A. C. Hollowell Jr.: Good book for beginners she taught me a lot a lot about mixing color. And different painting styles recommend it to anyone starting out

Michelle S.: I love watching Mako on her YouTube channel, and this book is like having her there with you. The step-by-step instructions and excellent photos break down the watercolor project so you know exactly what to do, no guessing from written instructions only! I've been watercoloring for years and I am learning from this book, so it is truly for everyone who enjoys watercoloring.

FW: I bought this for a friend in her 80s who wanted to start painting in water colours and she told me that this book was just what she needed, and has found it very helpful.

MJZ: I only recently found Mako on YouTube and found her videos really helpful. I was so pleased when I discovered she had a book and I purchased it right away. I am not disappointed! This book is everything I have been looking for. I've done a little watercolour in the past but this book offers so many great exercises and projects that I feel anyone will improve their skills by following along. Starting out with basic techniques helps to build confidence for starting the projects. Not only is it useful, but it's also beautiful. I found it very inspiring and have enjoyed working with it.

Marnie: As a beginner I was getting frustrated and not really enjoying painting before getting this book. This book is a game changer - I am enjoying painting and improving. The tutorials are short, fun and easy to do. Thanks Mako! 😊

Graça Cardoso: The book is very good, really useful. It has detailed explanations on Watercolour techniques and useful and beautiful projects detailed step by step.

ChocoChoco: Quel dommage qu'il ne soit pas traduit en français !

Meilleur livre d'aquarelle pour débuter (et j'en ai acheté un paquet) si vous en avez marre des fleurs, et que vous souhaitez être guidé pas à pas sur des projets simples et gratifiants dont les thèmes sont plutôt les paysages (la mer, la montagne, la forêt, la plage, la galaxie, la lune...)
Il est simple, efficace, et va à l'essentiel avec une jolie présentation épurée et sobre (pas quinze photos de l'auteur, ni de son atelier, ni de matériel)

Il y a 26 projets de trois niveaux différents :
9 pour débutant
10 pour intermédiaire
7 pour avancé
Certains projets sont proposés en plusieurs versions et différentes couleurs, donc ça fait vraiment de quoi s'entraîner beaucoup. Je trouve cette idée très sympa.

Au fil des projets, en suivant la progression de difficulté, on aborde différente techniques.

C'est un livre vraiment encourageant, qui incite à peindre, à essayer, à recommencer (grâce aux différentes versions colorées, on n'a pas l'impression de refaire le même projet)

Sonja: Die erste Bilder schauen Hammer aus. No-Fail Watercolor mit viele Videos auch online. Top!

Annie: Everything in this book feels authentic, filled with love, and it's like Mako's voice speaks through these pages. You can tell that she is very adept and knowledgeable in the realm of watercolor which shows from her hard work in creating this book. Her explanations make it cordial to the beginner and to the advanced, that I think one may feel encouraged from her confidence. This is noticeable from the foundation of watercolor painting (techniques, mixing, theory, etc.). Note that the supplies section has no photos, but not necessary as later sections provide photos that complement her explanations--this section is pretty general, though her YouTube videos cover these topics in-depth.

The layout of the book is organized and fresh, that it feels inspiring to learn from this book. The manner that the subtopic of watercolor occurs makes sense logically to how one would approach watercolor painting. Thus, I think this watercolor book appears like other watercolor books but it is the content in this book that feels like Mako put a lot of her knowledge into this, and knows how to guide the beginner to the right path.

Often times with some watercolor books, I feel like many...
