5.0 out of 5 stars Great book for all levels
As a one-stroke beginner this book offers great review and guidance of the basic strokes. Projects are very detailed with suggested colors and step by step instructions. Beautiful flowers, vines, leaves, birds, and even butterflies. My instructor, Pam, believes this is the best Dewberry book yet. She teaches advanced students who have reviewed my copy and can't wait...

2.0 out of 5 stars painter of flowers
Donna Dewberry is often on TV selling this book. As an artist myself, I was looking for a book that offered a variety of approaches to painting flowers. Donna's books offer the same approach to painting, where everything looks the same. She is hightly successful and the work produced always looks beautiful, but it was not what I wanted.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great and not great, September 25, 2009

This review is from: Donna Dewberry's Essential One-Stroke Painting Reference (Paperback)
This book isn't for the very beginner in Donna's one-stroke - not as much info as I've seen in her videos and a couple of her early books on how to actually perform the strokes. But if you know her basics, this is a great book to get a lot of ideas for a variety of subjects. I've decided I'm going to work through one project a week for practice and for the fun of it, as they look like most will only take one evening. I figure by the end of it, I'll be pretty well practiced with her techniques and have a lot of good reference material to boot.

5.0 out of 5 stars Donna Dewberry Essential One Stroke, May 6, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Donna Dewberry's Essential One-Stroke Painting Reference (Paperback)
Donna Dewberry is fantastic. Very talented. I have most of her books. I could not afford to go to classes so I purchased all of her videos and as many books as I could find, mostly on e-bay. I can play the videos over and over to get my strokes correct and the books are wonderful visual aids. Highly recommend any of her books but this one is even more detailed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Donna's the best, March 26, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Donna Dewberry's Essential One-Stroke Painting Reference (Paperback)
As with all of Donna's books, she makes painting so easy. I only wish she had been around much sooner. I take great pride in learning how to paint in my waning years thanks to her easy to follow instructions. My great-grandson is interested in learning to paint, and this book will be invaluable as I try to teach him Donna's method.

This review is from: Donna Dewberry's Essential One-Stroke Painting Reference (Paperback)
This is a great Donna Dewberry book. I would highly recommend it for all One Strokers. The designs are beautiful and the instructions are great. I have most of Donna's book, but this one is truly a must-have.

5.0 out of 5 stars Donna's Best Book Yet!, October 23, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Donna Dewberry's Essential One-Stroke Painting Reference (Paperback)
This is Donna's best book yet. It's a good book for beginner painters. The instructions are very visual and easy to follow. There's no question as to what color or brush to use. I am an intermediate painter and this book inspires me with its pages of bright colors, flowing composition and helpful hints.
