About the Author
Terry Harrison became interested in art early on, attending Art School at the age of sixteen. His studies led to a career in graphics, then he became an illustrator, developing his own painting style and perfecting his techniques during evenings and weekends. Demand grew for his paintings and he soon gave up his 'day job' to paint full time. Now he is kept constantly busy with a full schedule of exhibitions, private commissions, demonstrations and painting holidays. His fine art prints are sold in shops and galleries everywhere and he has recently opened a successful art gallery where he displays and sells his paintings. Terry is an energetic and prolific painter and his regular rebookings for demonstrations reflect an enthusiastic response to his educational and entertaining style.

Watercolour trees -made easy
This is a superb book for the beginner. Terry takes you through equipment, paper and paints in a clear manner, with colour photographs throughout.

The instruction on painting is done in clear easy steps, again photographed at each stage. I am a complete novice and have been able to produce excellent results.

I enjoyed the book so much I have booked to go on one of Terry's all-day courses.

Good, but....
Good book, part of a series by Terry Harrison, but based on HIS special brushes and HIS paint mixes. Presumably one can replicate the techniques with a standard set of brushes and paints, but the easiest way (but probably not the cheapest) is to rush out and buy his set of brushes and paints. I managed to find 4 books bundled at a bargain price, but wouldn't have been too happy to buy at full price then find out I could be spending even more on extra brushes
