Love her books! I’ve actually been taking her online classes for the last two year and love them! Billy uploads every two weeks and I also bought two sets her brushes and they are the best brushes and love them! Also if you sign up with her classes you get the whole back catalogue of classes. Her last upload was on Sunday and it was actually of the same rose in the cover of her book just from a different angle.

Oh and it’s under $20usd a month to subscribe to her online videos.

Oh that's great, thank you for letting me know! That rose is stunning and I don't recall seeing it in the book, so watching her tutorial would be fantastic! I heard about the brushes too :)

Billy is the queen of botanical watercolor! This book is like bible of her secrets. LOL! If you ever have a chance to get M Graham paints, you won't regret buying them. I chose them because my local art store has them cheaper than any online retailer. The color selection is more limited but you can mix almost any shade under the sun. I bought a cheap Prima watercolor half pan set of 12 for the metal box, thinking it would be perfect for a travel box. Hey, it was $15 USD but the paints are surprising vivid in color. Now, I think I'll have to buy another to make my M Graham travel set. LOL! Have a great day! I love all of your videos. Sara

Yes it's a bit of a dream of mine to try M Graham at some point, just can't get them over here or they are a fortune, which already I feel guilty enough to have purchased a few tubes of QoR, which are amazing but somehow £16 for 11ml is just too much... :))

Thanks for another lovely review xx

[@ColleenM61]

Thank you! I have tried to purchase this several times then I find other paints or art supplies and I put it back in my wish list....well now I know I have to get it! Love this!

[@AlyonasWatercolourCreations]

I had this book stuck in my Amazon shopping cart for weeks before I finally got it and was really happy I did :)

[@ColleenM61]

Thanks, that's just the push I needed. I really do love everything about her work.

[@georgedickens9737]

its a great book, she demonstrates various techniques, so its good for practicing

[@Blissfulthings]

I have this book on my wish list, I got lucky and I purchased the 98 wooden box set of sennlier watercolours, it was on sale at Jackson's...so all I had to do to set up her pallet was to open the big box of watercolours and pick out the ones she uses! I love sennlier watercolours they layer so beautifully Have a creative weekend! Heather

[@AlyonasWatercolourCreations]

Oh my that is a nice treat, 98 colours in the wooden box! :) I am currently experimenting with that Sennelier Botanical Watercolour Set, it feels quite different to the Schmincke Horadam and White Nights and Daniel Smith... I think I am starting to understand what it is... :)

[@Blissfulthings]

They layer so beautifully and create depth to your paintings when you use the glazing technique, they are wonderful pigments 💐

[@AlyonasWatercolourCreations]

I was going to ask my hubby to get me the A-Z flower book as well but I think I'll wait till next year and meanwhile enjoy these two that I have :) have a great day/evening too! :)

[@crystalinedreams6039]

[@nlorens]
