Flowers: Pick Up a Brush and Paint Your First Picture This Weekend

This book teaches complete beginners how to paint a beautiful floral watercolour in just one weekend by practicing the technique exercises on Saturday, then following them through to paint a picture on Sunday. It starts by introducing materials, then leads readers through a series of exercises designed to provide a basic grounding for the subject. It features six weekend projects for painting a range of popular floral subjects: a single flower; and indoor still life; an outdoor close-up; and wild flowers in the landscape. Clear instructions accompany step-by-step photographs throughout, and technical information is given in special feature boxes.
