5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent illustraions & instructions, May 2, 2000
This review is from: The Encyclopedia of Flower-Painting Techniques (Encyclopedia of Art) (Hardcover)
This book is wonderful, especially for the beginning or intermediate flower painting artist. It has lots of excellent illustrations. It really helped me learn to draw and "paint" a wide variety of flowers.

In the beginning chapter it teaches you about choosing a workspace, tools, & paper. Color theory, light & shade are also covered. Various mediums are then discussed including color pencil, acrylics, watercolor, oil & pastels.

It then covers how to care for the flowers, flower arrangement, and using photos. Next, it discusses the different shapes of flowers & how to draw them. Many flowers are then painted step-by-step, shown in various mediums.

Finally, the drawing and painting of leaves and foliage is shown. There is a small, but beautiful gallery in the back of the book.
