1: Not a primary resource
Even after I read the dimensions regarding this little book, I was still surprised at how small it is. Because it's titled the Watercolor Flower Artist's Bible, I expected more information on painting watercolor flowers. It's a spiral bound book divided into color sections which shows a list of small watercolor examples of the most common flowers. There are also some nice examples of other watercolor artists work. I want to reiterate that the book is very small, which means that the pictures are small. This book could really just be used a pocket or travel guide to use for a particular flower's general shape or color but not one to study specific features of any flower.

2: Lots of flowers
This is a handy little spiral bound book. The first 45 pages go into the usual watercolor materials/techniques, but that is followed by a short section called "studying flower shapes" which shows you how to draw the flowers based on their shapes. Then the rest of the book is dedicated to painting more than 100 different flowers, arranged by color, demonstrated in 3-4 steps. Basically short and to the point with a few pages of beautiful paintings by artists thrown in for inspiration. Very nice for an on-the-go flower painter.
