Hazel Soan’s African Watercolours is a richly illustrated instructional art book in which artist Hazel Soan explores southern Africa through her paintbrush. The book acts as both a travelogue and a workshop guide: Soan journeys across South Africa, Namibia, Botswana, and Zimbabwe, capturing landscapes, wildlife, and light in watercolour. Alongside her vivid paintings, she explains techniques, color choices, composition, and how to paint such varied subjects in challenging environments. It's aimed at more practiced painters seeking to bring an African aesthetic and sensitivity to their work.
