  Clear, concise and easy to understand.
Review created: 24/11/09

This was a clear, concise, but informative introduction to the world of watercolour painting. The presenter apart from being a talented painter himself, presented the subject in an easy to understand style that doesn't lose in viewer in over complicated jargon. The methodology was broken down into clear steps and was both entertaining and informative.

The only negative was that I wish the dvd had been a two hour presentation as I was totally engrossed by the subject.

If you are starting out, this is certainly a good dvd to consider. It's not expensive either.

  Watercolour Painting Made Easy
Review created: 02/11/09

A truly inspirational dvd with a very easy to follow format.
Granville Clark covers all of the basics, from which paper and brushes to chose, to the effects and colours made from mixing paints. There is also a section on creating a paining using only one colour. He made me want to pick up a brush and start painting straight away... so I did!
The dvd menu makes each chapter easy to follow and to replay should you need to. Each section is clearly labeled in the menu and is easy to find and the small, bite sized sections are easy to take on board. It also means that you don't have to totally replay the whole dvd to find the bit you want.
Overall, I'm very happy that I was lucky enough to find such a good dvd on my first attempt. I can highly recommend it.

  Inspirational and Clear Tutorial
Review created: 06/09/09

Having tackled oil painting, I decided to turn my attention to watercolour. I bought a tutorial to help me with the clear differences, since finding a tutor is way too expensive.

Granville "Danny" Clarke is your teacher and if we stick with the painting, I would say this is one of the best DVD tutorials on the market. I covers which equipment and materials to use; how to tackle an outdoors sketch (he looks a bit like a Dr Who blown away by the elements in this segment); how to traspose the sketch into a real working painting; how to build up washes to make a picture; and more.

However, its not a DVD that played on my DVD player very easily: it keeps stops and starting for each segment and appears to have no overall cohesion. Finally, Danny hismelf has composed the music and the song between segments, and this should have been given over to a professional musician. Dire is one word for it.

So, a really excellent painting course, but the DVD misses the accolade of "Excellent" by Danny's horrible music.
