Discover fresh, forgiving techniques that promise less frustration and juicier results! Julie Gilbert Pollard subscribes to the "whatever works" school of painting. Not bound by tradition, she shows you how to unleash your watercolors for exciting and expressive results...and have lots of fun doing it! See how a few simple steps at the beginning can preserve the lights, lock in the darks, and allow you greater freedom to let your watercolor do what it does best: move and flow wet-into-wet, creating luminous layers of depth and vitality. Inside you'll find: • 9 step-by-step painting demonstrations, plus many more quick lessons illustrating basic techniques. • How to paint water, rocks, trees and other landscape elements in a lively manner. • Easy techniques for making your paintings pop, including tips for successful spattering. • How to combine a representational painting style with abstract acrylic underpaintings for unique and lively results. This book is all about painting boldly, embracing the medium's unpredictable nature, and achieving a loose, painterly quality. It's ideal for the beginner trying to get off on the right foot, as well as the intermediate artist looking for ways to "freshen up" their approach.

Unleashed is a visual anthology of works by Catherine Eaton Skinner, portraying her passion not only for the animals of this world, but her relationship among them. Whether painting the human figure, various animal forms, or the changing landscape, each of her works represents a unique pilgrimage of mind and spirit connecting with the journeys of those who witness her work. Catherine Eaton Skinner has lived and worked in the Northwest most of her life. She divides her time between Seattle and Santa Fe, New Mexico. She returned to painting full time in 1990, after a career in marine wildlife and natural habitat illustration. "All animals are a part of man's collective subconscious mind and cultural memory. Their imagery and symbolism pervades our ancient myths, scriptures and oral traditions. . . . If you are chosen by a 'power animal', you guard and honor him or her. In showing respect, humility and thankfulness, the animal becomes your teacher, your protector. Each animal offers certain gifts and innate knowledge for us. They have much to teach humanity. Their wisdom may empower, protect, inspire, and heal us. If we listen, we may survive together on this earth." - Catherine Eaton Skinner "So well does the artist Catherine Eaton Skinner distill what she sees in nature that a look into the faces of her painted animals immediately conveys an intimacy with the subject's spirited vitality. Her animal portraits are like fine poems that have eliminated the superfluous to leave the truest essence of her subject." - Tony Angell, Northwest artist, naturalist, and educator "Catherine Eaton Skinner's beautiful art engages the viewer - encouraging a thoughtful dialogue about the connections and relationships between people and animals. These prints, which are based on Skinner's full-sized works of art, take adults and children directly into the animals through their eyes. It is a priceless connection." - Deborah B. Jensen, president & CEO, Woodland Park Zoo
