Query: Disappointed!

I read all the excellent reviews and thought this might be good since I am interested in learning to paint using water soluble oils. I just received it and find it to be a disappointment. Mainly because I thought most of the exercises gave you an end result of a very amateurish painting (i.e. page 83, Barn With a Purple Shadow). I don't want to paint like that. I will still read through it in hopes of gleaning something valuable before I recycle it.
