The first in a series of seasonal watercoloring books based on artist Kristy Rice's cutting gardens, this book celebrates spring's profuse blossoms such as peonies, magnolias, pansies, and Eastern bluestar. Her easy-to-learn, joy-driven approach includes simple tutorials on how to
use watercolor and where to find affordable materials. A stationery-industry tastemaker, Kristy believes that making art, regardless of skill level, has the
power to reconnect us to each other and ourselves. Touching brush to
paper with water and color releases an inexplicable calm that so many of
us long for, and making art, even in short bursts, brings us back to
ourselves by slowing time.With 25 detailed, yet whimsical illustrations, artists are invited to continue the journey begun in her first watercoloring book series, Painterly Days.
