bought this as first book on decorative painting becoz it is not too overwhelming. designs and brushstrokes taught are simply and easy to do, perfect for a beginner.one of the features i like is that there are step by step paintings shown to see how the drawings are done. with arrows to indicate the directions of the brushstrokes. drawings look as if they are painted directly on the book and are not like photographs taken from a distance which makes viewing much easier. but if you are looking for detailed information on types of paints, mixing etc then this is not the book for you.

it is first book tat i bought on this topic as it did not overwhelm me as other books that i saw on the shelf. As i think it is supposed to be easy guide, it does not have alot of information on type of brushes to use, paints and brush techniques. however, the designs are simple and quick to do and appealing for me. one of the best feature is that it gives you step by step paintings of how the flower is drawn and it shows arrows to indicate the directions of the brush strokes. The pictures are also shown close enough like it is painted on the pages of the book. i think that's how you are supposed to learn from the book however, if you are looking for things like brush techniques or more detailed information / instructions, this may not be the book for you. give it 3 stars becoz i feel it cld have been slightly more descriptive in instructions.

About the very first book I bought about decorative painting. This artist's style is very unique, natural and beautiful without being too loud. Try to paint on the closet, door, bowl, cup, even on the wall. My family liked them a lot.
