Take Three Colours: Watercolour Lakes & Rivers - Stephen Coates - Take Three Colours

From Search Press, Take Three Colours: Watercolour Lakes & Rivers by Stephen Coates is a paperback guide designed to help absolute beginners paint lakes and river scenes in watercolour with a deliberately simple set-up. Coates, a professional watercolour teacher and artist, demonstrates how to work with three brushes, three colours, a plastic palette and a watercolour pad, keeping the focus on practical painting rather than colour theory or lengthy mixing guidance.

Across 9 projects, the course builds skills progressively, starting with the simplest scenes and moving towards a more challenging final picture. Step-by-step photographs accompany each painting, supported by clear instruction, advice, tips and jargon busters. Finished artworks are shown at full size for easy reference, and can be traced for a more relaxed painting experience.
