Another beautiful and useful volume from the Walter-Foster series that introduces to floral painting in oil and acrylic. Tools and techniques, elementary color theory, working from photos or sketches, and some step by step tutorials featuring orchids, sunflowers and more. Gorgeous artwork, simple steps, lovely layout, very inspiring.

Beautiful big bold colourful flower projects aimed at beginners. The effects are stunning yet the projects can be completed in a relatively short space of time. There is enough steps and information for beginner/intermediate artist to have a go at. Different effects and methods are explored in each project and there is plenty of foundation information regarding tools and techniques provided at the beginning of the book. A good starting course in a short step by step book.
