Product Description

Synopsis
From azalea to zantedeschia, this unique watercolour artist's guide offers easy-to-follow, plant-specific information on how to paint, in a crisp and natural style, over 50 of the most popular species of flowers. It includes step-by-step photographs, details, and instructions on capturing the individual essence of the flower, together with comprehensive information on the appropriate techniques and colour mixes to use. Glorious full-colour photographs of the finished watercolour show the depth and variety of the plant portraits, from the exquisitely executed passion flower to the bold luminosity of the oriental poppy. This book teaches the essential skills of creating realistic structure and form by close observation of the pattern of light and shade on petals and foliage. Watercolour is the most popular medium and flowers are amongst the most popular painting subjects. Techniques and colour mixes are simply explained using over 400 illustrations and over 50 flowers are featured.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent for beginners and more experienced artists, 5 April 2009
By N. Newton (Oxford, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I've bought a number of 'Teach yourself' watercolour books, but this one managed to teach me the basics of watercolour and flower painting all at the same time. The pictures are so clear that I traced them,transferred them to watercolour paper and then followed the step by step painting guide for each flower. Even the first attempt looked amazing (you can't go too wrong, it is so clear). Seriously the best in my collection - be warned though - you'll be wanting to go and buy all the artist watercolour paints named in the book before long!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Exellent Tuition, 8 April 2009
By hmac "hmac" (Canterbury, Kent United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This book is a very good introduction to flower painting with a wealth of information that gives valuable instruction to intermediate students and the more advanced. It is beautifully illustrated and a joy to look at. The instructions are clear and easy to follow. I have several books on how to paint flowers but keep coming back to this one over and over again.
