My rating: 2 of 5 stars

Better suited for someone with time they are looking to fill. Also who lives in a warm climate since many of the prompts suggest going outside with art supplies while clearly not anticipating everything being covered in snow and temperatures below freezing for weeks.

What turned me off was that right at the beginning she suggests treating the pages with clear gesso before painting or using ink/markers on them because the paper isn't thick enough to prevent bleed through. Who has time for that?

The prompts themselves are fine for getting into a sketch/quick painting habit and developing some basic skills.
