I love color and Jean Haines has another beautiful book emphasizing color and how it can affect your emotions. It is very much like Paint Yourself Calm - but different colors, different mood. I would have liked to see more demonstration of technique than this book offers and that's why I gave it 4 stars instead of the 5 I would normally give to a Jean Haines presentation. There is quite a bit of "self-help" talk here - and less on the painting techniques. That being said it is BEAUTIFUL to look through - grabbing bits of the "positive" thoughts. I've been working through it for a week or so and overall, it DOES lift my spirits just enjoying the pages!! And it did encourage me to invest in some Cad Yellow Deep watercolor! *-))

" What we learn from art we can use to improve our lives. Imagine learning.....to put any negative experiences in life behind us by not repeating them. Imagine loving something so much that you know you will enjoy it if you do it again, in life and in art."

Haines' watercolors are gorgeous. The thoughts she shares on color and mind set are so uplifting. I felt like I was walking through an art gallery with a kind mentor.
