Question: Is there one particular book that gives good step-by-step instructions for watercolors?
No, not really. Most books aren't showing you how to do worthwhile pictures. I just find a picture or concept that I find interesting.
Question: How do you capture light in your paintings?
I work really lightly. I keep a shop rag next to me and always soak up the extra paint as it sits on the paper.
Question: Do you think that gives you control of the color.
Yes, it means I have more control of the medium.
Question: Do you paint with watercolors very often?
No, I prefer other types of paints more than watercolors.
Question: What is your biggest piece of advice for working with watercolors?
Slowly add color by wiping away most of your paint and building it from there. Don't work so fast that you loose control of the medium.
