Reviews
A
This book brings together several books previously published by Search Press by four popular tutors, Wendy Tait, Jackie Barrass, Richard
Bolton and Ann Mortimer. The book is divided into five main sections: wild flowers in watercolour, and watercolour flower portraits both
by Wendy Tait; light in flower painting by Jackie Barrass; creative techniques for flowers by Richard Bolton; and flowers in the landscape T
by Ann Mortimer. Each section clearly describes how the author sets about his or her particular subject. There is information on the
basics, including materials, techniques, how to stretch paper, use masking fluid, and plan your painting, as well as the treatment of
backgrounds, using negative spaces, step-by-step demonstrations and troubleshooting advice. These compilation books are good value I
for money, allowing you to learn from more than one expert, all painting in different styles, and the content is concentrated so that it O
really focuses on the subject in hand.
