Quick and Easy Murals
1 Oct 2004
Format:Paperback
A great book for those who want to start painting on the walls. While if doesn't show a beginner color worksheets on every element it is great for the intermediate to advanced beginner. There are hundreds of step-by-step photos. The projects that take the most painting skill are the borders. Donna shows you how to paint six wall borders using photos showing step by steps. The four wall murals give a great effect and are truly quick and easy. And then she shows two wall treatments that will show you that you never need to use wall paper again. It is so much easier to repaint than to strip wallpaper. For the more advanced or highly motivated painter Donna has included a section on starting you own Mural business. This book shows you can be a do it yourself muralist.

I first borrowed this book from local library. When i had borrowed it ten times i thought i had best buy myself a copy. so glad to find it at Amazon and to have it delivered so quickly even though i am in Australia. As a folk artist of 20 years i was very happy with the instructions but a new comer might find the instructions a little light on. But her ideas are wonderful and a great inspiration to copy or to adapt for your own ideas. Jessie
