to choosing a harmonious palette and help set the mood you choose.

Not an art book. However, it's coming in handy to me when I paint according to the seasons. It's a valuable asset to my practice, but it's mostly for business.
