The Artists' Choice Art Instruction Book of the Year!
Discover the techniques of painting beautiful, lifelike flowes with this comprehensive, accessible guide. Packed with step-by-step sequences, stunning illustrations and handy tips, this is a highly visual, inspirational guide to painting watercolour flowers. It will encourage the experienced artist to experiment and beginners to pick up a brush.
The author starts with basic equipment and materials alongside essential hints on choosing what to paint, keeping plants fresh, setting up and holding the brush. Key techniques are highlighted throughout, including wet-in-wet, wet-on-dry, softening, mixing colours and using masking fluid. A variety of painting styles is demonstrated, from a first quick impression of poppies to a detailed botanical study of hellebores. Paintings range from white orchids in a tropical greenhouse and freshly picked bluebells in a vase, to a rambling, pink dog rose.
Siriol Sherlock's flower paintings have been widely exhibited in the UK and she now works full-time as a painter and teacher. She is President of the Society of Floral Painters and a member of the Society of Botanical Artists.
