Thank you for your recommendations. I recently purchased Kate Rebecca Leach book Creative Abstract Watercolor and Creative Abstract Mixed Media through your Amazon site and I love love them both! I also have ordered her new book that comes out in October. She has so many great creative ideas. I will also look into a couple others you have recommended.

I have learned a lot from your videos as well. I like that you experiment with your mixed art supplies and let us experience it with you … the good or not so good!lol Learning about the different art supplies and techniques has been very inspiring for me to explore and expand my own creativity.

I hope one day you too will consider doing a book of your own!❤

Love it! Thank you. My faves are the abstract book, calm, and the nature one at the end.

Great review...came away with so much good info for making decisions about a next book purchase. Especially helpful to see how artists we love (YOU!), explore and build skills. Thank you, Denise! 🙏❤

I also bought and started working through Abstract Watercolor, what a fantastic book! I've done 5 exercises so far and learned a lot. Thank you for mentioning not to sell these. I do a bit of replicating to learn, but don't sell my art and could never sell someone else's design. I have seen people do this and it upsets me.

That abstract water color book is my current fav atm. It’s so easy to follow along

I love the reviews but no more books for me until I use the ones I have. I’m great on buying; poor at using. I do love the Creative Girl book. Whimsy is right up my alley. Thank you, Denise! A big ol’ hug for you.🤗:_flowertrio:

I was so inspired by your pieces where you were going through the Creative Abstract Watercolor book, I just had to buy it. Best thing ever! I’m working my way through it and learning so much. Just as you said. And I see another couple that will go on my birthday wishlist this year! Once again, Denise, I love you dearly but you are soooooo bad for my budget! Lol

I love the creative girl whimsical book, that’s my style of art.

I love the watercolor in the forest book, I did do a few of the projects,but I traced the image and did it in an art journal.
