Product Description
In fifteen step-by-step demos, Donna Dewberry brings her distinctive style and easy painting techniques to landscape painting and makes it fun and creative.Readers will see that you don't have to be a serious painter to create lovely landscapes, that you can relax and enjoy the process without getting bogged down in theory or spending time mastering technical skills. The author shows step by step how to paint a complete scenic landscape on canvas in less than an hour using a sponge to wash on large areas of sky and ground, and double-loaded brushes and palette knives to paint trees, foliage and flowers. Readers will also learn how to paint landscapes across two, three and four side-by-side canvases to create their own colourful wall art that is easy to display and needs no framing.

I am amazed by Donna's one-stroke painting technique. As a beginner, this book shows me a simple way to do landscape painting. But of course you need lots of practice. The paintings inside are so beautiful. The steps are easy to follow. Donna gives me the confident that you don't have to be an artist to paint.

This book assumes that you have already used her other books (flowers etc) and gained instruction that way on the brushes and how to do the brush strokes. It gives a couple of quick how to pages that shows 2/3 basic pictures on each stroke, but no in-depth instruction. The projects involve quick fairly undetailed painting, ie using a sponge to do the background then one stroke procedure to finish. Ok for people who like to paint quick landscapes with no real detail involved.

Not your typical Donna Dewberry instruction book
4 Mar 2008
Format:Paperback
Don't get me wrong, this is an excellent book to teach you simple landscapes. I had to dock it one star due to the fact that there are no worksheets provided in this book to practice with, as can be found in her other books, nor are the instructions layed out, literally, step by step. The upside is that the illustrations are vibrant and color matched so that you can follow along easy enough to understand when and where to place color.
You won't be disappointed with this book if you are Donna Dewberry fan. This book represents a new and exciting change over her traditional one stroke method. Have fun decorating your home with your new paintings!

disappointed...

Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
donna dewberry should stick with flowers!!! i think her landscapes are pretty awful in comparison to her flower paintings. there are some good tips on acrylic painting with sponges (although i think terrence tse's books MUCH surpass donna dewberry in this category), but to be honest, i only bought this book for the painting on multiple canvas information...good information but i could have gotten that somewhere else. there are much better books out there on acrylic landscape painting. if you are hooked on the donna dewberry techniques and her beautiful flower paintings, you might be disappointed here.

AWESOME!!

Format:Paperback
I am a NEW painter, I attended 5 Donna Dewberry classes at the local High School. Once the classes ended I knew I had to find a way to continue painting. I ordered two Donna Dewberry books from Amazon. I received this book on a Friday. I was so excited when I received it that I immediately grabbed a canvas, brushes and paints and painted the Sunset Silhouette. The painting is awesome and the step by step in the book are fantastic. I recommend this book to everyone.
