Review of OIl Painting Harmony

Here is a review that I just received from a fellow artist and teacher which I wanted to share with you! And these are images from two pages in the book.  Here is the link to download the iBooks app that you need on your computer before you can search for my books. I also have PDFs of the books which can be read on any computer.

"Joyce Washor's IBook, "Oil Painting Harmony: The Tao of theComplementary Palette" is one of the most beautiful books I've seen. Ihave never experienced what technology can do for the arts in the wayI did in Ms. Washor's IBook. Her paintings are stunning and the videos
compliment perfectly what she teaches in her book. I teach elective painting to high school students and my theories about color are exactly the same as what Ms. Washor shows in her book. I am so excited that I will be able to show her IBook and videos to my students when I
bring my IPad to school. I highly recommend that everyone purchase it to be inspired and to be revitalized in the love and joy of painting.
BRAVO!! Congratulations and thank you, Joyce, for publishing this
iBook, which is good for my heart and soul in more ways than one."

Neutral Study

Here's a painting that's in Watercolor Harmony (both the iBook and the PDF file).
Also, I just realized how inexpensive it is to mail DVDs to Europe and South America. (Is it me or is the U.S. Post Office totally confusing?) Anyway, I just sent one to the U.K. and it was only $5.50.
It's about the same to France and Germany. And to Buenos Aires it's $6.00. There's no tracking at this price, but so far I haven't had a problem. Next time I go, I will find out how much to Moscow!

PDF printed out!

Linda T. sent me some photos that she took of printed book that she made. She said she keeps it under wraps in clear plastic so she doesn't get it messed up with paint! Thanks for sending the photos, Linda so I could share them with everyone in case anyone else has wondered about making a book from the PDF file.

Oil Book

I'm pretty sure I'm going to use this image for my new book cover. And I hope everyone voted today in the U.S.

Response from Russia!

I just received this in an email and want to share it with you. Dariya had two iPads in her family but couldn't download Watercolor Harmony because Apple doesn't have a bookstore open with Russia yet. So I made the PDF file for her and for people who don't have any readers. Responses like hers make all the work worthwhile. Here is what she said:

" I read a lot of books about aquarelle. All of them, both expensive and not so expensive gave me no clarity about how to work with paints, to choose paint for specific works. I thought the aquarelle technic is a secret knowlage and professionals don't want to share it. Some time ago I found Joyce's blog and saw her book advertisement. As I think that Joyce's works are amazing of couse I wanted to know how to approach a little to these masterpieces. The book answers my basic questions and gave me a confidence that I'll achieve good results. Reading the book and asking 'how' I've got the answer on the next page. I really sure that the author sincerely wants to share her knowlage and do it in understandable way. Between the lines I can read "You can and you'll do. Don't be afraid and try", this is the one of main principles of teaching.So even I've already read the book I open it again and again, look, think and train of couse :)"

If anyone has any questions that they have from reading the book, please feel free to ask them in the comments section or send me an email and I can repost it so everyone can read it!
